Mounted Carved Lava Stone Human Face Sculpture
About
An incredible, mounted, carved lava stone face sculpture. Origin unknown, though likely Polynesian, a wonderful, primitively carved piece with deep, exaggerated features. Seemingly part of a larger work, possibly a bas relief. Set on a contemporary, steel mounting. A stunning example of Primitive arts; an evocative and alluring decorative item.
