the credit card statement says "KARYA MAS GALLERY". Our driver took us straight there and there were lots of other drivers taking people to the same place. It was after stopping at the Batik factory, before we got into the windy tropical looking part of Ubud (town itself).
The frog box is amazing - it has a slot at the back that has to be lifted out, the the top has to slide off to reveal the box lid that once taken off reveals a deep hole in the middle of the body - almost a puzzle to take apart and put back together again.
I hope you can find it. I am hoping to go back there when we return to buy more as the prices were great and customs were really happy with the quality of the wood.
