      Pounder 
         
        Toricelli Mountains, Western Sepik River 
19th Century 
Previous Collection: David Rosenthal, CA 
 
Of minimalist abstract form this pre-contact pounder possesses raw organic movement; the flame like sculptural quality of the terminal creates this motion.  The surface is deep and varied with encrustation's from great age; and the bottom pounder area shows extreme wear from generations of use. In excellent condition. 
 
This Pounder stands 24.5" in height.
