This doll is created in homage to Marie Laveaux, the Voodoo Queen of New Orleans. More than anyone else, Marie Laveaux put New Orleans Voodoo on the map with her powerful magic and infamous ceremonies held in what are now Congo Square, Bayou St. John, and Lake Pontchartrain. Oral traditions suggest that the occult part of her magic mixed Roman Catholic beliefs and saints with African spirits and religious concepts. She is celebrated every year on St. John’s Eve, the foremost Voodoo holiday in New Orleans. St. John’s day corresponds with the summer solstice. This same celebration has taken place for almost 300 years; many of those years in Congo Square. In recent years, the celebration has taken place on Bayou St. John.
Marie Laveaux Devotional Altar dolls are lovingly constructed out of a base of sticks and Spanish moss, hand-stitched with the finest fabrics, and adorned with ribbons, fancy yarns, buttons, and feathers. Her face is carefully sculpted out of clay with painted details. Each powerful Marie Laveaux Devotional Altar doll is carefully prepared to enhance your connection to the Mother of New Orleans Voodoo. Measures approximately 10 x 5 inches and is self-standing. Due to the high demand for my altar dolls, please allow 3 to 4 weeks for the creation and shipment of your doll.
