Maya Angelou

Maya Angelou is not what she has done or written or spoken, it’s how she did it all. She moved through the world with unshakeable calm, confidence, and a fiery, fierce grace and abounding love,” said Oprah Winfrey, who calls Maya, her mentor.

It’s easy to be inspired by poet, writer, and civil rights activist, Maya Angelou. She also, at various other times, wore the hat of an actor, a waitress, a dancer, and a cook.

Our Maya Bommai though, wears a removable printed turban and can be dry-cleaned or wiped clean. The strong lips that spoke her truth are all we highlight, in hand embroidery. She wears a string of pearls around her neck. Her simple black dress is washable, and again, end of bolt fabric, sourced locally. She comes with a handcrafted cloth book and a pen.

The Maya Bommai comes in a little sleeping bag and pillow that make for neat storage.

Note: We use end of bolt fabric, the clothes of the dolls come in assorted colours and it may be different from the picture.
