Incredible Artwork

Not sure how I stumbled upon this mask in the first place but from the moment I saw it, something about it haunted me. It's beautiful. I could NOT stop thinking about it and finally caved, and I'm so glad I did. The colors, the beadwork, and the craftsmanship are all incredible. This is my favorite piece of art we own, by far. I can't wait to collect more of Awudu Saaed's work.

Wow - Just WOW!

What incredible detail! This is so beautiful and the beadwork is PERFECT. There's not a crooked bead anywhere - the quality and artisanship are phenomenal! I can't find a signature anywhere but he definitely should - it is my first of many to purchase! I have really enjoyed learning about the Huijol people and customs!
