durable art

Celebrating the royalty of Indonesia, Nyoman Indrawati Subrata of the Subrata Family creates this depiction of a Balinese woman. Carved from suar wood, she wears an ornate headdress that is painted by hand with white frangipani flowers and gold-tone accents. This wall sculpture is named Tapel Kraton, meaning "royal woman" in Balinese.

The artisan carries on the extraordinary art work of her late father, Nyoman Subrata.

A butterfly alights on the face of a beautiful woman with scarlet lips. Or perhaps it is two birds, facing each other as if in a test of wills. By Gusti Ngurah Semarajaya, the enigmatic hibiscus wood mask is painted by hand. It poses on a stand of guagule wood.

Compact and brimming with Balinese charm, this wallet for men by artisan Maura Marlyna combines tradition and practicality. The handwoven endek fabric showcases intricate ikat designs in earthy shades of brown, black and red while leather accents add a touch of durability. Perfectly sized for modern life, it keeps essentials close at hand while carrying a piece of Bali’s heritage in every stitch.
