Figure
Physical description
Carving of spirit(?) figures - two adults and one young. While four legs extend down from the two figures, the feet are mismatched. The human-like figure has their one arm bent with hand on their chin. They have large round eyes, and a long pointed nose. The other large figure is bird-like in appearance, with head held up with long beak partially open. The creature appears to have small ears on either side of its head, and eyes inlaid with light yellowish-brown wood (the right eye is missing, leaving a hole). On this figure's back is a small bird-like child carried in a wrap. Both adult figures wear a skirt, which are joined together.
