KOOKA – Ritual Serving Bowl

A utilitarian or ritual object carved from wood, the Kooka is comparable to the umete — a large carved bowl traditionally used to serve food or during ceremonial rituals.
The Kooka is part of the tangible cultural heritage of the Marquesas Islands and reflects the refinement of Marquesan woodcarving. It demonstrates the ability of local artisans to create pieces that are both functional and deeply symbolic.
