Carved by hand, this sleek sculpture depicts two people holding an egg between them. Abdul Aziz Mohamadu works in sese wood, polishing the abstracted image to a sheen. He names it Tumi Tese Kosua (Ashanti Power) to illustrate an adage — "Power is as fragile as an egg. When it is held tightly, it breaks; if held loosely, it falls and breaks. But when held with care, it lasts forever."

This mask has been hanging on the wall in our living room for the past couple of years. It has a great finish and gives a warm, welcoming and interesting feel to the room. Very happy with it.

"Another Winner!"
Very striking color combination. The detail that appears looks similar to netting. This mask blends well with the Stunning-Amahle wood-mask I previously purchased.

"Dramatic Beauty!"
This is the second mask by this artist that I have purchased. This one is more petite and fits well into the artistic scheme on my Livingroom wall.
