    Hello thanks for looking hoping to get some info this sculpture such as age and what the paper label might have said, measures about 4" wide x 2 1/2" high? IMG_2304.JPG IMG_2305.JPG IMG_2307.JPG

    The 'ndia' bit could be part of the word Indian. Which wouldn't refer to the carver, but maybe part of the name of the shop it was sold in, or a place name?
    If so, it brings us to: does anyone know a place or shop called Indian -omal---?

    Funny how the mind works, when I saw your post I quickly thought what if says From Alaska, but looking at the label off and on [for weeks], From Alaska never occurred to me. Thanks everyone for the input!
