"In Honor of Mama Nyakatiga"
In Kenya Giraffe is called Tiga. I was adopted by a Woman from the Katiga Clan of the Luos, they are the Far Seers. This wood giraffe is great, beautifully carved with a good sized place in side for some special jewelry. Tiga stands up proudly to see far.

"Very beautiful, original sculpture"
My wife and I are very happy with our new turtle pair. We bought this as a Christmas Gift for my Mother so we are not going to be keeping it however I plan to buy another one because I really like it. This is really an awesome, original piece and I especially like the large size of it. Nice quality and the shipping was fast and it was packed well. Nice piece Sarwaedi, thank you.
