I have a friend who, when she still lived in the same town, took care of me having art in my house. She gave me this African statue. I feel bad about the missing bit here but can't remember if it came like this or if it broke when someone in the house (whose name I won't mention) dropped it. The piece you see here is about 2 inches long.
HMM!
You may be well informed that this statue is surprisingly small, but when you see it at the first time, the first impression is: Yes, extremely beautiful and surprisingly small!
