Deep in thought, a man sits, his head in his hand. The expressive world-weary abstract figure is designed by Ghana's Theophilus Anum. Artisans carve the sculpture by hand from sese wood and add a colorful cap of recycled glass beads. Baba is a Hausa word meaning "father".

"Earned a prominent place in my growing collection."
The workmanship is superb, the colors are subtle but perfect, the piece has a certain heft that is hard to explain but much appreciated. Im sure to look for his pieces when I next order a mask.
