WOOD Tribal Pendant (1) - Sitting - Vintage African Carved Pendant

What a find!!  This folk art pendant depicts an African figure with a tall pointed head dress.  This style of head covering was often adopted by a wealthier or higher status African person.  The carving isn't minutely detailed like some vintage carvings, but it is a very beautiful piece.

We are quite sure they are made from Ebony.

The pendant has been made by hand, in Africa, by true artisans and definitely a long time ago.

How amazing will your necklace be with some old tribal style or sand cast beads, with the pendant in the centre.  Or, you could just wear the pendant alone on a nice length of leather!

Measurements: about 60mm long (including the loop) x 20mm wide x 8mm thick (at the head section - thinner elsewhere) with a threading hole of 2mm.  Being wood, you can ream out the hole for a larger cord or rope if you so desire.

Quantity per pack:  1

These beads are from our famous bead haul years ago when we did a warehouse clearance from one of the original bead importers in the bead business in Australia.  You may or may not come across this style elsewhere, but not very often!  They are truly unique.
