The Story Behind the Product
Akwasi Agyeman was born into a family of 12 children in the small tribal village of Foase in Ghana, West Africa. The family was so poor that Akwasi was limited to only a 7th grade education in order to help his father farm to feed the family. In 7th grade his teacher asked each of them to make something for art class. Akwasi produced a Fertility Doll as his project and amazed the teacher. Akwasi knew then he had a natural talent for carving. After ten years and with the help of Fair trade Akwasi is now married with two handsome boys. He employs 15 people and has built a small three bedroom house for his family. Akwasi and his fellow artisans hope you enjoy their work.

I was very disappointed with this product. I bought 2 of these for gifts. Neither of them came with the earrings as shown in the picture. Very poor quality.
My best friend has been trying to get pregnant. I went out on the web in search of a fetility statue (you never know what will work) and found this, it was perfect!!!When it arrived, I was suprised at the actual quality of the product. I expected it to be a cheap trinket, but it is actually a very nice piece. She keeps it on her nightstand to bring them good luck. I would highly recommend this product.

Overall, I am pleased with this purchase. The craftsmanship is well done and it is a great size for displaying (9 inches tall).
I gave the Value a rating of 3 stars because not long after purchasing this, I saw a very similar statue for sale in another store for about $8 less.
It's still a great piece though, and I would recommend.
