The women of the Asante , also called Ashanti tribe in Ghana, treasure the fertility doll as a symbol of good luck , an aid for conception and a healthy pregnancy . Young women carry the dolls on their back wrapped in a piece of material or attach the doll to a cord and necklace to wear it around the neck .Different ways are used by the women to carry their doll for blessings and spiritual support.
This doll has nicely carved symbols on the back of the head and the warm patina of the wood it is made of shows the many years of its history.
