A bird perches atop this elongated mask by Godfred France and leans forward to caress the forehead with its beak. Adorned with white clay and polished brass, this original African sese wood mask is the artisan's own design.

Product Features:
Story Behind the Art:
As a child, Godfred France used to make boats with worn-out metal utensils, which he'd float in water. 'Due to financial constraints, my parents could not further my education and so I had to drop out of school and join my uncle, who was a wood carver. Thanks to the woodcarving, I've been able to educate my four children and I know that with constant sales, I'll be able to give them a brighter future than I had. This motivates me to wake up each day to carve.'

    Simply love the workmanship and it's history. I feel the kinship and a closeness to my history and ancestors of long ago long before we were able to relish in a history that was taken away.

    The mask is very nice, but it does not look like the image provided. The colors are not vibrant. It looks like various shades of brown.
