Molluccan Chieftan’s Pendant

Leti Island, Molluccas, Indonesia, Oceania

14 inches, hammered metal

One of two mask-like object which were purchased 35 years ago in Kalimantan, Indonesia, when the former owner was working there on a oil project. It appears to be from Leti. However, I’ve also been told it is probably a copy made in Bali.

This particular mask is illustrated in the book, "Masks from Around the World."
