"Small Yet Impactful!"
This mask is small in size; however, it is both dramatic and impactful to any decor. The color contrast between tyhe beige and black accentuates the physical features of the face. It is a beautiful piece!

"Perfect symbol"
For years my son and I used a single musical note as a symbol between the two of us. Finding this was such a treat. It was a perfect gift for him and designed in such a way that it was masculine enough.

Ha sido una suerte dar con una máscara idéntica a la tela de los cojines del sofá. El complemento perfecto. Buena calidad, perfectamente realizada. Estaré atenta a futuras creaciones del autor. Poco a poco, a aumentar la colección de artesanía africana. Gracias.
