Handmade in Ghana by master craftsmen using primitive tools these exquisite girafes represent grace and intelligence.
Kwasi Asante is probably one of the most skilled carvers in Kumasi, Ghana. His family has been in the carving business for a very long time. He has a large and experienced staff of other carvers and sub-contract carvers which provides him the capacity to supply large quantities of carvings. His carving operation uses fallen logs and government approved lumber. He has provided much need income to hundreds of carvers over the years. he has also provided educational opportunities to his children and his extended family and other remote villages as well.

Very Unique
A beautiful piece of craftmanship...I've never seen anything quite like it. If you like to collect African masks like we do, this will fit right in with the collection. I look at it, and still can't quite figure out how it was made from one piece of wood....amazing. A real conversation piece. My wife and I simply love it.

really cool
this is a really interesting art piece more than a table. it's a little short to be a table so we are going to put it on the fireplace. it's made very well and is like nothing else i have ever seen. my husband loved it, as it was a christmas gift.

Five headed giraffe
The workmanship on the first giraffe I received was defective, as one of the giraffes was missing half its left ear. I returned the merchandise and received a second giraffe. It had all its ears; however, part of the foot was missing. Frustrated, I did not return this item because it is a beautiful and unusual piece of artwork.

received product with huge chunk missing
Nice workmanship however product arrived hugely chipped at the foot. Nicely and properly packaged with lots of insulation. Definately product was manhandled in US distribution where it chipped then they decided to ship it to me flawed anyway instead of finding a replacement that was intact. Lovely and intricate work made by the Ghanaean artisans though!

Brilliant piece
This was the hit of a birthday party I brought it to recently. I had never had it out of the box and the birthday girl opened it and was simply delighted. The workmanship is beautiful, the design is genius and everyone there wanted one too! I am ordering another for myself! It is a great gift for giraffe lovers!

I was so surprised!
My daughter loves Giraffes and I have been searching everywhere for something special. I happened upon this item while searching for something else. I read the review on it and it's history and decided to take a chance with ordering it for her for Christmas. It got here in three days and when I took it out of the box to inspect it, I was amazed as I imagined it smaller than it truly is and the details of the carving just blew me away!! How talented these people are and what a unique gift for someone. I know she will love it and she's very picky. If you're looking for a great conversation piece for a great price, then this is it. I am so happy I took the chance. I will definitely be back to WorldStock to shop for many more occasions! Thank you Overstock.com!

Interesting...
This piece was meant to be a table base for a round glass tabletop, but it ended up being too small. So I'm using it as a holder for one of my plants. Very cute and versitile!
