Wonderful Piece!”

This Bediako mask is a great piece! The workmanship is excellent. I loved it as soon as I opened the package and love it even more hanging on my wall. Thank you, Ransford Bediako! I will think of you often when I see your piece in my home.

Beautiful walking stick; however, it needs to be an inch or two taller.
