The unusual shapes and forms of benalu wood, related to the mistletoe, lend themselves to this incredible sculpture from Yudi Suardi in Bali. The artisan carves a fierce lion, mid-roar, as if emerging from a unique piece of benalu wood with a natural finish. The sculpture arrives on a jempinis wood stand.
As each piece of wood is one-of-a-kind, please expect some variation in the shape and size of the sculpture you receive.

"Beautiful"
Yudi Suardi does beautiful wood carving. This lion has a wonderful expression each piece is unique to the piece of wood from which it is carved. Our lion has a slightly smaller face due to the wood piece used but is still very charming. My family found it to be a wonderful gift and appreciated the work that went into the design and execution of the carving. Love that Novica supports the arts and crafts of people from all over the globe and that it is giving these artists a place to showcase their talent !

"Keeps falling over."
Its top heavy and the base is too small so it keeps falling over. Useless.

"Simply Amazing!"
My husband is a true Leo and loves lions, so when I saw this online, I knew it would be a perfect gift for him for Christmas. It arrived carefully wrapped in a very pretty fashion and when my husband opened it, his eyes lit up! He was so surprised and please! Thank you to everyone who helped make it! I am truly grateful!

"Amazing piece of art"
I bought the Lion head, having bought an eagle profile earlier. I just opened it and everyone who has seen it can remark on the craftsmanship. I am astounded. Yudi, your skills are way out. Please keep doing whatever you are doing and let the heavens shower their blessings on you.

"Nice sculpture : Mushroom Charm"
Hi Yudi, I received your Mushroom Charm sculpture. You have several that are all beautiful but this one is my favorite. I love walking in the forest, especially after a rain. The scent that emanates from the ground is incomparable and thats when you can see the largest selection of mushrooms. Here its winter and snow. Your sculpture keeps alive the fragrance I love so much. Thank you so much.

"Cute, sweet"
One of my first ever orders from Novica was a hummingbird in mushrooms by Yudi Suardi. This one has the same clever use of the beak to give the sculpture a feeling of dynamic motion, and its neat because you dont usually see baby hummingbirds in art.

"Beautiful craftmanship"
Hummingbirds are my absolute favorite. They are living on my windowsill and I couldnt be happier about them. I enjoy looking them everyday. I moved to a different area in the world and here are no hummingbirds - this is the next best thing to the real ones. You have to careful when you dust them - the birds are loose and fell off easily - so far nothing serious have happend to them. I am a little bit clumsy sometimes and I hope I will never drop them.
