Namchi/Namji dolls are carved from African Rosewood, a legume tree native to the Democratic Republic of Congo, Cameroon, Gabon and Equatorial Guinea. A single block of African Rosewood wood is hand carved into a geometric shape and decorated with multi coloured beads, metals, fibre, cowrie shells, coins, and even leather. Each doll is carved with a unique stature and facial expression. Unadorned dolls made by blacksmiths are played with by young children.  Size: H 28cm W 10cm D 8cm Base Depth: 10cm Dust Regularly: Dust the doll gently with a soft, dry cloth or a soft-bristled brush to maintain its shine. Spot Cleaning: Use a slightly damp cloth to wipe the doll if necessary, but allow it to dry completely afterward. Avoid Chemical Cleaners: Do not use polishes, detergents, or chemical cleaners, as they can damage the natural wood patina and the bead attachments. Handle with Care: Handle the doll from its base, avoiding pressure on the delicate bead, shell, or leather attachments.
