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.

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.
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.

I bought it for a friend for his birthday and he really liked it. However, it did not look at all like the picture. I thought it would look more like the original "Thinker Version," only a wood carved edition. However, it looks more like the side angel of "The Thinker." I do beleive that it is good workmanship. I do agree with another review that it doesn't look anything like the picture and in that respect, I was disappointed.

I'm not really crazy about the way the statue looks, even though it looks almost like the one that was pictured. It has grown on me a little bit, but I may end up giving it away because it's shape is just too square. I was hoping that it would look more like the 12-inch one, so I may cross my fingers and buy one of those to replace the 10-inch. The workmanship and value are excellent.
Not at all what I expected. Shippment did not take too long..tracking number given was not recognized on FED-Ex website?? Live chat with associate who was very polite and advised to expect it to take a long I was very anxious in awaiting my package and upon first initial glance was not impressed. I think I expected something more. Size perfect, color nice--Overal I think its growing on me. It does what it should-catch your eye and adds character to my home. Value for price paid (I guess)
