This is my grandfather's wood carving, an Indonesian woodworker live in Jepara and dead years ago. He left his family many woodcarvings, and this is one of them, the best knwon as Ramayana Story.

Dimension : 230 x 100cm include frame

Whole using middle java oak wood

This is very rare antique wood carving, and the funny thing is there always people asking me to sell it.

Well, Im about to share and sell it only if there's an offer above US$ 5,000
