Hand Sculpted Mahogany Deer
This beautiful deer was completely carved on the island of Bali by a skilled Master Carver from Ubud. This work is absolutely stunning in it’s detail! The form is very elegant and graceful. It is amazing to think that the Artist only used simple hand tools to carve this from one solid chunk of mahogany! It has been hand rubbed to a deep rich smooth finish! The wood is very high quality, tight grained, smooth as satin to the touch! A great work of Balinese art!
I acquired this carving several years ago, and at that time it had already been carved for at least 5 years, so I would estimate that this was carved around 1990. The wood is stabilized and cracking will not occur as is so common in many of the recent carving coming out of Bali today.
You will be getting the exact carving you see listed here. This is not a stock photo, but a one of a kind stunning work of art! I aquire all of my fine art directly from the artist, assuring you the finest quality Balinese art<a href="http://balisarong.wordpress.com, already imported to the USA.
Great attention has been used in the details, even the antlers look life like. The bottom of the deer has been carved! I have included photos of this. Please see them below.
Gorgeous in many types of decor, country, lodge, Asian or modern! Sure to make a statement!
