Wow! This sculpture is Awesome!
I bought this sculpture to sit on my bedroom dresser because what better place to celebrate the ultimate "Love of the Ages" epitomized by Rama & Sita? And, while the pictures on the Novica site are accurate, there's somehow no comparison to how amazingly awesome this sculpture is up close & personal. The "presence" of this sculpture comes across like a quad-shot of cosmic esspresso! The carving is exquisite, kind of jaw-droppingly so. As a trained artist & craftsperson, myself, I am humbled in its presence. Dearest Nyoman Subrata, though this is not the first beautiful carving of yours I own, & though each one is treasured, your Rama & Sita sculpture has now become one of the "crown jewels" in my collection of sacred art. Thank you so much for sharing your gifts with me, for adding to the beauty of my home, & for the sublime awe I experience in the presence of your creations.
Beautiful, well made, soft
I felt nervous about buying this - it was out of my normal price range, and it seemed so 'unnecessary.' I am so glad I bought it anyway! This baby alpaca throw is now one of my absolute favorite things. It is well made, beautiful to look at, and even better to feel during a cold, forbidding northern winter. It brings me joy every day.
Incredible Artwork
Not sure how I stumbled upon this mask in the first place but from the moment I saw it, something about it haunted me. It's beautiful. I could NOT stop thinking about it and finally caved, and I'm so glad I did. The colors, the beadwork, and the craftsmanship are all incredible. This is my favorite piece of art we own, by far. I can't wait to collect more of Awudu Saaed's work.
