Bible stories often inspire Victor Dushie's original designs. Carved by hand from sese wood, a person with a round face shout triumphantly. Parallel lines define the forehead while embossed aluminum adorns the cheeks. The Ghanaian artisan names this West African mask Edem, which means "God has rescued me" in the Ewe language.

"Simple, but fabulous"
I needed something smaller to fill a certain space on my wall (with a collection of 6 other round masks). This one fit in perfectly & I loved the lighter wood, with metal accents. Super quality, as all masks from Novica are!

"WOWWWWW"
So much detail & texture - its amazing! Not your average round mask; multi-colored wood, metal; extra piece at the top. I have had compliments from many friends & will probably buy another, as a gift for someone.

"Priceless"
This is the mask that started my collection. Her beauty and what she represents were the focal point of allure. Wish it was possible to attach a picture to this review so you could see for yourself.
