This is a Beautiful Papua New Guinea Old Wood Spirit Statue from the Kaminabit Village of Papua New Guinea. This Papua New Guinea standing male ancestral figure is hand carved from a single piece of wood with a beautifully aged old pigmented surface with finely decorated facial features. The best carvers are recognized as being more spiritually powerful. Carvings are seen as temporary and are often discarded after use, as the carvers know they can always create more. Some carvings are considered too powerful to keep after the ceremony is over and are carried away a safe distance from the village and left in the jungle. This would be a great addition to your home or collection.

I deliberating buying this piece for a long time. I realized it was a gamble but I am unmpressed. It looked a lot better in the online listing. The "finely decorated facial features" and the painted areas else were were barely noticeable. It is old and has been exposed to the elements for a long time so what did I expect? It may have been appreciated more by someone else. Too expensive to return. I decided to repaint it and it looks much better, but I won't buy another weathered piece like this again.
