This is a wonderful and unique Hand Carved Wood Savi Crocodile Face Hook from the Iatmul people of Papua New Guinea. This mask has the powers of the ancestors and is considered to be a guardian mask to protect the residents of the village. Hooks has both utilitarian and ceremonial functions, and are suspended from the rafters by a cord, and they are used to safeguard food, clothing, and other items, which are placed in baskets or string bags. This would be a fabulous food hook to add to your home or collection.
