[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 10179270, member: 2844"]Could have been made from driftwood. I agree, it does look like the Kon-tiki face on the expedition sail. Maybe a souvenir from Rapa Nui/Easter Island? The use of driftwood makes sense for a possible Rapa Nui origin, because there aren't many trees on the island. It bears no resemblance to Norman carvings imo. Except for the beard, but obviously that is not something to go by.:playful:[/QUOTE]
