I have been collecting for almost 50 years and purchased all my items from the most reputable sources but mostly at auction in London. The majority of purchases were made in the 1960's-80's when good things were available on a regular basis. I will be selling over 1000 items in the next few months so be sure to bookmark the Sunnytampa seller page as I will be adding rare and interesting items on a regular basis. If you are interested in bidding on multiple items, please not that I will combine shipping and make it point to never profit from shipping. Read our feedback and bid with confidence. This is a rare Dyak headhunter’s helmet ornament from Borneo dating to about 1850. It represents an ancestor in a seated position with a serene countenance which is indicative of a natural passing and not having been beheaded by an enemy as was so often the case. This figure was mounted on the split rattan helmet which was worn by all Dyaks and served to notify all that the wearer was from a family of survivors and to be feared. It is 3 3/4 inches high and in condition as shown. ZC72 Shipping options: Priority Mail shipping includes full insurance. I am always happy to combine shipping and charge actual shipping cost only-no packing or handling charges. Created by eBay Blackthorne ver. 3.1.120.0 Place a Bid!
