Of dark green stone with lighter areas, carved classically in the form of a figure with bent legs and arms to the sides, the head turned with mouth open barring the tongue. The eyes with original shell inlay (one partially missing). The hole to the top of the head worn and drilled trough from each side, with remains of original fiber cord still attached. A large and important example with exceptional power and heft.
Provenance: Property of an East Coast private collector
