Balinese Wood Carvings

From Mas village near Ubud, Balinese wood carvings showcase centuries-old traditions using sustainable suar wood. A typical mask takes up to 2 weeks to complete, with artisans focusing on expressive facial details that bring Hindu mythology to life. These carvings are 20% lighter than larger alternative souvenirs like wayang kulit puppets, making them easier to transport while retaining rich narrative depth.
