Large 27" Pair Vintage 1960 Indonesian and similar items

Stunning Pair of Vintage 27" Indonesian Wayang Golek Rod Puppets Enhance your collection or home decor with this striking pair of authentic Wayang Golek puppets from West Java, Indonesia. Standing at an impressive 27 inches tall, these are not common souvenir sizes, but substantial "statement pieces" that showcase the rich theatrical history of the Sundanese people. Artistry Detail: These puppets represent noble characters from the great Hindu epics. Each figure features a hand-carved wooden head with a traditional garuda mungkur (winged headdress) and a refined, hand-painted expression. They come dressed in their original ceremonial attire, including: ? Intricately patterned Batik wrap-around skirts. ? Black velvet vests adorned with gold-tone sequins and beadwork. ? Original bamboo control rods for the arms and central support. Condition Provenance: Dating to the mid-century (Circa 1960?s), this pair displays a beautiful vintage patina. The wood carving remains sharp, and the colors are vibrant. As is common with authentic vintage pieces, there is minor age-related wear to the paint and fabric, which only adds to their character and story. Additionally, the left arm on the female puppet has a crack that can be easily repaired with glue if you choose to do so. Final photos show visual display of these imperfections.
