They are known for their weaving and this is typical of a functional piece used on a narrow-band loom which would separate the threads and allow the shuttle to pass through.

These carvings are typically human or animal heads and have no sacred meaning. 10" H by 2.5" W by 2.25" D with a detachable black stand 5.5" W by 3.25" D See less
