"This mask is a very special one, which not many people have or know about," says Awudu Saaed of this replica. "Nigeria's Hausa people only give it to a man after he has been of immense help to the person giving the mask. It is called Fulo meaning 'great friend' and it is given as a symbol of gratitude." The sese wood mask is carved by hand and adorned with painted details and embossed aluminum plates.

"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. Its beautiful. I could NOT stop thinking about it and finally caved, and Im 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 cant wait to collect more of Awudu Saaeds work.
