Art Is Power Vol. I — Dahomey Warrior Mug
Original artwork by Antionette Simmons Hodges. Designed for collectors, art lovers, and those who believe art belongs beyond the gallery wall.
About the Artwork
A heraldic Agojie warrior portrait on your morning mug — gold art deco framing, regal and commanding. The Agojie were the elite all-female military regiment of the Kingdom of Dahomey, trained from childhood as the king's fiercest warriors. They were not a footnote. They were the army. Their legacy was buried by colonial erasure and has been reclaimed, piece by piece, by those who refused to let it disappear. Drink your coffee with that lineage in your hands.
