finely woven little Native American Wabanaki (encompassing the Micmac

) Most corrugated pottery is attributed to the Anasazi and Mongolian populations

Rather Brilliant 1998 Agelio A S Batle Co Graphite Hand antique retable on wood finely woven little Native AmericanPerhaps Ive come across one of these before in a museum gift shop and didnt really register it, but when I found this graphite hand this week in an antiques (and collectibles!) shop I thought it pretty brilliant! It was cast with a 1998 copyright mark and signature at the wrist, and a quick search revealed it as one of a series graphite sculptures by artist Agelio Batle. Maybe a bit kitschy (hes done a whole series of different hands, objects, etc.)
