POST 3
41.5" high (figure is 22" high) x 4.25" wide x 2.75" deep
$400
SOLD
Despite this post's appearance we see no real evidence of tribal use so it was probably made to be sold.
It was possibly carved from an old plain post. Note the texture of the post on the left arm, the buttocks and possibly the forehead.
Note that the iron rod from the base is visible in back several inches until it hits solid wood.
