"Beautiful addition to collection"
This is so beautiful and just the right size. It fills out our collection nicely and with depth and texture. I was looking for something smaller to balance out the larger pieces and this was perfect. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the metal overlay.

"Another beauty for my collection"
I bought this mask to give as a present but it is so beautiful, I will keep it. I usually buy mask when I travel and I have a large collection, this is one of the best made and most detailed in my collection. I will definitely buy from Awudu Saaed again. Price was amazingly reasonable and it arrived exactly on the due date.

"Very nice mask"
We have a large selection of masks and love the texture of this one. It is made of wood with detailed aluminum covering the base. It is well made and will be a great addition to our other masks. It is called Mbara Hunter which truly fits the mask.

"Perfect for placement on window shelf where the sun highlights its features."
This is a beautifully carved and painted fish. Very nice detail and stands on its own on a shelf where the sun shines that brings out its nicely detail features.
