Clay African Sambura Fertility Doll organic home decor The sculpture measures 6 inchesWhen I found this little clay fertility doll I had no idea quite what she was or where she came from, but I fell in love with her. I've since learned these types of fertility figures are made by the Sambura people of Kenya and that she is probably just a couple of decades old. I just love her wide eyed expression, exaggerated ears, and the red and black painted details, including a red stripe that highlights what appears to be a row of three buttons.
