Colima Gingerbread male figure stands approximately 9 inches tall, not including base. The piece is buff in color and has remnants of paint. Incised lines trace a loincloth with faint coloring added. It has convex holes by ears which were used to hold ornaments. Clean break on one leg, re-glued with no touchups. Because it broke on the incised line, it appears invisible. Light damage to genital area, as can be seen in pictures. Highly mineralized. Remnants of paint around legs, arms, neck, and shoulders still visible. We love this piece, we call it ‘Patrick Star’.  Price includes custom stand.  Provenance; the Collection of Mr. Lloyd Morain of Camel, CA; private museum in Band, OR.
