African legends tell of a woman called Akua who wished strongly to have a child. To make her wish come true, a priest ordered her to carry a little wooden baby, resulting in the mockery of her neighbors. But her faith and devotion were finally answered with a beautiful child blessed by the gods. Inspired by this story, Akoma of West Africa handcrafts a fertility doll from sese wood, hoping to carry Akua's resilience to every corner of the world.

Your work is the breath of light!”

I recently purchased the ā€˜Akoma Geometry scarf- it is exquisitely hand woven by the hands of a true artist. One can tell that so much of who she is was delicately ā€˜threaded in each stitch. Stunningly beautiful work!
