AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Indonesian art with handmade Wayan figures. These Wayan figures are carved and decorated with detailed batik motifs, made from selected wood that is light yet sturdy, perfect for a wooden support block. The smaller figure has no wooden support block and lacks a small rod for the arm, which does not detract from its beauty. They were brought from Java in 1970. The largest is 36 cm high and 13 cm wide, the smaller 28 cm high and 13 cm wide. They weigh together 253 g and are shipped via bpost Belgium with track and trace, carefully packaged.
