Yes, it is Nawasari, made of moose antler from Bali and I coated with light mineral oil. Photo taken with flash using smart-phone.

This would probably have a better, less plasticy look if you wiped off the oil and used natural light instead of flash.
Honestly Wayne, i would venture that this is only just passible carving skills for Balinese carvers.

Anthony, would it be possible for you to give us four full length shots of this carving? Front, back, each side, taken in open shade, natural light.

Doing a sectional close up of a detailed carving never permits the full beauty of the object to be appreciated.
