Hand Carved Wood Cat Sculpture from Balinese Artisan, "Short Haired Cat"
Kitty's inquisitive but docile gaze is irresistible in this sculpture from Bali's Nengah Sudarsana. The artisan masterfully captures the cat's relaxed pose and expressive face, right down to the whiskers. The sculpture is carved by hand of native suar wood with a natural finish that highlights the wood's grain.

"Short Haired Cat"
Very nice carving with cute face. The suar wood grain on my cat looks like tabby markings. Securely shipped. I appreciate that it is signed and dated. Thank you.

"Bufflehead in excellent detail!"
I already have Nengah Sudarsanas hooded merganser. I was so impressed I wanted another of his pieces. The bufflehead looks great next to my merganser. So lifelike and accurate.

"Beautiful gift!"
I gave the relaxing cat to my friend who loves all animals & recently lost one of her 5 cats to old age. So this one reminds her of Stormy. The workmanship with the wood is amazing, excellent work! Thank you!

"Buffleheads are my favorite.."
We live in by the water where the buffleheads play, and they are so fun to watch! Nengah has done a beautiful job with these and I m so pleased to have a pair of them to enjoy all year long, even after the real ones migrate.
