Kazi/Kunzi

Kazi/Kunzi is one of the five types of Udoli.

Udoli (u-do-lee) meaning doll or toy in the Zulu language is a modern tribal doll like style inspired by African and Caribbean culture.

Kazi/Kunzi: Taken from the words “Insikazi” meaning female animal and “Inkunzi:” meaning male animal. A Kazi Udoli referring to females and Kunzi Udoli referring to males is a style that encompasses the native animals of Africa. They paint dots around the eyes and make up to resemble the indigenous animals of Africa. But don’t worry the style of these Udolies are more fierce than the animals they represent.
