"My friends describe me as a simple guy who is a hard worker and loves his family.
"I became interested in carving when a friend introduced me to some artisans who worked in carving. I saw the way they worked and it was so amazing that I started to learn. It was my friend Abdul Rasit who taught me, and two other carvers – Pak Dewa and Bli Kadek – were always there to answer my questions.
"My materials are plentiful and inexpensive, when compared to silver or gold. I work in bone and wood. My culture inspires me, and the natural world around me – flowers, leaves and animals. To improve my technique, I turn to books, the Internet and visiting other bone carvers.
"When I am challenged by a difficult design, I work until I can do it nicely. When someone likes it, the result is a very happy moment.
"In 2010 when my wife was pregnant with our second son, I didn't have enough money to pay the rent. We had no choice. We had to move to my father-in-law's house, where we stayed for five months.
"In the future, I hope can buy a new house for my family. I dream of giving my children the best possible education and helping my family, especially our parents."

Anne I ordered this to give to a friend but, when it arrived, I fell in love with it and decided to keep it and buy something else for my friend! I’ve worn it many times and had so many compliments on it - including from the friend who didn’t receive it!!!
