Namji Dolls are traditional fertility dolls from Cameroon. They are given to girls to help them prepare for motherhood, as well as kept by older women to promote fertility. Namji dolls are also collected as family heirlooms and used occasionally in rituals. They are highly regarded collector items given their cultural significance in the Namji tribe.

Due to the handcrafted nature of these pieces, each one carries its own unique charm and no two are exactly alike.
