WAYANG GOLEK
on IndoArtNet

Link to our Wayang Kulit Shadow Puppets.

Wayang Golek is a traditional Indonesian puppet play carried out with rod puppets as those shown below. It is especially popular in Sunda (Western Java) and Central Java. The puppet bodies are carved from Acacia wood with intricate and fine details, hand-painted and dressed in Batik clothes, which are traditionally sown from recycled material and exchanged every few years.

Indonesian Arts Network gets antique Wayang Golek puppets directly from real Dalangs (puppeteers), who used them in actual Wayang performances for 20 - 40 years. We select puppets in good overall conditions, but signs of age and use are of course visible - and add to the authenticity.

We are frequently receiving shipment of sometimes several hundred antique Wayang Golek Rod Puppets. Below you can see our current stock, or click here to see the newest additions.

We have been able to keep the prices constant at US$30 to 120 per puppet for many years. Among the few places selling such antique puppets, we have the lowest prices and the widest variety. Furthermore, we offer discounts for large and bulk orders: 10% off for orders of 10 or more, 20% off above 50 puppets. They sell quickly, so order soon!
