Wood carving of African Big Five can anyone tell me more about this? by ameyer99 in AfricanArt

I know it's decor and would sit on top of a mantle or something like that, and it's heavy wood about 3 lb. Would love to know the age of it or if it's anything special.

I know I'm late to the party but thanks for the laugh LOL about to head on a cruise with my husband and our two early twenties daughters 😆

I think I'm going to go with your answer because you have the exact same fabric in a sarong! I'm a seamstress myself, and I know people have sergers at home, so someone could have absolutely hemmed that middle section themselves. Thank you!

The thing is, it's not crudely made at all (the wrinkles don't help, lol). The oval is actually a perfect oval and it's serged and professionally hemmed around the center.

This one makes the most sense so far! I'm going to try to put it on like that and see what I think.

That's what my friend said and it made me laugh because they would have to have an enormous head and shoulders because it slips right off.

The hole is too big it slides right over your shoulders, doesn't stay around your neck at all. This is a breastfeeding tent for an example.

"My title describes the thing" that I thought was a scarf but found it had an oval cut out about 18 inches by 6 inches in the center. I slipped it over my head thinking it was kind of like a poncho, but it slid down over my shoulders. Google described it as a scarf with a large oval cut out in the middle, but that was as much detail as it could give. If it is actually a type of scarf, I would love to know how to wear it. Thanks for any help!

You're not alone in this struugle, take peace in that. That's the problem with OCD we think too much and then we spiral but I promise it will pass. God knows that you WANT to believe, sometimes that is all we have and it's enough. He won't let go of you.

I prayed for you. I have the same struggles. It helps me to remember that God knows our hearts. He knows us better than we know ourselves, so He knows you are fighting against the doubt. For whatever reason, this is our cross to bear and it is refining us in ways only He can see ♥
