Antique Questions Forum / Religious carved wood pole statue
« on: May 29, 2015, 04:30:14 pm »
Hi,
I was searching about and came across this wood statue. First impression I assumed it reflected Judaism with the star craved on the forehead, though this is purely a guess. The carving shows some age as it doesn't appear contemporary, however I'm assuming it's mid entry given the type of nails in the base.
I'd like to know more about the piece as it's interesting to say the least.
It measures 31" tall, 3.5" wide, with the base being 5" wide.
Any details would kindly be appreciated, I would like to further my understanding.
Thanks for checking out my post.
