Description: A carved wooden toy of man in standing posture on a pedestal (for support only). The structure is finely polished as identified from the shine. The man represented is in folded hands posture and is wearing a black sleeveless jacket. The lower garment can be observed as a draped cloth which is something costumed like 'dhoti' in eastern India. The lower garment also observes carved designs on the frontal fold and is sectioned into two parts. These items are used as 'honorarium' for an individual or have any marketing significance such as export etc.
