Virgin and Child, carved from Macassar ebony, Balinese religious craft, mid-20th century

A creation from the Christian craft tradition of Indonesia (more specifically, Bali), this sculpture depicts the Virgin Mary holding her child, Jesus Christ.

Crafted from Macassar ebony, this sculpture is truly exceptional, as this type of wood is rare and luxurious, renowned for its alternating bands of dark and light brown.

The realism of this sculpture is sublime, highlighting human and maternal values, with a touch of Indonesian folklore (the headdresses) adorning the Virgin and her son to preserve a sacred character, in keeping with Balinese folk art. Sculptures of this kind are one-of-a-kind works, often made to order.

Fast and careful shipping to France, Europe, and worldwide.
