“Distinctive and vibrant”

This was the first piece of art I ever bought - I wanted something that captured my love for West African music. The colours are so intense without being jarring. My mum has a piece by the same artist and loves it too.

“Beautiful Batik”

The art is beautiful and will be a great addition to our home. The packaging did protect the batik, but the matting is creased on one entire short end.
