Barong embodies protective guardian power and the balance between good and evil in Balinese tradition
Hand-carved rich amber Indonesian wood features a crown of tall radiating spikes, large bulging eyes, and a heavy jaw with bared teeth and curling mustache forms
This mask is one of a kind with scrolled pierced ear forms makes a striking wall display in any home

Barong is the lion-like guardian spirit of Balinese mythology, embodying protective power and the eternal struggle between good and evil that lies at the heart of Balinese ritual and dance. With bulging eyes, a fanged grin, and a fierce expression, Barong stands as a benevolent force warding off malevolent spirits and bringing balance to the home.

Hand-carved from rich amber Indonesian wood, this 13.5-inch mask features a crown of tall sharp spikes radiating outward from the head in a dramatic burst. The face shows large round bulging eyes, a wide flat nose, and an open mouth with a heavy carved jaw and rows of bared teeth, flanked by long curling mustache forms. Round floral medallions sit at the lower corners on either side of the jaw. Large scrolled ear forms with pierced lattice openings extend outward on either side of the head. The warm wood grain is polished to a glowing finish that highlights the dense layered detail throughout the spikes and jaw.

"The statue chooses you.

You know when you find the right piece to bring into your home and into your heart."

~ Kyle Tortora, Founder, Lotus Sculpture ~

The use of a wood polish will keep the wood looking fresh and the colors vibrant.

Wood statues are easy to take care of as they just need some annual upkeep to keep them looking as they did when they were first carved. All the wood used by Lotus Sculpure's artists is dried out for months. Moisture causes cracks in the sculpture as the wood contracts and expands in different temperatures. Our wood has little to no moisture in it assuring that the sculpture is not going to crack in its journey into different climates. Here are some simple tips to keep your statue in good condition:

Dust the statue as needed to prevent dirt build up
To make the statue shine use a natural wood cleaner and a cotton cloth to buff the sculpture

We prefer Old English to polish and buff our statues. The use of a wood polish like Old English will keep the wood looking fresh and keep the colors looking vibrant. For natural wood and painted wooden statues we recommend Old English for lighter woods. For darker wood statues we recommend Old English for darker woods. Lotus Sculpture cleans and polishes each wooden statue prior to shipping them to the customer.

We recommend keeping wooden statues in an indoor environment. Wood statues can go outside however, they will wear more quickly and develop an antique appearance. If you would like to put a wood statue from Lotus Sculpture outside and keep the same appearance of the sculpture we would recommend first coating the statue with a couple of layers of sealant or polyurethane. We would then recommend placing the statue in a partially covered area. The more exposure to the elements the more the statue will wear over time.
