Wood Accent Table from West Africa, "God is Supreme"
Ghana's famed gye nyame symbol emerges in cedar wood, its form meaning "I fear none except God." Known as an adinkra symbol, this image is revered throughout the country. George Obeng carves the traditional motif as the base of a handsome, circular accent table, taking care to reinforce the sculpture where it meets the tabletop and base.

"Nice Elephant bookends"
Not quite detailed enough for the price or another star. One trunk was broken and I repaired it.
