Dayak Amulet, Borneo, Indonesia
This fine carved wooden statuette represents a stylized human figure, with sober features and a surface marked by an ancient patina. It is in the tradition of the protective amulets worn by the Dayak people of Borneo to guard against physical and spiritual dangers.
Visible wear, with losses of material and patina, testifies to its prolonged use.
Good condition, an old lack at the back of the cap.
