'This mask is a very special one, which not many people have or know about,' says Awudu Saaed of this replica. 'Nigeria's Hausa people only give it to a woman after she has been of immense help to the person giving the mask. It is called Fulo meaning 'great friend' and it is given as a symbol of gratitude.' The sese wood mask is carved by hand and adorned with painted details and embossed aluminum plates.
