Ornately hand-carved with floral motifs, this Balinese wall relief panel will make an exotic addition to your home decor. Wayan Nuliati presents the panel, which is crafted from suar wood.

Learn from the Balinese and imitate their common practise of burning mosquito coils to chase away these insects. You can do so on this amazing turtle-themed holder where you place the spiral-shaped incense, light it up and let the smoke go through the openings on the lid and dish. Artisan Dewa Putra designs this home accessory handcrafted from porcelain in a beautiful combination of green and brown.

Holding its front paws above its head, a cat reaches toward the sky while sitting in the asana or lotus position. Inhaling and exhaling deeply, the cat practices Hindu yoga in a sculpture by Bali's Nengah Sudarsana. He masterfully carves the suar wood sculpture by hand.

The OM symbol, representing all sounds and symbolizing the essence of the universe, is nestled among frangipani blossoms in this magnificent hand carved suar wood wall relief panel by Balinese artisan Seji Taram.

Known as om or aum, omkara is the root of all sounds, emitted as a mantra during meditation. It is believed all desires will vanish, thus attaining self-realization and the highest of knowledge. This one letter symbolizes the most high in the Hindu pantheon, representing every kind of trinity such as Brahma-Vishnu-Shiva, past-present-future, birth-life-death; creation-preservation-destruction, and waking-dreaming-deep sleep.

Two bamboo boards and one bamboo cylinder beautifully decorated with the pyrography technique are the highlights of these wind chimes hand-crafted in Bali. Artisan Trisna Dewi designs this wonderful outdoor decorative accent with two layers of aluminium pipes that have already been hand-tuned to produce a serene sound. You can hang the lovely wind chimes from a nylon cord at your favorite spot at home.
