The gangsa is a melodic instrument mainly used in traditional Balinese and Javanese music. Anak Agung Ary in Bali hand carves this musician and his gangsa from local albesia wood, hand painting the figure in bright colours with an attractive distressed finish. Please note the musician's mallet is detachable.

Any art creation that features owls is sure to grab my attention, and Mr. Arys jewelry box is no exception. The poignancy expressed on the owls faces is remarkable. I returned to the website several times to view the box and felt the same attraction each time. I knew my daughter would treasure this and add it to her owl collection. All the art work is beautifully drawn, with the delicate lines flowing seamlessly from one smooth surface to another to cover the entire box. The artistry does not stop there. To access the contents of this box one must manipulate a clever lock carved into one end. Its the perfect little niche for your tiny treasure.
