Wounaan Indian Hand Carved Tagua Nut Anteater-Panama 20122865L

Folks, this is an extraordinary anteater tagua carving. It is not only well carved, it is nicely polished and the artist left flecks of the shuck or outer covering of the tagua nut on part of the anteater.

A small point and yet important point is how he finished the front paws. They are used for tearing up ant mounds and termite nests.

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