Balinese Snake Sculpture

I was struck by the design and theme of this item looking at it on the Novica website. I ordered it and was even more impressed viewing it at home. The detail is amazing. Every cut is perfect. To me this item represents power and beauty. It is a wonderful addition to my art collection.

Every since finding some of Jon Anderson's creatures in a gift shop in St. Augustine, I have been a big fan. The detail work is just astonishing. I will buy from Novica again, as the packaging was VERY beautiful and very protective for the long journey from Bali. Great communication on their end, as well as updates on shipping. It arrived a week earlier than expected. This baby snake will be a keepsake for years to come.

I purchased this coiled snake as well as the cobra wooden sculpture and I am so glad I did! I have never seen such craftsmanship in a wood carving. These snakes look as though they required intense labor and incredible mastering of the wood carving craft. I walk by them many times during my normal day and each time I look at them and am in awe at the presence they elude...at times I find it unbelievable that someone could carve with such realism, such complexity, and with a beauty that was given to these creatures by our creator as only he/she could do...
