Indonesian Wood Sculpture, "The Embrace"
This evocative abstract statuette by Wayan Rendah truly captures the couple's passionate embrace. Rendah creates this contemporary statement in suar wood, which gives the piece its deep rich color. The couple blends together, demonstrating the true unity that is found in this embrace. Makes an excellent gift for a loved one.

"Wayan Rendah's work is amazing!"
I love how this artist takes something as basic as a piece of wood and turns it into a work of art. The geometry of this piece is simply divine. I'm regularly caught up in the motion of this sculpture.

"Passionate and beautiful"
I bought this as a gift for a newly married couple. It is light (because of the weight of sugar wood) and beautifully carved. It is passionate portrait of a couple in love. Highly recommended.

"What a Showpiece!"
This wooden bottle holder was purchased as a housewarming gift for my son. When he opened the box and started to remove all the packing, to our surprise the snake was cracked at the base. So back it went for a replacement which arrived very quickly. Upon inspection, I was taken back by the extreme work that was put into this piece. It really is breathtaking and definitely a piece of art. You can feel that Wayan Rendah puts his heart and soul in his work. My son was extremely happy with his gift and cant wait to show it off. Such detail makes the snake appear alive. Youre such an artist Wayan. Will definitely purchase items from you again.
