A hand-carved Namji (also known as Namchi) doll from Cameroon. Carved from a single block of African rosewood into a bold geometric figure, then dressed in dark-blue beads and finished with cowrie shells, coins, metal and leather. No two are quite alike in stance, face or beadwork.

Traditionally these are fertility dolls, given to a bride at her wedding and carried as a good-luck charm. Once she has a child, the doll is kept on the family altar or passed down to her daughter.

A beautifully tactile piece with real presence — lovely on a shelf or mantel, or gathered with others.

Colour: dark blue. Size: approx. 24cm tall × 6cm wide (base depth 6cm).
