Squatter Man is the ancient interpretation of plasma sky phenomena. Sky patterns caused by plasma dischargers are interpreted as squatter man, stick man, thunderbirds, and the Chinese longevity symbol depending on the culture. This brilliant solid copper and amber piece represents the squatter man. It is constructed from a large natural amber piece, plus a smaller amber rectangle. The copper is hand-crafted from a solid block of copper by a master sculptor. The copper is filed and polished to fit the amber to create the image of the squatter man. The top amber piece articulates.
