Mat creasers are almost always elaborated by carving, and often take the form of a bird. Ususally they are quite flat, but this one has the hand-comfortable shape of a fat duck. The bulbous body and smoothly sculptured head and tail are reminiscent of some Salish rattles. (Holm, Spirit and Ancestor, 1987)
