"Charming Wood Sculpture"
This is a very interesting wood sculpture from West Africa. Her dress is made from local fabric which is colorful and her matching earrings and necklace complete the outfit I love Novica's collection of wood statues as they are always authentic and very appealing. Rochelle New Jersey

"Visions, Culture, History"
Beautiful piece of functional art. It is displayed in my entry hall, with African artifacts I have collected over the years, and never fails to elicit comments from people entering my home. I love that it doesnt really look too new, so it fits in with the theme of older items. Too, the size is perfect.

"Beautiful statues"
I was so excited when my package finally came in. More then what I expected. They are light weight yet sturdy. These statues are set up in my room. Thank you Novica! I will be shopping for more items in the near future:)
