This handmade suar wood mask direct from Bali artisan Nyoman Subrata is just as beautiful as the goddess it was carved to represent. Cili, which literally means "small and beautiful", is a symbol of beauty and fertility in Indonesia and is meant to represent Sri, the goddess of rice and fertility. This intricate, hand carved mask is made from rich suar wood with unique wood grain.

"Beautiful but"
This mask has so much detail and is beautiful! However, it s hard to hang since there is not hook or hold in the back only a very thick wood loop.
