3 Balinese Sculpturen - Bust - Indonesia

On offer at auction: a beautiful, museum-quality collection of three heavy, hand-carved Balinese woodcarvings from the early heyday of Balinese art (early Art Deco and postwar flowering period). All three sculptures are carved from a single solid block of extremely dense and heavy tropical hardwood (most likely Coromandel/Satinwood) and are in excellent vintage condition with no broken parts. Photos are part of the description. The total weight of this set is no less than 7,183 grams (over 7.1 kg), underscoring the absolute top quality and density of the antique timber. The collection consists of: 1. A very elegant and minimalist pre-war/early postwar bust with a serene gaze and tight, geometric veil. The underside shows beautiful, authentic manual chisel marks from a traditional dating tool and a deep patina of age. • Dimensions: 29 x 23.5 x 8 cm | Weight: 2456 grams 2. Seated Janger dancer with Fan headdress (approx. 1950-1970): An expressive and fully detailed sculpture of a seated dancer from all angles. Both the front and back feature exquisitely worked floral patterns in the clothing (Kain) and elegantly carved, slender fingers. The underside shows mild manual chisel marks and a natural shrink crack. • Dimensions: 30 x 20 x 13 cm | Weight: 2401 grams 3. Monumental Dancer with Richly Decorated Headdress. The absolute centerpiece of the lot. A very large bust of a Legong/Janger dancer with an fabulously open-work ceremonial crown (Gelungan) and detailed earrings (subeng). The back is beautifully stylized with geometric slots. The bottom exhibits a perfectly pure pattern of hand-cut incisions and a well-worn patina. • Dimensions: 37 x 18 x 8 cm | Weight: 2326 grams A unique opportunity for the serious collector of high-quality Indonesian art or lovers of high-end vintage design. The sculptures are packed with the utmost care, professionally wrapped, and shipped worldwide with tracking.
