Vintage medicine container made by the Toba Batak people in Sumatra. It has superb details on the figurine & the central column. The stopper has a figure carved with a horned beast on his back & riding atop an animal. They watch over the content: the magical concoctions of the shaman. The central column is made of bamboo & the carved base along with the carved stopper are made from wood. The body of the piece is carved with the Toba Batak calendar & symbols. It is in great condition with some signs of use. This one has lost its little wooden pin to secure it to the central column.
