Bijago Ceremonial Bracelet
It seems unfair to call this massive carving a bracelet. It’s so large that one edge has been deliberately carved concave to allow it to be worn more comfortably against their wearer’s side. The object was discovered some years ago in a collection of Bijago ceremonial regalia, mostly dance crests. It is adze carved, very dry and bears trays of white pigment. 12″ diameter on a custom base.
