This figure is unique in that it also showcases a carved machete, which is held in the man's right hand, and a stand of bananas on his left. Clearly, he has come from the rainforest, and after a long day of laboring, he wants to make his tool ready for one last possible swing.

It is in excellent condition, with perhaps one small chipped area at the hat's brim in the front and possibly the nose, too. Perhaps this reminds you of a long-ago relative. What a great sentiment to have displayed for all to see. Measures 16 1/2 inches tall by approximately 6 inches at widest. What fabulous artistry these carvings are. Be sure to check out my other listings too. I have many pieces from my personal collection. I just love these hand-carved wooden artwork pieces. The imagination and creativity needed to create this art are beyond my scope---and it is carved out of a single piece of wood! That is astonishing to me.
