Dyak Tribal Carved Horse Skull/jaw, C1900
A very rare and large antique Dyak tribal carved horse head and jaw bone, c1900. The Dyak were traditionally head-hunters from Borneo, and have a long history of decorating human and animal skulls.
This is a very impressive piece, one of the best examples we have seen. The quality of the carving/decoration is stunning - with the head extensively decorated with hunters, crocodiles, fish, a turtle, a female fertility figure, etc.
It has aged well, with good colour/patina. Overall condition is very good, with only a few teeth a little loose.
Size: 47cm long x 27cm tall x 20cm wide.
