Add a taste of Africa to your home decor with this wonderful statuette. Inspired by the Wechiau Hippo Sanctuary of northern Ghana, Gelson Avorwlanu crafts this attractive, realistic hippopotamus. The artisan hand-carves the wild beast from rich mahogany wood, and finishes it with polish that gives the hippo a lovely glow. Because each one is an individual work of art, there may be slight variations.
