Serenely beautiful, this mask by Nana Frimpong depicts an Ashanti woman warrior. "When Yaa Asantewaa led the Ashanti's final battle, she used this mask to protect herself. The horns signify her seriousness during the war," the master carver says. He works in African sese wood to create this extraordinary image.

"Perfect size for a small space"
This is just the right size to fit neatly in so many places. I reflect on the meaning each day as I leave the door of my bedroom where it reminds me to look honestly at the past and remember its lessons in order to build a better future.
