content: A tall, thin wooden toy doll from Mali. The doll is carved into a basic female shape and roughly painted with water based pigment. Small girls in Mali will carry these wrapped in cloth on their backs as though the dolls are babies. This doll is carved from light colored wood and painted with dark brown skin, leaving the hair and clothing the natural wood color, with red and blue striped paint.
