A large, framed ceremonial object from Papua New Guinea. The upper portion is carved wood with black geometric designs. Woven into the bottom of the wood section is raffia or long dried grass. It is attached to a light, neutral, finely woven background. The deep frame has a shadow box look for this three-dimensional piece. The frame is light-colored and lightweight wood and is wired in the back, ready for easy hanging, and has extra support built into the back so it's sturdy. The frame is 46" wide, 4" deep, and 68" high. The art object is between 11.5" wide for the wood carving and about 18" wide at the bottom of the grass skirt part, and about 56" high.
