Patience Hand Crafted Authentic African Fertility Doll from Ghana

Rita Addo Zakour

(266)

A colorful diamond motif adorns her forehead and embossed aluminum appears on her skirt. By Rita Addo Zakour, this sculpture depicts an Ashanti fertility doll. In West African society women place great importance on childbearing, and a married woman without children is sometimes shunned. Parents give such a doll to the newly married daughter, as its presence in the house is believed to have special powers. When worn by young married girls in a carrying cloth on the back, these dolls are reputed to ensure they will have children. The artisan names this doll Dzigbordi, which means "patience" in the Ewe language.

This is now a cherished heirloom

An exquisitely carved, beautiful African wood Nativity Set for my Pastor who loves Christmas. Each piece had a soft feel to it as if handled like glass. The detailed carvings gave each piece identity and character as if coming to life. I am so happy with this creation and my congratulations to Thomas Kumah Nedjoh, the artist, putting his whole heart and soul into each piece.
