Description

Wooden pipe with carved face. The pipe is long with a thick round outcropping at midpoint, hollowed. Above, the wood is evenly wrapped for 7 cm with thin coiled copper wire, up to where a smooth round head is carved. The face is flat with a long nose decorated with four incised circles. Two eyes sit to either side of the nose, made of embedded small red beads. Three small holes are bored into the top and sides of the head. An incised ring has been cut in the wood near the bottom end of the pipe.
