[QUOTE="2manybooks, post: 2207962, member: 8267"]Not a loom shuttle. The wood looks like a tropical species. And it looks like one of the creatures depicted is a stingray - common in tropical waters. Can you provide dimensions? How deep is the slot on the top - a shallow carving or deep enough to be a container for something? I think [USER=50]@say_it_slowly[/USER] is on to something with Solomon Islands. Perhaps it is a replica of a slit drum, made for tourists.[/QUOTE]
