This is a Witco decor piece from the Viking or from the Conquistador (Pre-Columbian) line. As opposed to the Tiki and Modernism lines, these Witco genres are not really as desirable for collectors and Tikiphiles. So besides sentimental value (?) to your family, I cannot say what it would be worth, it solely would depend on IF someone wants it, and how much.

Even though it is not "Tiki", a whole living room set in matching style might be so outrageous that it could be cool to build a non-Tiki rumpus room around it, with shag carpeting and other period decor like Spanish Armada or Viking ships and helmets - but you gotta find someone who's willing to go that far out! C'mon folks, who's gonna do it !? :D

You gotta post pictures of it all, though. Folks on this site generally don't like to see it to be used as "value-estimate getting" site only by first time posters, but if you contribute with more photos, and a story where it was bought, i.e. give it some cultural context, this could lead to an interesting discussion of "ugly duckling" Witco. :)
