Description:
Waka Bailer, Tata (waka Bailer), extremely well balanced example in the minimalistic early form. The base extends and terminates with minimalist mania or tiki figure, emphasized with fully incised almond-shaped eyes, perforated nostrils and relief mouth. The body of tata is highly refined with a subtle ridge climbing through the centre surface, which then extends into the handle. Shoulders of tata also offer sophisticated relief lines. The handle morphs into abstract avian form, again with perforated nostrils. The functioning bowl of tata is double lipped in orthodox form, to allow more efficient and vigorous use of the object. Overall surface scraping. Finished with very rich dark patina. Length 50 cm, width 21.5 cm, depth14 cm. Y14980
