Delivery EstimateA proud cobra crowns this beautiful woman, her portrait patiently coaxed from warm hibiscus wood. Smiling serenely, the elegant features represent a Balinese queen. This mask exemplifies the painstaking artistry of Nyoman Naranata. "The glory of leadership that assembles in a single snake on her forehead," he muses.
The artisan carves the mask from hibiscus wood. This wood varies widely in its tones and patterns, thus each mask is an absolutely unique work of art.
