Shuttle
from a Weaving Loom
Lombok, Indonesia
19th Century
The artistic quality of this weaving loom is fantastic. On the top is
a stylized man riding a mysterious animal; perhaps a mythological creature.
Then extending downward in an almost crescent shape is a beautiful design
carved in high relief. The overall patina is incredible it is deep and
well handled. In the center, where the loom hit the object, is extreme
wear, proof positive of years of use. In excellent condition.
The piece is 8.5 inches tall.
SOLD / IN 406
