I got this piece as a gift for my principal who enjoys African art. I opened the box to make sure it arrived in good condition, which it did. The piece was beautifully carved but very poorly wrapped and shipped. The packaging was a mess! I had to find another box big enough and purchase packing materials to wrap it in before gift wrapping it. The statue also has a strong odor of wood which isn't that bad but can be overpowering. The one thing I would have added was the story behind the meaning of the statue and the information about the artist. I typed up a sheet to go with the statue because I thought that the information about it was part of the appeal. I would recommend this to anyone who likes African artwork.
