Dayak charm figures |
A pair of shaman's charms from the Dayak people of Borneo Island, Indonesia. They measure 6" and 4.75" high, respectively. The left foot of each charm has a carved hole where it would have been strung on a necklace. The larger charm holds an object in its outstretched left hand. Early to mid 20th century.
