About the Item
An antique temple statue carved and hand-painted in Indonesia in the early 20th century. This wooden statue shows an Indonesian dancing character. His dynamism is enhanced by his flying scarves and by his posture. The character wears black adorned clothes with fringes on its legs, and a traditional headdress. The clothes and the face are painted with many details including gold and red colors among others. The statue is quite flat and the back is finished with dark red painting. This early 20th-century Indonesian hand-carved and hand-painted statue once took place in a temple; now it would be an enjoyable decorative item in any home, perhaps in a living room where its lively aspect would please any guest.

Antique Indian Gujarat Hand Carved Temple Carving Statue Depicting a Woman
Located in Yonkers, NY
An antique Indian early 20th century hand carved architectural temple carving from Gujarat, depicting a smiling woman. Originating from Gujarat, India, this antique early 20th-century hand-carved architectural temple carving is a captivating depiction of a smiling woman. This exquisite sculpture captures the essence of traditional Indian artistry, with the woman carved in a frontal position while her legs are delicately portrayed in profile. Her serene expression, enhanced by a slight tilt of her head, radiates a sense of calm and contentment. The intricate details of her headdress, attire, and jewelry highlight the craftsmanship and cultural richness of the region.
The woman's features are beautifully rendered, showcasing a blend of grace and elegance. The carving, with its weathered appearance, speaks to its historical significance and journey through time. The back of the sculpture remains unfinished, adding an authentic touch to its architectural origins, as it was likely meant to be a part of a larger structure or placed against a wall.
This temple carving serves as a striking decorative piece, perfect for adding an exotic and cultural element to any interior space. Whether displayed in a living room, hallway, or study, it brings a sense of history and artistry to the environment. Its craftsmanship and evocative presence make it a conversation piece, inviting viewers to appreciate the skill and cultural significance embedded in this work of art.
