About
Small handheld talismans created to emulate traditional Kente fabric stylings, They use Adinkra symbols of Gye Nyame and Adobe Santann, to provide periods of reflection and comfort. Adobe Santann represents the great expanse of creativity and actions, whereas Gye Nyame means “By the grace of God” a self affirming blessing – from a god creator that existed well before Judeo-Christianity arrived. These pieces are to be hung or carried as good fortune and prosperity.
