This elegant lime spatula from the Massim culture of southeast New Guinea is surmounted by a wonderfully composed sitting figure. The curve of the bent arms and legs is quite pleasing-as is the sophisticated top hat on the head of the figure. The spatula probably dates to the 1940s, is 15 ¼" in height and. sold
