African Wood Turtle Spirit Figure - Mali

$39.00

Most Africans have a strong sense of spirituality and their own connection with the environment. They celebrate and worship this spirituality through small shrines in their homes in which they incorporate objects that represent aspects of that relationship that are very personal to them, their family and their ancestry. The turtle always represents persistence and continuity. This turtle figure is a replica of one of those shrine objects.

This one has a string attached enabling it to be hung as an ornament.
