Efua receives her name for being born on a Friday and according to Ashanti tales she was of remarkable beauty and chastity, and all the men wanted her hand in marriage. Kwame Frimpong hand-carves her image from cindera wood with manual tools to achieve the refined detailing that embellishes this doll. Color is achieved with mansion polish. Revered as a puberty doll of cultural transcendence, this replica makes for an exceptional addition to an international collection.
