Handmade by the Wolof of Senegal to honor the eternal power, strength and countless contributions of African Queens throughout the world, yesterday and today.

Lingeer/Linguère was the title given to the Mother or Sister of a King in pre-colonial Senegal. The word "Lingeer" means "Queen" or “Princess” in the Wolof language. These powerful Women were said to both make and unmake Kings & history remembers their significance in resistance efforts to colonial conquest.

These beautiful Lingeer Dolls, handmade by the Wolof of Senegal, honor and represent the eternal power, strength and countless contributions of African Queens throughout the world, yesterday and today.

Size: Seated dolls are approximately 8" tall. Standing dolls are approximately 12" tall.
