“A powerful visual”

I have always appreciated hand crafted objects of art. I bought this to use inn a theatrical production to sit on top of a fireplace mantel. However, I kniew I would also want to personally keep it after the production closes as I recognize the snake as a potent symbol. I am delighted with the quality of this carved statue. It really is quite exquisite and unusual. Thank you Wayan for your craftmanship.
