Traditional Batik Painted Mask (Indonesia) |
|
| |
Add oriental charm to your decor with this intricately crafted batik mask from Indonesia. Batik is a traditional Asian art form dating back thousands of years that can render color and design to fabric in a way no sophisticated machinery can. Although techniques vary widely depending on region and artist, generally hot wax is used to outline a required design on the fabric and then the artist hand paints color to areas bordered by the lines of molten wax. Indonesia, most particularly the islands of Java and Bali, are the areas where batik has reached the greatest peak of accomplishment. This mask is crafted in your choice of three traditional designs, a royal figure wearing an intricate headdress and bearing a serene smile. It will bless your house with the exotic ambiance of far away lands. When you purchase this handcrafted Worldstock item you are helping to support artisan traditions that date back centuries. The handcrafted nature of this product will produce minor differences in color and sizing. Subtle shade variations will occur from piece to piece, adding to its unique qualities. Measurements are approximate.
