Hi Carlos,

Ok thanks but that plaque must have hung somewhere, europe or USA? Spain?
a specific house maybe ?
For very scarce items like this it should be enourmous if there was more info...

best regards,

Arjan

Thumbs up Lovely !
Certainly looks like a ceremonial piece that would be borne by a Datu's retainer .

This looks pretty old judging from the wormholes .
