Description

Figure carved as a souvenir based on the moai maea with a large elongated head. The face adorns a straight slit mouth and a large nose with pronounced nostrils. On the ears, a peg can be seen as an ear ornament. The torso is quite long and the nipples are clearly carved out. The end of the figure is formed by a loincloth. Birds and other figures are carved into the back.
