Description
20061
c. early–mid 20th century. Carved wooden cudgel or club featuring hand-painted decoration in a Mesoamerican style, with geometric bands and stylized motifs in red, green, yellow, and black. The surface shows carved detailing beneath the paint, adding texture and depth to the overall design. Likely produced as a decorative or tourist piece drawing from traditional forms, rather than a functional weapon, with strong folk art character and visual presence.
Wear consistent with age, including paint loss, surface scratches, and areas of fading throughout. Minor dings and abrasions to wood. Structurally solid with visible age and use.
