ABOUT US
Exotic Carvings LTD, Founded with love by Linda Cremin
After a trip to one of the most beautiful Indonesian Islands. I found a local village with a variety of fantastic carvings. After looking around and falling in love with the craftsmanship and quality i decided to purchase a few pieces. I had seen similar items back home but for three times the costs, so like any giddy shopper i took my chance! There were some small items at the front of the shop but I was more interested in the bigger carvings which were out the back.
I was blown away with the work and craftsmanship. 5 or 6 local workers were out back carving beauty out of recycled suar wood.
I was sold! I took the plunge and decided i would bring items back to the UK and sell them at highly competitive prices. I Couldn’t wait to get back home and do a little homework to see if the decision that I had made was the right one.
Customer need a full understanding of the nature of wood in a natural environment. It will change colour, it will age. the wood is a piece of art and i cannot Guarantee when and where this will take place. It is recommended to regular treat your carving with quality oil, colour changes are natural using oils or stains will help.
Here at Exotic Carvings we take customer satisfaction very seriously.
PLEASE NOTE ALL OUR WOOD CARVINGS ARE PRODUCED FROM ETHICALLY SOURCED OR RECYCLED WOOD AND UPON REQUEST WE CAN PROVIDE A SCREENSHOT OF OUR CERTIFICATE FROM THE ASIAN GOVERNMENT FOR AUTHENTICITY.
These hand carved wooden sculptures are made from a solid Suar wood which is likened to Mahogany. Carved into many highly detailed and wonderful pieces ranging from Animals through to Budha’s and even Canes.
These highly detailed sculptures would enhance any home living room,bedroom,kitchen or office, they sit pride of place in any room in the home.
Suar is a fast-growing and easily replaceable wood and is very popular outside of the tropics because of it's crisscrossed, interlocking grain that keeps the wood from cracking when moved to drier climates.
The colour of the wood varies greatly between the center and outer edges of the tree, Resulting in interesting multi-coloured sculptures
Please note that the colours can go from a very light almost white colour to a dark brown colour.
Part of the appeal of this item is its hand-made nature. It is crafted in a natural product with hand tools in the traditional way. As such, please allow for minor imperfections in the wood. This adds to it’s authenticity, ensuring you have a genuine hand crafted item and NOT a generic, factory-manufactured product.
