Balinese Holiday Gift Guide People and Portraits Gifts

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.

This is such a unique piece. My sister moved to Florida near the beach. I thought giving her a mermaid sculpture was very appropriate. She loved it!

I got this for my adult son for his birthday. We played exactly like this when he was a toddler. It’s beautiful and he loves it. Thank you for the artist for such a lovely piece.
