Description from the seller
A splendid hand-carved skull from a solid block of tamarind wood. The lower jaw and the skull head are two pieces fixed on each side by a small tamarind wood pin so that the jaw can open and close. The teeth of the skull are made from cow bones and are meticulously carved to look as close as possible to the real thing. The tamarind wood has a beautiful grain that makes the piece extremely lifelike. For over 10 years we have specialized in sourcing unique pieces across Java, Bali, and Sumatra crafted by the finest artisans. We consider Indonesian craftsmanship to be one of the most sought-after in the world. Shipping will be done by insured mail with proper packaging. The weight is 427.50 g including the base.
