I would definitely buy another item from the same artist. I?d love to see more of his art. The mask is gorgeous. It?s in my bedroom where I can see it every morning. Thank you, Abdul.

African Mask review

It is beautiful piece of art work. It will fit right in with my collection of African art. Is there a way I can contact the artist? I'd like to send him pictures of my collection. It might give him some ideas for future carvings.
