Acquire one of the most extraordinary ethnographic art pieces available anywhere — this rare Bronze Sumatran Naga Morsarang from the Batak people of North Sumatra, Indonesia, depicting the legendary mythological sea serpent with eight riders in breathtaking sculptural detail.

The Naga Morsarang occupies a central place in Batak cosmology — a powerful supernatural serpent of the waters, commanding cosmic forces that exist between the human and spirit worlds. In Batak tradition, the Naga is not merely a creature of mythology — it is a living cosmic principle, a bridge between realms, a force that must be honoured, understood, and respected. The eight riders upon its back represent the human relationship with this primordial power — brave souls who have mastered, or dared to ride, the forces or dared to ride, the forces of the unseen world.

At 32 inches tall and 29 inches wide, this is a genuinely commanding sculptural presence — one of the largest and most complex ethnographic bronze pieces in our collection. Every rider, every scale, every coil of the serpent's magnificent form has been rendered with the characteristic richness of Sumatran bronze casting tradition. At 14.510 kg, this is a weighty, substantial acquisition of genuine museum quality.

Pieces of this cultural specificity, artistic complexity, and ethnographic significance are extraordinarily rare outside of Indonesia and specialist collector markets. This is a once-encountered piece for the serious collector.

Cultural Significance

The Batak people of North Sumatra maintain one of Southeast Asia's most distinctive and ancient cultural traditions — their art, architecture, textiles, and ritual objects carrying a visual language entirely their own. The Naga Morsarang is among their most sacred mythological beings, associated with water, cosmic power, ancestral protection, and the forces that govern fortune and fate. Acquiring this piece is acquiring a fragment of one of humanity's oldest living cultural traditions.

Ideal For

Serious ethnographic and world art collections, luxury statement interiors and art galleries, boutique hotels and cultural heritage properties, museum-quality home collections, cultural institutions and educational spaces, discerning collectors of Southeast Asian and Indonesian art.

Frequently Asked Questions

Title: Frequently Asked Questions


ABOUT OUR PRODUCTS

Q: Are BudhShiv idols made of pure brass/copper/bronze/wood?
Yes. Every idol at BudhShiv is crafted from pure brass (Pital)/copper/ bronze or wood as mentioned in products — no mixing of inferior metals or alloys. Our Raw Materials are sourced from trusted suppliers and each piece is quality-checked before dispatch. 

Q: Are the idols handcrafted or machine-made?
100% handcrafted. Each BudhShiv idol is made by skilled traditional Indian artisans using techniques passed down through generations. No machine moulding is used.

Q: Why does brass turn darker over time?
