Just over 2 ft tall,any idea where they may be from?tourist stuff maybe?

Oooooh they are well outside my field of knowledge Keith, they don't look like any others I've spotted lurking in charity shops and at boot fairs!

I wonder if either of these two links will be of help:
http://www.lotzdollpages.com/lafrica.html
http://www.tribalarts.com/webboard/webboard.html

Fingers crossed they might point you in the right direction.
