Very Precious! A Dream Come True : )
Growing up, I loved the book “ Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There”. In the book was an insect known as a ‘Rocking-Horse-Fiy’. I drew one, of my own interpretation, but I lost all of my things, including all of my drawings, in a fire many years ago and could not quite capture the original thought that I had after that. When I saw this beauty I just had to have him! I was not disappointed either. He is just the cutest! I thank the artist, Togo’s Suyasa, for this wonderful sculpture that he has shared with us. It has made one of the pictures that I drew years ago come to life. Of course this is a beautiful Flying Rocking Horse and not the cute insect from the book but I will hold this beautiful sculpture just as precious to my heart.

I love the way this box is built, colored and painted!
'Javanese Memory' is decorated in a floral batik manner, and is predominately a subtle red with a simple design of rows of 4-petal "flowers" along each side. There are also special batik flowers on the lids of the four separate compartments of the box. I really love having the four compartments with the lovely lids. I love the way Gunadi shaped, designed, and used batik to decorate this beautiful box! P.S. I also have his 'Scarlet Scrolls' box - it is beautiful too! I thank him for his extra special work.
