"Attractive but very small"

I love the colour, shape and expression of this little guy, but its much smaller than I expected. It might actually be the smallest mask in my collection now.

"Love this mask!"

This wooden mask looks better than in the catalog. The colors are vibrant and the detailing is one of a kind. It adds a rich look to the area where its hanging.

"This now hangs in my bedroom!"

After going on a Safari in Tanzania I came back painted my bedroom and redecorated in an African theme. this beautiful wooden piece adds a great deal to the overall motif . It is a very good quality. The colors have inspired me to make another bed quilt using indigo blue as my focus. I am very glad I found this site.
