- Temne Mami Wata Sculpture, Sierra Leone
- A carved wooden effigy of the Water Goddess Mami Wata, in Mermaid-like form.
- Measurements: The figure measures 21 inches tall on a professional custom display stand.
- Condition: Excellent, well handled
- Mami Wata is often described as a Mermaid-like Figure, with a woman's upper body (often nude) and the hindquarters of a fish or serpent. In other tales, Mami Wata is fully human in appearance (though never human Herself).
- The Existence and Spiritual Importance of Mami Wata is deeply rooted in the ancient Tradition and Mythology of the coastal southeastern Nigerians (Efik, Ibibio, Igbo, Bahumono and Annang people).
- Mami Wata often carries expensive baubles such as combs, mirrors, and watches. A large snake (symbol of Divination and Divinity) frequently accompanies Her, wrapping itself around Her and laying its head between Her breasts.
- Other times, She may pass as completely human, wandering busy markets or patronizing bars. She may also Manifests in a number of other forms, including as a man. Traders in the 20th century carried similar beliefs with them from Senegal to as far as Zambia. As the Mami Wata Traditions continued to re-emerge, Native Water Deities were syncretized into it.
- While commonly seen with a mirror in Her hand, Mami Wata is able to embody Ritual Performances and Worship Ceremonies for Her Followers through this instrument. Her mirror represents a movement through the present and the future; Her Devotees are able to create their own reality through imaging of themselves in their own recreation of Mami Wata's World. In this World, one can embody Her sacred powers, fulfilling the inventions of their own reality
- Traditions on both sides of the Atlantic tell of the Spirit abducting her followers or random people whilst they are swimming or boating. She brings them to her Paradisiacal Realm, which may be underwater, in the Spirit World, or both. Should She allow them to leave, the travellers usually return in dry clothing and with a new spiritual understanding reflected in their gaze. These returnees often grow wealthier, more attractive, and more easygoing after the encounter.
- In Nigeria, devotees typically wear red and white clothing, as these colors represent that particular Mami's dual nature. In Igbo iconography, red represents such qualities as death, destruction, heat, being male, physicality, and power. In contrast, white symbolises death, but also can symbolize beauty, creation, being female, new life, spirituality, translucence, water, and wealth.
- The Mami Wata Shrines may also be decorated in these colors, and items such as bells, carvings, Christian or Indian prints, dolls, incense, spirits, and remnants of previous sacrifices often adorn such places.
- Custom mount/ stand included.
- Origin is Temne People, Sierra Leone, West Africa.

Great Clean Alternative to Traditional Mouthwash, LOVE this!!
Flavor Name: Mint, Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I’ve been really impressed with these Boka mouthwash tablets. They’re fluoride‑free and alcohol‑free, which is exactly what I was looking for, and the hydroxyapatite is a nice bonus for supporting enamel without the harshness of traditional mouthwashes. The tablets dissolve easily, the flavor is refreshing without being overpowering, and there’s no burning sensation at all. Do NOT chew and swallow like I did the first time. Chew, get salva going and swish. My teeth never felt so clean!!!
I also love that they’re travel‑friendly and cut down on plastic waste compared to big bottles. My breath feels fresh, and my mouth feels clean without that chemical aftertaste. If you’re trying to switch to a cleaner, gentler oral‑care routine, these are a great option.

Tasty, effective, and helpful against thrush
Flavor Name: Citrus Mint, Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is a good plastic-free, portable form of mouthwash. Pop one or two tablets in your mouth, chew well, add a little water if your mouth is particularly dry (mine is), swish, and spit. That's it. They don't burn like regular mouthwash, and they leave a nice flavor that isn't overpowering and that lasts longer than other mouthwashes have for me. It's a balanced flavor, if that means anything to you - basically, my mouth somehow feels right afterwards.
I was skeptical about the claim that these improve the mouth microbiome, but they've virtually eliminated the thick white layer (presumably thrush) that I've been fighting to clear off my tongue forever. So, yeah, these are definitely a winner.

More like a mint candy than mouthwash.
Flavor Name: Mint, Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Hard to describe this product. Does it work like your typical mouthwash? No. Does it leave your mouth feeling minty and fresh? Yes, to a certain extent. Would I consider this an alternative to mouthwash on a consistent basis? No, it's ok for traveling because it's easy to transport.
When you chew this tablet, it has the texture and feel of a traditional mint. It's chalky and breaks up easily.
