If like me, you often wonder, why Ghana -a country known for its gold -isn’t known for its goldsmiths -then wonder no more. The wonderful artisans at 9twenty5 -make the most delectable jewellery out of yellow gold, sterling silver, beads, pearls and much more. Their eclectic array of bold colourful beaded pieces and lovely delicate silver and semi precious gems alike are a big hit with Ghana’s fash-pack. I’m especially loving their high quality diamond brilliance Cubic Zirconia rings -set in Rhodium plated .925 sterling silver for platinum pieces -ideal for weddings and the gold and silver chains above. The staff at 9twenty5 also offer an array of services including: made-to-order, personalized inscriptions and gift packaging.

Object of Desire: Akua'ba Doll Pendant

“Among the Akan people of Ghana, the Akua’ba (fertility) figure has quite an interesting story. Legend reveals that a woman named Akua had difficulty conceiving a child. She commissioned a wooden figure called Akuaba and cared for it like a real baby. The women of the village called the figure "Akua’s child" but subsequently Akua indeed became pregnant. Since she bore a daughter, Akuaba primarily represents the female. Even today, women in Ghana who desire a child will carry an Akuaba sculptural figure to encourage conception.” www.sankofaworldpublishers.com

I love it…I don’t know if it’s made from real gold…but it looks fabulous. I would replace the black cord with my gold chain –and strut… $25.00 www.sankofaworldpublishers.com
