Vom Verkäufer bereitgestellte Beschreibung
Ewe Venavi doll, Southeast region, Ghana, standing on a rounded base, long feet formerly painted black, and straight legs, and outstretched hands resting on upper thighs, long arms. Well-defined abdomen, with colored beads at the hip, broad shoulders, small neck wearing a colored beaded necklace, an oval carved head, with expressive features painted in black, closed mouth, long almost flat nose, carved diamond-shaped eyes, round irises, large round ears, hair painted black; both show traces of use.
"The Ewe, who live in southern Togo and Ghana are the eastern neighbors of Asante. They are probably best known for their textiles and also for small wooden dolls called "venovi" or "venavi" which are used like the Yoruba people in Nigeria used Ibeji twin figurines, for protection of survivor after death of a twin. Some scholars state that they are also used as children's dolls as well as sometimes used as fertility dolls by women who keep these dolls under their mattresses or were worn under the skirts of young women to ensure fertility. Scarifications and added clothing and strings of beads reveal family and clan religious and social affiliations."
