Woman Warrior Handmade Ashanti Wood Mask

Serenely beautiful, this mask by Nana Frimpong depicts an Ashanti woman warrior. 'When Yaa Asantewaa led the Ashanti's final battle, she used this mask to protect herself. The horns signify her seriousness during the war,' the master carver says. He works in African sese wood to create this extraordinary image.
