We call this the Tizar special: He is loneley without a name, but he can be found on page 229 of 'Voices of the Puppet Masters' with his dalang. He is a tall boy almost 32" and a special piece to have.

The wayang has a strong tradition in the world of Java and Indonesia, representing the struggle between good and evil. This rare Wayang Golek puppet is on a base and stands a little over 33". He can be removed from the base and both the head and arms can be moved. It has very finely detailed carvings on the head, with vivid color and detailed paintings. The body is beautifully decorated in sarong and jacket. Each Wayang Golek puppet is individually carved, painted and dressed by hand making each unique. They are made for the artists who make the puppets for Asep Sunarya (puppet master) who performs worldwide. These are Indonesia's finest Wayang Golek puppets. A great piece of art.
