Culture:<\/strong> Nusa Tenggara, Eastern Indonesia Price include custom stand and shipping by DHL worldwide.<\/p>\n Delightfully sculptural and rich in symbolic character, this carved wooden honey spoon from Nusa Tenggara exemplifies the imaginative artistry of Eastern Indonesian woodcarving traditions. Fashioned from a single piece of hardwood, the handle is animated by a striking composition of two monkeys arranged in a vertical, almost totemic formation, transforming a functional utensil into a captivating work of ethnographic art.<\/p>\n The lower figure stands upright, supporting a second monkey perched above, creating a dynamic interplay of movement and balance. Their simplified yet expressive forms reflect the aesthetic vocabulary found throughout the Lesser Sunda Islands, where artisans often infused everyday objects with spiritual, ancestral, and natural-world symbolism. The monkeys, creatures admired for their intelligence, agility, and social bonds, may have served as protective or auspicious motifs within the cultural imagination of the region.<\/p>\n The spoon bowl itself is elegantly carved with a deep, smooth cavity, displaying both practical craftsmanship and harmonious proportions. A warm honey-brown patina highlights the contours of the figures and enhancing the piece’s tactile and visual appeal.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":13353,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[58],"product_tag":[1735,3204,3199,3206,3205,3200,3201,1112,3202,3203,2267,2264],"class_list":["post-13360","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-indonesia","product_tag-antique-spoon","product_tag-carved-monkey","product_tag-carved-spoon","product_tag-carved-wooden-monkey","product_tag-cute-monkey-carving","product_tag-decorative-spoon","product_tag-ethnic-spoon","product_tag-honey-spoon","product_tag-money-spoon","product_tag-spoon-with-monkey","product_tag-sumba-spoon","product_tag-timor-spoon","product_shipping_class-worldwide","desktop-align-center","tablet-align-left","mobile-align-left","first","instock","sold-individually","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/unikaborneo.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/13360","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/unikaborneo.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/unikaborneo.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/unikaborneo.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13360"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/unikaborneo.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/13360\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13365,"href":"https:\/\/unikaborneo.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/13360\/revisions\/13365"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/unikaborneo.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13360"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/unikaborneo.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=13360"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/unikaborneo.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=13360"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/unikaborneo.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=13360"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
