Help Identify, What Is This, Is This A? Thread - Collecting Tiki

African, PNG, Maori? I’m not really sure of what the origin is supposed to be. Regardless of the outcome she is going in the bar. I am calling her a “she” due to an anatomically accurate feature in the nether regions but she has no breasts. She is 17” tall and heavier than all get out. Seems to be made of heavy pottery made to look like wood. It has an imprinted mark on the base and I’m not sure if it is numbers or a signature. The form of the figure seems familiar to me and I’m thinking Maori but I can’t pin it down. Anyone have any ideas? [img]http:/
