What Santeros say about us
- Verified eBay buyer
“I received this superb Dan mask on time and well packaged (along with another one I bought) and I'm extremely happy with the purchase and the seller and with eBay because Santeriaguide do not ship to the UK. So the eBay element was essential. The detail and patina on these masks is impressive and to my mind they're among the very best looking Dan masks on the internet. Also it's not the first time I've bought from this seller through eBay. I can highly recommend the service.”

“A great store to purchase from. They are very easy to deal with and highly professional. I bought an eleke with a crocodile skull pendant from them, and when it arrived in the mail, the pendant was damaged. I contacted them, and they made the exchange process very easy and sent me another necklace, after I mailed the broken one back. I have purchased from them before in the past. And every transaction is always wonderful.”

Disclaimer
This Obatala Oshagrina gala is crafted with metal string.
Every piece is strung by hand, so exact lengths vary slightly between items.
Wrap a soft tape measure — or a strip of paper — snugly around your wrist, or where you want the necklace to sit, then measure it against a ruler. Add about half an inch if you prefer a looser fit.
Between sizes, or ordering for an iyawó or godchild? Message us before you order and we'll confirm the finished length of the exact piece you're looking at.
