Meticulously hand-carved, these dolls represent the unique and cherished phenomenon of twin births in Ewe communities, which are seen as both a blessing and a responsibility. Such births are believed to be influenced by spiritual forces, and the Venavi Dolls were created to embody the twins, which were then either kept in local shrines or lovingly cared for at home.

This vintage Ewe Doll is a rare and authentic collector's item that bears the exquisite patina of age and use. Its surface showcases a fine texture that speaks to its rich history and cultural significance.
