This exquisite hand-carved teakwood mural panel from Myanmar, crafted in the early 21th century, showcases a stunning depiction of a Burmese nat, or apsara. The panel, a substantial 3 inches thick, depicts the apsara dressed elegantly in traditional Burmese attire, standing gracefully on a lotus, symbolizing purity. Above her, peacocks, representing grace, add a touch of elegance to the scene. The mural is beautifully framed with a lotus petal motif, further enhancing its cultural significance and aesthetic appeal. The piece is hand-carved from teak, one of the worlds few “soft” hardwoods. The relative softness of teak, combined with its tight grain and resistance to moisture make it ideal for carving. This unique piece is a testament to the intricate craftsmanship and rich artistic heritage of Myanmar.
