Subject:Carved wood figure?
Posted By: Adam Wed, Jul 16, 2008 IP: 66.228.20.70
Hello again, This wood figure is 10-1/2" long, flat on one side, I recently found it at an estate sale, any ideas on this one?
Thanks, Adam

Dear Adam

It's possibly part of 20th century up-country Eastern Myanmar temple roof or temple door frame.

It's a folk art, possibily one of the group of dancers or musician.

Have fun

Thanks again, Adam
