The Story Behind the Product
Nana was born to a family of 9 children in the town of Kumasi in Ghana, West Africa. His parents divorced when he was only 8 years old and Nana became so rebellious that his mother sent him to live with his father in Tamale (in the Northern region of Ghana) when Nana was 12 years old. It was there that he developed an interest in art. He dropped out of school when he was 14 and started training with a master carver in Tamale. In 2000 Nana began selling his products through Worldstock. Nana is now married with 3 children and lives in Accra, Ghana. He is now a master carver with his own shop and 10 employees. Nana?s life has been so improved since he began working with Worldstock that he named his son after his contact at Overtsock.com.

Not like picture
The statue was not polished like the one in the picture. It was not finished smooth in a number of places. I spent and hour finishing and polishing and will display the statue in the family room.
- Did the color match the color displayed onsite? The one I got had an uneven, splotchy finish
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. I had expected much more care in the carving for the price.
- How accurate was the sizing? Sizing was correct.

Not bad...
It's a nice piece, but it did not look like it did in the picture. The wood was two different tones. It was ok, but I would have preferred the solid piece that they show above.

Fantastic!
I bought this as a gift for my mother. I had the item shipped to their address and it was on time and delivered in perfect condition! What was best about this purchase was that I called in the 1-800 number and spoke with a representative that was very enthusiastic and wonderful to speak with. It was even my birthday and she waived the $14.99 expidited shipping charge! Fantastic work Overstock! You will always have my business! -Ryan

mothers day gift
It is hard to go wrong with worldstock. The craftsmanship was excellent as always and the statue was definately unique. It wasnt exactly like the picture but it think it was better for it.

Very nice
I'm not sure what the other reviews are saying about the statue not looking like the picture; my copy is a true representation. Nicely made and a great piece. I think the lines are great from any angle, and it really does elicit emotion with the "thinker" motif. Sometimes pensive, sometimes thoughtful or even depressed. It's truly an engaging piece of art.
