hindu statues

Just arrived today, this bracelet by Komang Suastra is beautifully constructed and elegantly designed. The Borobudur and Naga link chain that are so much a part of Indonesian culture combine to provide a very formidable and powerful piece of jewelry that certainly deserves the name, "Basuki Dragon". Even the heavy duty box clasp with safety latch that holds the bracelet together has a slight internal curve to match the curve of the chain. All in all, an outstanding piece of silverwork. Also, as always, the item was well packed for its' journey half way around the world and delivery via the express shipping option was very fast. Once again, thank you, Komang Suastra and thank you, Novica for world class quality and service.

I bought this sculpture to sit on my bedroom dresser because what better place to celebrate the ultimate "Love of the Ages" epitomized by Rama & Sita? And, while the pictures on the Novica site are accurate, there's somehow no comparison to how amazingly awesome this sculpture is up close & personal. The "presence" of this sculpture comes across like a quad-shot of cosmic esspresso! The carving is exquisite, kind of jaw-droppingly so. As a trained artist & craftsperson, myself, I am humbled in its presence. Dearest Nyoman Subrata, though this is not the first beautiful carving of yours I own, & though each one is treasured, your Rama & Sita sculpture has now become one of the "crown jewels" in my collection of sacred art. Thank you so much for sharing your gifts with me, for adding to the beauty of my home, & for the sublime awe I experience in the presence of your creations.

Exquisite design and detailed finishing make this an excellent work of art. A great addition to my collection of statuettes and a real conversation piece.
