    Description

    AUTHENTIC - VINTAGE - SMALL AFRICAN STONE PROTECTIVE VOODOO FETISH - LOME, TOGO FETISH MARKET
    The Akodessewa Fetish Market in Lome, Togo is a mecca to practitioners of Voodoo and they travel to the market from all over the African continent.  Many believers view the Marche des Feticheurs as a kind of hospital or pharmacy – it is the place you go when you either cannot afford traditional treatment or traditional treatment has failed you. Here you can find talismans and charms good for treating everything from the flu or infertility to removing the blackest of curses.
    The market also houses voodoo priests who bless, create talismans and charms good for treating everything from infertility to removing the darkest of curses.
    The small fetish on offer was personally purchased at the Market in August 2008 and was blessed by the senior Voodoo priest in residence. It is intended to protect your house from unwanted visitors. It has done its job well over the past 12+ years.
    Materiel - Carved stone, feather parts and grass
    Size (about) 3 ¼” high & 1 ½” at the base
