This wonderful folk art carved wooden snake is an early piece (I believe-it’s signed but not dated) by well-known Santa Fe artist Jim “Jimbo” Davila, who was especially known for his fantastic snakes in the 1980s &’90s. Every one of them is unique-this one is a bit more subdued & natural in color than a lot of his later snakes but it’s a terrific piece. It measures about 23″ long x about 10″ wide. In very good vintage condition overall, although I believe two of the front fangs may be broken off. Please take a close look at the photos to ascertain condition. I love this snake’s almost gleeful expression-I think it’s got a twinkle in its eyes! I hope you’ll love this somewhat rare piece as much as we have. I don’t want to create a hassle for anyone but I do want to make sure you get your package safely. Again, thanks so much for understanding.

This exquisite sculpture depicts Vishnu riding Garuda, fighting a Naga snake. Crafted from hardwood in Bali, Indonesia, this original piece is a stunning example of traditional art. The intricate carving details the mythological story of Vishnu and his struggle against the evil Naga snake. Measuring at 13.5″ tall, 5″ wide, 4 deep, this medium-sized sculpture is a perfect addition to any art collection. The sculpture is handmade using intricate wood carving skills. The artist is unknown, adding to the mystery and allure of this piece. The artwork is very good vintage condition. I only found 1 small flaw; a chip on the bottom jaw of a Garuda. I show this in a close up photo. This sculpture is a must-have for any art enthusiast who appreciates the history, beauty and richness of Indonesian culture.
