Lys Bride and Groom Wood Sculpture Bloomsbury Market

The artisan carves the images of a handsome couple from the Hausa tribe, which hails from northern Ghana. Executed with fine detail, these sese wood statues celebrate Hausa wedding traditions, in which the bride arrives with a veil covering her face for the husband to unveil. The beat of the drums marks the celebratory mood as bride and groom begin a festive dance. Bloomsbury Market
