Carved bone from a deer antlers
1940-1950
Bone sculptures are known on Bali, made of the bones of the cow, usually the height is 21-24 cm. This tall bone carving is made from the antlers of a deer. Probably the artist found the antlers in the forest and decided to make it into an artwork. Hence the unique character of this work, which required days/weeks to finish looking at the many figures and ornaments on the carving.
