"The best gift received"
I was given this set of mask for a Christmas gift from my sister Heather. I screamed with so much excitement. Although they arrived after Christmas, I look forward to decorating my tree next year with them. The unique craftsmanship is mind boggling. Impressively beautiful and colorful. The sizing of each mask is the perfect size, being about the size of a large Christmas ball. I have placed for more to be added to the wishlist, wanting to have last 5 more sets. When I informed my dear friend about the gift, Kathy immediately was also interested in wanting a set or two. I'm looking forward to seeing what's next from this magnificent craftsman.

"Hanging on Our Wall"
We have numerous home decorations we bought in several African countries while visiting them. The masks are just as authentic and go well beside other African objects. Terrific.

"Amazing"
I have purchased five different groups of mask decorations from different African artists and this is undoubtedly my favorite group. They are so handsome and well done. I love the use of metal on two of them and they are all painted beautifully. Many Thanks to Victor and Novica! I definitely recommend Victors work - you wont be disappointed.

"uNUSUAL WEST AFRICAN WOOD SCULPTURE"
I am so very pleased with this purchase of Mondays Girl. Excellent size, and I love, the beading in her headress, around the waist and her necklace. Her outfit is kente cloth. Very colorful and so pleasing to the eye. I am so happy to add her to my collection of wood sculptures that Novice offers from West Africa. Rochelle June 19, 2018
