Wounaan Indian Alligator Under Stump Tagua Nut Carving-Panama 20121630L

Now here’s a little imagination. I suspect the artist saw this scene along a river and decided to recreate it. I’m glad he did.

The piece is signed by Lagarto from a village named Capeti. What we have is an alligator nestled under a tree stump in the swamp.

Every tagua carving is a one-of-a-kind treasure.
