"Became My Family Tradition"
Knowing that prayer is a very important part of my life, it was an easy decision to purchase this wall sculpture for each of my grandsons. God has blessed me with four grandsons and Im forever thankful.

"Oba Wooden Sculpture Coloring/Quality Off"
This sculpture of the Benin Oba is rare, but the item I received did not have the richness of the picture. Also the sculptures coloring on the neck had bed a-lot when the item arrived. This was going to be a culmination moment of my current collection. .
