Hand-carved of sese wood, this decorative comb brings the beauty of African culture to any wall. Emmanuel Opoku Asante makes the comb, rubbing it with clay for a rustic finish. The handle of the comb is carved to resemble the Adinkra symbol Funtumfumfu, depicting "Siamese crocodiles" and representing democracy and unity.

"Never Feel Alone"
Democracy and unity, a beautiful reminder of this sculpture to meditate upon when feeling alone and hopeless -- We are never alone and hope is very much alive, showing itself at the most tiniest sliver of love, accompanied by strength and perseverance. Love this piece!
