Title: Wooden totem?
Post by: Athenry on May 13, 2012, 11:49:46 PM

This is a wooden totem I was just given. Looks slightly Hawaiian to me, but I have no idea about this kind of thing.

It shows a woman, pushing her breasts, standing above a bird or gryphon. It has no markings.

It looks Indonesian to me, but that's about all I can come up with
