Any Info please

Can someone help with some info. Are these New/Old. What are they made from and where do they come from?

 

The pair with cowie shells look like Asante (Ashanti) Akuaba
of Ghana Africa.....possibly fertility sculptures? The majority of African carvings I have seen have been new - tourist trade stuff.

 

Yes, the two matching dolls with the cowrie shells are simple versions of Akua'ba (they usually have arms). They may or may not be from Ghana - they have become popular subjects for many commercial carvers in West Africa. You can find some basic information on the tradition of Akua'ba here:

The style of the seated maternity figure (specifically the facial features) looks like it may have been made by a Yoruba carver, from Nigeria. It is interesting that she is modestly dressed. Most traditional figures are minimally clothed.

I agree that all three were probably made for sale rather than indigenous use.
