Product Description

NOVICA, in association with National Geographic, searches the world to work directly with the finest artisan designers. Two figures embrace to demonstrate the concept of sono, or unity. Frank Obiri-Ntow turns to the Navorongo people of northern Ghana for this handsome design. He carves the occent table by hand and applies a dark finish with mansion polish. Artisan Info: "Frank Obiri-Ntow is my name and I was born on December 20, 1956 at Asamankese in Ghana. After completing my schooling in 1973, I was admitted to a technical commercial college and graduated in 1978. "From 1983 to 1986, Mr. Osei in Obourkrom trained me as a woodcarver; I then attended an export school, and eventually joined a national handicraft association. I am married with two children and I am training two people at my workshop. My work has been shown in Berlin every year since 2000 and in the U.S. in 2003."
