This wood carved mask hails from Indonesia. This is a popular form of Indonesian folk art.
This Indonesian mask invokes the mystery and exuberance of an ancient culture. Indonesians had a unique connection to nature, art and astrological systems. This mask and chimes embodies all aspects of these connections, from the mix of angular and curved lines to the stark contrast of the color schemes and carved figures. These masks & wind chimes celebrate human history and the mystery of life.
Each mask is hand-carved by an Indonesian artist from a single piece of wood, styled according to traditional Indonesian art, and stained in lasting colors. The quality of this art form is exceptional. There is no doubt that any one of these masks and wind chimes will add depth and culture to any space they grace.
