Om, a mantra used in Hinduism and Buddhism, is transformed into a stunning wall relief panel by Balinese artisan Wayan Rendah. Using local suar wood, the artisan creates a majestic round panel with accents of vines and flowers in great detail, with the ancient Sanskrit letter Om gracing the center. The natural wood grain enhances the elegant design. This fascinating wall panel would make a wonderful addition to home or office decor.

This gorgeous statuette by Balinese artisan Wayan Rendah shows Buddha in a deep state of meditation, holding a water bowl delicately in his left hand while sitting on a lotus flower. Hand crafted from native suar wood, the intricate detailing of Buddha's face and clothing is truly exquisite. The pose in which Buddha holds his right hand is traditionally known as the vitarka mudra, or "The Gesture of Debate."

The perfect symmetry of his features heightens the serenity of this beautiful portrait. Seji Taram depicts Buddha in a relief panel, beautifully sculpted by hand. The mark of enlightenment appears on the master's forehead as he yields himself to meditation.

The Hindu lord with an elephant head graces the lid of a suar wood box. By Eka, this decorative box holds a secret. Four pieces link together like a puzzle to hide personal treasures inside, guarded by the auspicious Ganesha.

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.
