Wood batik ornaments, 'Parang Warriors' (set of 4)
By Ayanna
Makes me smile
I get a little happy every time I see these ornaments. I had originally put them on a Christmas tree--they were the extra special touch among all the traditional stuff. My family thought they were cool and even wanted some. And actually, they are still on display, long after the Christmas decorations were put away.
Ikat cotton duster, 'Kartini in Black'
By Beverly
Everything I hoped for!
This beautiful, comfortable duster is true ikat, with all the lovely texture and pattern of my favorite weave. Ive seen so many imitations, but this is the real thing. I wore it to a dinner party Saturday night and enjoyed every minute of wearing it. I look forward to wearing it for years to come.
Wood mask, 'Watchful Barong'
By jonesparg
Third artwork by members of the Subrata family
I purchased my first Subrata Barong mask 25 years ago, and it guards the door of the family house since that time. When I established my own consulting business and needed a work apartment I went to Novica to see if I could find another piece by the Subrata Paterfamilias, Nyoman Subrata, who carved our old Barong mask and also a beautiful mer-person sculpture that I have at work. I was sad to see that he had left us, but delighted to see that another family member carries on his legacy. Very happy with this new Barong, who watchfully guards the door to my work residence.
