Ducks are often related to cheerfulness, loyalty and protection. These sweet birds inspire Java's Ira S. to hand-carve cheerful wood sculptures from bamboo and teak wood. This time, Ira depicts a duck as a hard-working elf wearing the traditional Christmas attire and a little green hat.

Throughout history, doves have inspired messages of peace and unity. Balinese artisan Made Wirata also draws inspiration from these winged friends to hand-carve a suar wood sculpture of two loving doves atop a globe.

""Where there is love, there will be love. Where there is love, there will be a feeling of peace, both within yourself, your family, and society in the world," says the artisan. "I hope the world will always be at peace. When the world experiences peace, a harmonious world will be created, and the economy will be improving, as part of a peaceful world.

"If we look at the character of doves, we know why they were chosen as a symbol of peace," the artisan continues. "Doves do not like to kill when looking for food, and do not like to fight when attacked by predators.

"Now, in the world, there is so much strife between humans, so much murder, greed, and injustice. Hopefully, humans can imitate the character of the dove sharing feelings of affection, tenderness, and love. This is how the world will become peaceful and serene."

Designed by Ira S., this statuette makes a great gift for a grandfather or anyone interested in WWII. Balinese artisans use bamboo root for the duck's body and durable teak wood for his body, diligently hand carving the soldier with thoughtful details. Painted in WWII bomber garb, this duck is ready to fly.
