Sculpture in the style of Art Deco Pitah Maha Bali - Indonesia (No Reserve Price)
Art deco woman from Bali, made in the style best known from the Pitah Maha period almost 100 years ago. Topless was normal in these days, it shows a woman probably sitting by the river. The Pita Maha period was known for the modern art style in Bali just like in the west. The statue is made from the heavy rare sawo wood what was known carvers from Mas used this wood in the 1930s for the best quality.
Sold by Roland Smeets, Balinese woodcarving collector and seller of Balinese antique & quality woodcarvings, expert and author of the book Understanding Balinese Woodcarvings which reveals the tales and stories behind the statues. With 300 statues and more then 600 photographs, this 3,7Kg heavy book is a must have for collectors, experts and museums. I live in Algarve mostly so shipping is from Portugal
