Antique Dayak Carved Horn Spoon With Bird Motif, Borneo,

Antique carved horn spoon from Borneo (Kalimantan), attributed to the Dayak people.

The handle is finely carved with two interlocking stylised bird heads, a powerful and recurring motif in Dayak art, symbolising protection and the spiritual world. The decoration is completed with geometric chip-carved patterns, characteristic of traditional tribal craftsmanship from this region.

Made from dark polished horn, the spoon shows a beautiful natural patina acquired over time. Both sculptural and functional, this piece was likely a domestic or ceremonial object, and today stands as a striking example of Indonesian ethnographic art.

Length: 11 cm.
Good condition.
