This is now a cherished heirloom
An exquisitely carved, beautiful African wood Nativity Set for my Pastor who loves Christmas. Each piece had a soft feel to it as if handled like glass. The detailed carvings gave each piece identity and character as if coming to life. I am so happy with this creation and my congratulations to Thomas Kumah Nedjoh, the artist, putting his whole heart and soul into each piece.
Third artwork by members of the Subrata family
I purchased my first Subrata Barong mask 25 years ago, and it guards the door of the family house since that time. When I established my own consulting business and needed a "work apartment" I went to Novica to see if I could find another piece by the Subrata Paterfamilias, Nyoman Subrata, who carved our old Barong mask and also a beautiful mer-person sculpture that I have at work. I was sad to see that he had left us, but delighted to see that another family member carries on his legacy. Very happy with this new Barong, who watchfully guards the door to my work residence.
