I know it is not antique but if you read all the information, Santa Ana Island and Santa Catalina Island where still practising traditional beliefs even in the 1960s so as far as I am concerned we do not know how it was collected. We know the social context of the form. Could quite possibly have been the kind of thing missionaries bring back.
Interesting made for the market stuff here. Some what different? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzNJ_km93S8 Last edited by Tim Simmons; 3rd December 2020 at 04:43 PM. |

Do not compare it to this type of market work. It is very different, to start with it carved from a heavy palmwood not not timber like the gift market carvings as shown here.
