In depth
IMO the quality of carving in this new sumatran (?) WOOD hit is very very good.
From surface to core there are two level of very detailed carving.

Sorry Mamat
Is the "Solo Ganesh with silver inserts" hit made by the same carver? (The hit is just behind the two pics where there is the Sulawesi hit) thanks Marco Last edited by Marcokeris; 12th April 2010 at 10:38 PM. |
