Look, we don't condone the use of talismans to attract lovers or inflict illness on your enemies... but if you're going to dabble in a bit of ancient magic, you might as well go all out with a Nkisi. Rooted in the rich traditions of the Kongo people, these sacred objects harness the energy of the spirit world to heal, protect, and empower.

Handcrafted from materials like ceramic, wood, or cloth, each Nkisi is infused with potent "medicines" such as sacred soil and relics and adorned with cosmograms to amplify its power. Legend has it that the god Ne Kongo brought the first nkisi from heaven in an earthenware vessel. Over centuries, these traditions travelled to the Americas and the Caribbean, influencing practices like vodun and Palo Monte.
