Product Details
The inspiration
In parts of Africa, the Caribbean, and North and South America, Mami Wata is revered as the Mother of Water, where water is acknowledged as both life-giving and destructive, possessing the ability to sustain and destroy human civilisations. We share a close bond with her, even before we were introduced to the world, as we spent nine months floating in the waters of our mother's womb.
She is a captivating water spirit - half-woman and half-fish, with long flowing hair. Irresistibly seductive but also iconically feared, she is adorned in gold, pearls, and diamonds. Alongside her sisters, she is believed to reside in the Ikpobo River, located in Benin City, Nigeria.
