This is a wonderful Carved Wood Canoe Bailer from the Milne Bay in Papua New Guinea. Bailers are simple scooping tools that canoeists use to remove water from their canoes. The bailer has a heavy butt and a distinctive L-shaped handle. This wooden Bailer is distinctive and unique. Its form is elegant and refined and very sculptural in the form of a mask. The face consists of two protruding eyes and a prominent nose, and the image is surreal and powerful. The bailer is old and well used, with a weathered surface, which is consistent with how it was previously used. This bailer would be a lovely addition to your collection or home.
