They stand about .7 of a metre tall and they cost Rp110,000 for both. I declared them and after checking them thoroughly the customs officer said they were ok to bring in. Just have a close look at them before buying to check for any suspicious holes that could be borer.

I didn't ever notice the name of the shop, but it's in Benesari Lane not too far down from Jl Melasti on the right hand side. I think it's the first wood shop you come to. You can buy them just about everywhere, although I'm sure Ketut would be a very happy girl if you were to buy them from her.

Friends of mine managed to bring back some very tall ones as hand luggage, so anything is possible.
