Story Behind the Art:
'I am Balinese born and was named Nyoman Naranata by my parents in the traditional baby ceremony in 1970. When I was just an elementary student, the art of woodcarving was imprinted on my everyday life. Handicrafts are becoming the main wage earner in my village. As times passes and I get older, my experiences have led me to concentrate on carved masks. I learned to design from my father, this craft which is taught and learned from generation to generation. The material I commonly used is hibiscus wood. It has good characteristics and it isn't too heavy.'
The handcrafted nature of this product will produce minor differences in design and sizing. Subtle variations will occur from piece to piece, adding to its unique qualities. Measurements may vary slightly.

The craftmanship is excellent. It is an exciting piece of art. How ever, when stated it can vary some what in appearance I did not think it would be so DRASTIC. I was viewing it as a light color as the pic shows almost white. I would have been satisfied if it was a little say less than white. Mine was much darker than anticipated with the cheek and chin area closer to a walnut color. It was very disappointing after seeing the picture.
