Description

Polynesian, probably Samoan, ca. mid to late 19th century CE. A hand-made model of an outrigger canoe, featuring a single hull that has been hollowed out with a central mast supported by eleven fiber strings and a crossbar. The outrigger was designed to provide greater stability to the canoe. The indigenous islanders of Southeast Asia developed outrigger canoes for sea travel more than 2,000 years ago. These vessels were used to transport passengers eastward through to Polynesia and New Zealand, and remarkably, they are still used today. Size: 31.25" L x 20.5" H (79.4 cm x 52.1 cm); 22.375" H (56.8 cm) on included custom stand. This piece was featured at Bonhams, New York - "African, Oceanic and Pre-Columbian Art" - May 12, 2011, lot 2054 - with an estimate of $1500 - $2000. Provenance: private Newport Beach, California, USA collection; ex-Bonhams, New York - "African, Oceanic and Pre-Columbian Art" - May 12, 2011, lot 2054. All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back. A Certificate of Authenticity will accompany all winning bids. We ship worldwide and handle all shipping in-house for your convenience. #136117
