Our cow skulls carving is hand-chiseled individually to produce distinctive designs and patterns in each piece. We use traditional hand knives and carving tools to avoid monotonous machine-made designs. Either you have a subtle-colored wall or a vibrant one, plain or textured; our hand-carved unique skull mounts will liven up any wall or corner.
Preserved Skull and Horns
Balinese culture does not believe in harming animals or disrespecting them, and that’s also what we follow at Skull Savvy. We don’t injure or hurt any animal in any way to carry out our carving. All the cows whose skulls we use for this art are most likely to have lived a full life and died of natural means or old age. The skulls and horns in our artifacts are all thoroughly cleaned and preserved by ethical means.
Keeping the tradition alive
The indigenous people of Balinese culture always interpreted skulls as a sign of new beginnings, unlike most of the cultures, which connects the skull with death or bad luck. They have always treated the animals with respect and affection, and they do not believe in wasting any part of it. For instance, they used to utilize the animal’s skin to get shelter from it, meat for food, and bones for tools.
They used to treat the skull of the animal as a holy and pure object place at a high spot from where it can be seen and appreciated. As time passed, they started to pay tribute to the animal by using its skull as a canvas to express their art and affection. Where other animals’ skulls were also carved, the cow skull always held an extraordinary place in the Balinese culture.
The Balinese culture has great love towards cows, and they relate it with the mother earth, because of its giving and sacrificing nature. As a result, a cow skull is the signature style of Bali skull carving. Even after years, carved cow skulls are still quite popular and keep the Bali tradition alive and thriving.
