Hill Tribe Yao Old Wooden Stamp Figure Shaman Priest Witch buy Doctor Ritual Vietnam Tribal Art Folk Handmade Ethnic

Beautiful old stamp figure of the Yao hilltribe.

A very rare figure, possibly representing a mix of dragon and fish with the head of a human. Passed over ritual texts during ceremonies, not actually stamped.

Incredibly rare, the shaman won't accept money as payment for these old items, but instead will only gift them to someone they know and trust, in exchange for gifts of necessities like food.

Very buy tactile. Carved from a single piece of wood. Very rare, fine example.

Age estimate 80-120 years.
