About this item: A crescent moon laughs heartily in this composition by Nyoman Naranata. Evolving tones and grain patterns complement smooth detailing, executed by hand in the lithe perfection of hibiscus wood. Closed eyes accentuate the harmonious mood, as the artisan creates a symbol of profound Balinese joy. Hibiscus wood exhibits colors ranging from white to light gray, dark gray or even black heartwood. This natural occurrence can rarely be replicated, making each carving exceptionally unique. Please expect slight differences in wood grain color and distribution patterns. Theme and artistic quality remain the same. About our Artist: Nyoman Naranata learnt to carve at a very young age. 'Handicrafts are becoming the main wage earner in my village. My experiences have led me to concentrate on carved masks. I learned to design from my father; this craft is taught and learned from generation to generation. The material I commonly used is hibiscus wood. It has good characteristics and it isn't too heavy.'
