Papua New Guinea Sepik ancestor figure with cowrie shell and feather decorations

Vintage or rather antique Papua New Guinea Sepik ancestor figure with cowrie shell and feather decorations. It had an accident a few decades ago and the bits of it got broken as you can see on the photos, the stand and wooden stem to fit it on (to the stand) were added much later. I find that the total assembly makes it look like a Picasso sculpture. It stands just over 50 cm tall.
