Tabouret - bois - ashanty - Ghana 

L'akua Ba des Ashanti est, hors d’Afrique la silhouette la plus populaire dans le monde. Dans le pays Akan, lorsqu'une femme souhaite avoir un enfant, elle fera exécuter une statuette Akua Ba qu'elle déposera sur un autel spécifique. Quelque temps après, elle reprendra cette figurine et en prendra soin comme d'un nouveau-né. Certaines figures de grande taille sont parfois sculptées exclusivement pour figurer sur un autel.
