Wood Carvings - Ida Bagus Gallery |
Ubud - Ida Bagus
A world famous wood carving gallery near Ubud is the Ida Bagus Marka
with a gallery in Kemenuh. It is set up for tours and taxi drivers make
it one of their stops but it really is worth a look.
The quality of the
carvings is exceptional and they are quite expensive but there is a lot
of room for bargaining.
Many of these pieces are by master craftsmen
and would be great centerpieces for hotel lobbies, businesses, or in the
home.
There is no obligation to buy and no sales pressure like you get in the
low class places so it's worth stopping by for an hour and having a
look.
The village of Mas also has many other shops as well with loads
of beautiful carvings and furniture.
Take your time if you choose to
buy something as the price is flexible. Put a little bit of planning
into it. I still have a 3 meter Komodo dragon in the garage I am trying
to figure out what to do with.
