Kante Shopping

This was one of the very few places in Togo where I saw souvenirs for sale openly. The villagers make these items themselves, and I hope the whole village get to benefit from the sale of these small clay figures. We bought a miniature Takienta as a gift for a friend, but it did not travel well and was in several pieces when it arrived at its destination.

I personally would not risk buying one of the pipes, as you may have trouble if you get stopped in Customs.
