Diola animist collars (Casamance, Africa)

You can find some seilors in the streets, but for finding the most beautifull and real animist collars, you must go to the Diola Market, near the artesanal center. There you can buy the collars or the magical stones and do it yourselve.
You can too go to the marabu, to do the traditional ritual and make some magial powers of protection to your stones and collars.
You can buy some by internet

What to buy: You can buy some magical collars and stones from Casamance, and Gambia too. In the rainning season is more difficult to find it.

tipical figures from the Casamance (Senegal)

You can buy to some artist arround the city or in the centre artesanal market. Where the artist sell their art.

You can buy some of them by internet , but then, it's more expensive.

What to buy: a lot of crafs, including wooden carvings and fabrics. Very beautiful are the women figures doing the typical jobs, and the fetiches.
