Scale: Unknown. A model of a killick from Gorgona Island, Pacific Coast of Columbia consisting of two thick crescent shaped arms made of wood. The arms are notched one on top of the other and curve upwards, tapering to a point at their ends, almost encapsulating the oval-shaped stone. The four rods are then dowled into these arms and are tied together by twine around the middle of the stone and at the top of the neck protruding throughto form two V-shaped features.
