This parasite wood carving is lovingly hand carved by the wonderful artisans we work with in Indonesia. The main part of the carving is carved from wood from the Chinaberry tree. The Chinaberry tree, in particular, can play host to a parasitic plant, a little like mistletoe, that attaches itself to the bark of the tree, and takes nourishment from the tree sap. Whilst the parasitic plant is attached, the Chinaberry tree growth is distorted around the point of attachment, producing so-called “wood roses”. The presence of the parasitic plant can damage, and even kill the host tree. The parasitic plants are removed, often saving the tree, and the resulting “wood roses” are removed and carved into a wide range of different forms, buy the skilled artisans of Bali. As each piece of parasite wood is natural each item will differ slightly in shape and size but to us the amazing part of this is you are guaranteed a truly unique one-off piece!
