AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A small traditional charm from Borneo, made from a strongly curved wild-boar tusk fitted into a dark wooden handle. The two elements are firmly joined with fibre bindings, giving the object a simple yet powerful sculptural appearance. The tusk displays an attractive natural colour and surface patina, while the wooden section shows signs of age and handling. Length: 12 cm. A distinctive and appealing collector’s piece.

Seller's Story
my wife Paula van den Berg and I, Koos Tuber, both anthropologists, traveling a lot through Papua New Guinea and West Papua (formerly Irian Jaya), Solomon Islands and Vanuatu (formerly New Hebrides). We love local tribal arts, we collected thousands and thousands of artifacts, all authentic, sometimes old, sometimes more recently but mainly used objects in local traditional cultures. We are happy to give more detailed information about the artifacts we sell here on Catawiki. Please feel free to contact us.
