part of a house or door panel - Aso - Iban Dayak - Indonesia

Iban Dayak part of a chief's house, wall or door Country: Indonesia, Kalimantan (Borneo) Island: Kalimantan (Borneo) Tribe: Dayak people Origin: purchased from an antique dealer in Yogja Life span: around 1850 Material: ULIN wood (hardwood) with a beautiful patina Dimensions: 33x18x6 cm (on stand height 40 cm / included) UNIQUE item, part of an old Dayak house depicting a mythical ASO figure. This piece is carved from a single block of wood, very heavy local hardwood, weighing more than 3.7 KG!!! It shows one of the most famous traditional Aso motifs of the Dayak. Although this piece shows signs of drying cracks, the carved decoration is wonderfully rich. The patina, indicating considerable age, combined with the elegant design, makes it a very interesting ethnographic object. I have sold similar items before, but never this old and never this beautiful! If you look at the photos, you can see the patina and the state of the old ulin wood, which gives it originality and age. A magnificent collector's item / museum piece. It is supplied with a custom-made iron stand on which the sculpture reaches a height of 34 cm. • The items are carefully packed and shipped within 1 day via PostNL (including track & trace information) • The tracking will be updated on your Catawiki account once your parcel is delivered.
