About this Item
In Ghana, a raised trunk is more than a pose — it is a declaration of good fortune. That is why George Akologo designs this charming figurine to carry that intention into every home it enters. Skilled artisans carve it by hand from locally sourced sese wood, then coat the body in a deep, dramatic black finish. Thousands of tiny recycled glass beads are painstakingly arranged across the back, ears and eyes in bold geometric patterns, transforming the figurine into a dense, tactile mosaic of craft and cultural meaning. Set it on a shelf, a desk or an entryway table and let it do what it was born to do: invite good things in.
