Beautiful and ethereal, Cili appears with the divine grace of a goddess in a mask by Komang Agus. He selects the white grain of crocodile wood for this mask, as he expertly carves every minute detail with sublime artistry. Cili is the goddess of fertility and she is also known as Ibu Pertiwi or Mother Earth in ancient Balinese. More specifically, Cili is believed to ensure a bountiful harvest, as this grain represents the main sustenance of the Balinese people.
While searching for Asian wood sculptures on Novica, I saw this particular wood mask. At that moment, I knew that I would be ordering this item. I am overjoyed to own this truly amazing mask. She is absolutely gorgeous and every bit as impressive as the image on Novica's site.

I made a promise to myself that I will always continue this art form and inherit it to my grandson. I hope that the Balinese culture, heritage, and works of art will live forever."
