Two horn carvings of a pedanda, a Balinese priest
1930-1950
Rare objects.
Masterly carved, the artist must have a full control and understanding of the material.
Most likely carved by I gusti Lanang Djlantik from Iseh, Karangasem.
He is depicted with a photo in the book "Bali, ATLAS KEBUDJAAN" Dr Goris and P L Dronkers (4-67).
This photo shows Djlantik carving a similar pedanda horn carving.
Until now I had never seen such a carving.

Wooden bust of a white boy made by a Balinese woodcarver.
1950-1970
Remarkable bust, made of heavy wood, and most likely carved as a result of a special request from the parents.
On Bali most of the visiting tourists wanted to take home a souvenir. Many chose a woodcarving, and busts, especially djanger busts, were very popular.
This young boy does not fit in the above mentioned category.
The gifted carver paid a lot of attention to details, and maybe the parents chose this carver for his bust-making reputation.
