What is a Gris-Gris? Originally gris-gris were probably dolls or images of the gods, but
presently most gris-gris are small cloth bags containing things such as herbs, oils, stones, small
bones, shells and various other items, gathered and assembled for a specific purpose.
The exact origin of the word gris-gris is unclear, but some scholars trace it to juju the West
African name for fetish, or sacred object. Juju maybe be an European translation for the
expression grou-grou , or the French word joujou, which meant "doll" or "plaything." Biren
Bonnerjea whose Dictionary of Superstitions and Mythology appeared in 1927 defines juju as
the West African name for a fetish, also called grigri.
The gris-gris became traditional in New Orleans where they were used for various things such
as attracting money and love, stopping gossip, protecting the home, healing and various other
purposes.
The Gris-Gris is made of ingredients, such as herbs, grains, gem stones, shells and other
various objects that are chosen for their colors, magickal and astrological correspondences and
properties to add to the powerful energies of the purpose of each Gris-Gris. The number of
ingredients chosen is always an odd number and never more than thirteen. The Gris-Gris is then
ritually made at an altar containing the four elements of Air, Fire, Water and Earth.
Our Gris-Gris are approximately 1-1/2 inches in diameter and 2-1/2 inches tall.
Handcrafted and offered to you for only $4.99 each (the best price on the web)
