Details

Dragons rear to face one another, their sinuous forms echoed in the floral tendrils that grow around them. In Balinese culture, the dragon symbolizes safety, protection and shelter. Expertly sculpting suar wood, Seji Taram depicts them in exquisite detail. Each shining scale is individually carved in a superb wall panel.

"Magnificant Detail and Beautiful Piece of Art"

I was, of course, concerned that the piece would arrive in less than secure packaging and get damaged in shipment. It took me nearly 20 minutes to unpack this beauty, and it arrived in perfect condition. And what a masterpiece! The detail is astounding and delicate, but simultaneously sturdy. I would never hesitate to buy another piece of Seji Tarams amazing work again! Its remarkable!
