Ghana's famed gye nyame symbol centers this handsome table, its rotating form meaning "I fear none except God." Known as an adinkra symbol, this image is revered throughout the country. Winfred Korley carves two lovers as the base, their embrace leading to a long, tender kiss.

"Visions, Culture, History"
Beautiful piece of functional art. It is displayed in my entry hall, with African artifacts I have collected over the years, and never fails to elicit comments from people entering my home. I love that it doesnt really look too new, so it fits in with the theme of older items. Too, the size is perfect.

"Beautiful statues"
I was so excited when my package finally came in. More then what I expected. They are light weight yet sturdy. These statues are set up in my room. Thank you Novica! I will be shopping for more items in the near future:)

"Nice space saver"
The table is beautiful and in the spirit of the Adrinka. I love it. However, know this: 1) the table is very light, it easily slips on hard floors and could tip in the process 2) it is not carved out of a block as more ancient artifacts, but of three distinct pieces assembled by screws 3) it is not totally even, so if you place it on a hard floor, you ll have to rig it so it does not wobble
