Teak shadow puppet, 'Yudistira'

Anne

Dec 11, 2020

Beautiful

I got this for my husband who studies Indonesian history. When we lived in Indonesia we always wanted one, but at the time could not afford one. It is so wonderful that now such products with amazing craftsmanship are available to those abroad. One of the sticks did break, but that was probably due to the fact our 5 year old couldn't stop playing with it. It is magical.
