Indonesia's most famous toy heritage is wayang — the shadow puppets of Java and Bali, a UNESCO-recognised art. Each wayang character is hand-cut from buffalo hide, elaborately painted, mounted on horn rods. Beyond wayang: bamboo whistles, painted wooden horses (kuda kepang) used in trance dance, palm-leaf plaited animals, and Yogyakarta's silver dolls' houses.
