French Bulldog Standing - Wooden Sculpture for Animal Lovers
Dogs are faithful companions. This wooden sculpture made of Soar wood, a piece of Indonesian woodcarving art, is even more faithful. The unique piece of a French Bulldog is a lifelong companion. The fine workmanship of the facial expression with the broad head and the muscular part of the dog testify to craftsmanship. Realistic the representation of his nature: muscular, agile and wiry. The arched forehead and short tail are typical of the breed. Unusual in this unique specimen are the hanging ears.
Only about 2 kg heavier than the living specimen, the wooden sculpture weighs in at a handy yet robust 15 kg. With its shoulder height of 45 cm and a length of 70 cm it looks confusingly similar to a real French Bulldog. Craftsmanship as a personal "protector" in your own home.
Innovative artist collective on Bali
The French Bulldog is a unique specimen, formed by a Balinese artist collective in finest detail work. We came across the small manufactory during our last trip to Indonesia. Their woodcarvings are characterized by the realistic representation of the figures. The attention to detail, classical techniques combined with innovative approaches ensure the high standards the artists have.
The wondrous rain tree - Suar wood and its qualities
The rhinoceros owes its authenticity not only to the execution but also to the special material from which it is carved. Suar - the wood of the wondrous rainbow tree - captivates with its contrasting grain between chocolate and golden brown. The relatively soft and rather light material is used for the construction of musical instruments.
The magical: In the film The Land of the Rainbow Tree with Elizabeth Taylor, tropical wood is the protagonist. It is said that the finder of the tree realizes the meaning of life. This acacia species does not belong to the endangered and protected woods.
Care tip: Suar wood tends to crack in variable humidity. Optimally this would be 50-60%. Underfloor heating and placing next to a radiator can increase cracking.
