Original Balinese Naga temple carving in teakwood from Indonesia, mid 20th century, mounted on a custom stand and measuring 70 cm high, 16 cm wide and 7 cm deep, with a weight of 1806 g and good condition.
Description from the seller
Temple ornament representing the dragon (Naga) from Bali Indonesia, this is not a remake but an original one! Pls look closely to the patina of the old jati (teak wood), it is mounted on a custom made stand and reaches a height of arround 70 cm A true special find from Umulas in Bali. The temple was demolished and we took out several items to save from burning.... there is a slight color difference between the two sides as one side was exposed to the sun for many years... I don't thinks these "flaws" will diminish the item but just tell a story about its age and originality!
