LUBA
OFFERING BOWL 1
11" high x16" wide
$400
SOLD

Sculpted as stools and headrests, the male and female figures serve as symbolic supports, or here as handles when worked into the design of ritual offering bowls.

Despite its traditional form and appearance, this bowl exhibits few signs of use or age and was probably made to be sold.
