Historical Significance: 

  • Preservation of Traditional Sri Lankan Craftsmanship
  • Sri Lanka has a long history of wood carving, with ancient temples and palaces adorned with detailed wooden sculptures and decorative panels. Oak Ray continues this tradition by keeping the art form alive.
  • Influence from Ancient Kingdoms
  • Wood carving was an essential part of Sri Lankan architecture during the Anuradhapura (377 BCE–1017 CE) and Polonnaruwa (1056–1236 CE) periods. The intricate wooden pillars, doors, and furniture in ancient temples and palaces demonstrate the high level of craftsmanship that Oak Ray preserves.
  • Connection to Buddhism and Hinduism
  • Many traditional Sri Lankan wood carvings depict Buddhist and Hindu religious themes, including statues of the Buddha, deities, and sacred animals. Oak Ray follows this artistic heritage in its religious carvings.
  • Economic and Cultural Value
  • Wood carving has been an essential industry for Sri Lanka’s economy, particularly in tourist-driven markets. Oak Ray, as a leading brand, has helped promote Sri Lankan wood carving on an international level.
  • Sustainability and Modern Adaptation
  • While traditional wood carving often used valuable timber like ebony and teak, modern artisans, including Oak Ray, focus on sustainable wood sources to continue the craft without harming the environment
