A regal countenance radiates sensations of kindness and beauty. Carved by hand, this African mask is embellished with sheets of embossed aluminum, adding elegant textures. Masks such as this were once used as a gesture of goodwill among neighbors during celebrations held by Ewe chieftains in Ghana's Volta region, Paul Ntim explains. The Ghanaian artisan names his design Nonyo — goodwill in the Ewe language.
