Traditional Balinese art often takes inspiration from the natural elements surrounding the place, creating a series of charming accessories with a tropical aura. Following this trend, artisan Citra hand-carves a gorgeous albesia wood wall accent honoring the stunning regional coasts, all in a polished finish that enhances the wood's natural color.

In this hand made arpillera wall hanging, artisan Leonor Quispe of Peru creates a vivid scene inspired by the Paracas National Reserve, located south of Lima on the Peruvian coast. The artist showcases the local fauna enjoying the seaside as the sun sinks over the horizon. The top of the arpillera has an opening for inserting a rod for easy hanging.
