Finding beauty in the daily routine, Cynthia Danquah creates this exquisite sculpture. She carves the image by hand to depict an African woman performing her daily tasks, a bowl in one hand while the other balances a basin atop her head. Is she carrying goods to sell at the market, or perhaps her load of laundry? Is she taking food home to her children? You choose.

"Striking, Ethic Artistry"
Ohemaa, wood pendant necklace is large, but well proportioned to hang in a way that is flattering when worn. Very eye-catching, unique artistic necklace. Coordinates with Paglayiri earrings made by IIa Suleyman. Happy with purchase.
