This wooden fertility doll is inspired by a traditional Ashanti Akua'ba doll, originating from southern Ghana. The legend speaks of Akua, an Ashanti woman who sought the help of local spiritual leaders to help her fertility. They commissioned her a doll, and the woman cared for it as her own and soon became pregnant. The tale inspired the use of dolls to bring fertility, health, and happiness, and safe delivery to women.
