Bring home a piece of West African tradition with this vintage Ashanti fertility doll, also known as an Akua'ba. Hand-carved from solid wood, this culturally significant figure features a stylized, oversized circular head, serene facial features, and a cylindrical form typical of the Ashanti tribe of Ghana.
Traditionally carried by women as a symbol of fertility, protection, and beauty, this Akua'ba doll represents one of the most iconic figures in African tribal art. Whether you're a collector, decorator, or lover of global folk art, this unique piece adds a meaningful and striking touch.
