Age and magic hang heavy on this piece. Hand crafted many years ago, it’s a strong visual statement with its V of red trade beads, a scalloped horn shield, and two oversized tusks from a fierce beast.
A bridge of turquoise seems to represent sky, water, or perhaps the spirit. Inside the bowl deeply carved wooden beads hold court. Overall its arresting, beautiful, museum worthy, and comes across as very special.
Unisex, perfect as a gift for him, or something for you. Reversible. Wear it with layers like a bohemian goddess, wear it alone with a minimalist outfit and let it carry you through battle. People will comment on it and want to touch it; it has that effect. Like I said: magic.
Antique, very old, but age ultimately unknown. I do know the red beads are at least a century old, so thats a beginning. Vintage patina is appropriately thick, the cording is strong, one chip to a tooth exists, but generally in fantastic condition.
Hangs about 20” long to the top of the central disk. Disk about 2”
From a smoke free home. Will be sent with great care.

Although African, this has a Tuetonic presence.

@magpiemaven cheers! It’s got presence!
magpiemaven
@kyetaka it truly has. Waiting for it to warm up, we need that coffee in the Harbor date soon.
kyetaka
@magpiemaven yes we do! I’m dying for some good company! Spring has been a bit of a tease this year, though lol
magpiemaven
@kyetaka Tease as it always is. I’m waiting for 18 inches of heavy wet snow any day now. 🤦🏻♀️
kyetaka
@magpiemaven That’ll happen as soon as some fools start planting their tomato’s outside. Works like a charm every time.

@kyetaka Surely, it does. The calendar is very far off this year, have you noticed? When does the ice go out in March? Never!! 😎
kyetaka
@magpiemaven I know-!! Hardly saw any ice fishers this year, and then for the lakes to be free this early? I don’t like it.

@magpiemaven oh— I’ve got a new UPS man and he’s kind of hot. Too young for me, but great smile lines!
kyetaka
@magpiemaven alright, I’ve got to go pack (my studio is in shambles/boxes, it’s getting painted and stuff soon, very exciting for me hahahaha) - I’m offline for the night. Happy “spring” to you, my friend!
magpiemaven
@kyetaka Hahahaa!, Always a Bonus to have a cute man in brown to bring you “Presents”. I’ve been Bangin’ mine for 35 years . 😂🤣😂🤣💥💥💥
