Hanuman
Hanuman is one of the most detailed
and intricate carvings you may ever see in your life. You can
see from the images above and below, the exceptional skill and
the years of painstaking love that has gone into this work of
art, this piece is nothing short of a miracle. Mr Tulok (pictured
below) is one of Indonesia's master carvers, he has spent over
7 years working on this piece alone. Every time Mr Tulok carved
a detail or polished a part, it was done with great love and skill
not just for his craft but of how important the god of Hanuman
is to the Indonesian people. It was only our friendship with the
master craftsman that he even parted with it.
This piece is a substaintial work of
art, it stands 2.78mtrs (109") high, 1.88mtrs (74")
wide and 1.04mtrs (41") deep and its worth a visit to our
shop just to see it in real life, you will be amazed and taken-a-back
when you first see this exceptional work of art.
