A magnificent wooden Owo mask evokes the glory of West African culture, handcrafted by master artisan Daniel Nyadedzor. "Owo," pronounced "owwor" in the local dialect, means snake.

Beautifully crafted

I now own 8 of these lovely masks, handcrafted by a very talented artisan in Indonesia. Eka has an expert creative eye, as though the wood itself speaks to her about what it would like to become. These are the perfect accent to the spa like room that I'd envisioned!
