View Details About The Artist About Siiren Delivery Fairtrade Bamboo Root Baby Duck Statue Product: Hand carved Bamboo Duck ornament Name: Bamboo Root Baby Duck These cute Bamboo Baby Duck statues have been personally hand carved for Siiren. The Duck carvings are so wonderfully detailed, especially considering they have been carved using only basic hand tools, and not using conventional power tools. The huge selection of wooden birds statues we showcase on our site are created for Siiren by a somewhat large team of 12 wood carvers and artists based in Bali, Indonesia. The reason we have such a large team making these statues is because they are made by using a diverse selection of materials. Be it Bamboo root, Suar wood or Parasite wood. The head artist whom is responsible for overseeing the other artists and quality control is Dekca . To read more information about Dekca and how Siiren has helped his business grown please These Ducks have been created using fair trade sourced Bamboo Root. As Bamboo is one of the fastest growing plants in the world, it is excellent as a sustainable resource. Used for decades as a food source, building material and all round raw materials, in this case the talented Dekca has used it to create this wonderful carving.

I make Bird crafts and carvings from a diverse range of woods such as Bamboo root, Suar wood or parasite wood. I have worked for Siiren for the past six years. I lead a team of 12 workers making these beautiful pieces for Siiren. Working with Siiren has been a great experience as it’s a genuine fair trade company. This has been a life changing opportunity for my team and I as we are paid our dues and our rights as workers are fully reserved. Financial security that comes with working for Siiren has attracted a large number of independent workers to join my team. Together we are doing our level best to create unique and wonderful pieces that touch lives wherever they go. Previously I used to work alone and was not very aware of market trends but Siiren has exposed me to bigger markets, now I am at a position to understand what the latest market trends I can guide my workers to create quality products that customers will love. All the products that I create are handcrafted to perfection. I look forward to continue my work with Siiren and expand my team to decorate the world with the little pieces of art that we create.
