brass ornaments

Traditional motifs in brass repoussé adorn the surface and legs of this accent table. Carved by hand, the versatile design folds for storage. Daniel Nyadedzor works in African sese wood to create a piece he names Me Dane Dane Me Ho – "I Change Myself" in the language of Ghana's Akan people.

Hand-embossed brass gleams on a colorful African mask by Ralph Kwasi Agudze. Red and green embellish the handsome face and the personage opens his mouth as if to pray. An original design, the mask is named Atorna Wo, which means "God will respond" in the Ewe language.

Artisan Kelvin Maguina of Peru designs this beautifully detailed wood jewellery box in warm golden tones with accents in brown, red and green. The jewellery box features intricate decoration on the exterior made of cedar wood and tooled leather. A pair of birds keeps watch in a garden of ornate flowers and leaves on the domed lid and variations of that motif are carried through to the sides and front. The jewellery box has three drawers and one top compartment, all lined in a velvety-soft red fabric.
