Moja Barbie Doll Treasures of Africa Series Byron Lars Doll 2001 Mattel 50826

The magnificence of Africa is artfully bestowed in this impressive fashion series created by New York designer Byron Lars.

Deeply inspired by both the treasures and traditions of Africa, Mr. Lars has combined ancient African symbolism with contemporary lines, resulting in a breathtaking collection of couture fashions.

Perfectly reflecting the grandeur of a mighty continent, Moja (which means number one in Swahili) Barbie doll is presented in a sleek ensembled of shimmering brown and golden hues. Her three-quarter length chocolate brown jacket is worn over a crop top that is adorned with multiple strands of ceremonial-type beads, signifying the African treasures of ivory, ebony and gold. Flared, hip-hugger pants feature lace that fades from the deepest brown to a shimmering golden hue at the hem. Her enchanting face and full lips are delicately burnished with glittering golden hues and her artistic eye make-up dramatically frames her exotic dark eyes. Decoratively carved faux ivory and golden arm bracelets are complemented by golden African designs printed on her hands and forearms.

Finally, her extraordinary hair-do of flocked faux braids adorned with faux ivory and golden beads majestically celebrates her African heritage.
