Description
OLD & ORIGINAL, HANDCRAFTED BRASS Goldweight MEDALLION/PENDANT.
This Old & Original Brass Medallion/Pendant was skillfully Handcrafted by Baule Artisans in Ghana, Africa.
Goldweights were once used by the Akan people of West Africa as a measuring system to weigh gold dust when gold was a form of currency.
Each Brass Pendant is individually and intricately detailed using the lost wax process, no two are exactly alike. Expect subtle imperfections in shape, symmetry & size. As Natural oxidation occurs the Brass will darken. These are the qualities that add Unique Character to Ethnic Jewelry Designs.
This Pendant measures approximately 2 – 9/16 inches long x 2 – 1/16 inches in width. Length includes attachment loop, which measures approximately 1/4 inch (5 mm) inside diameter (Picture is example, yours will be the same style). Beautiful Criss-Cross pattern and Ornate Loops along the bottom allow for embellishing with Beads, Leather and/or Chain.
And it Will Make a Fantastic Centerpiece for Creating Your own Unique Jewelry Designs, or a Splendid Gift!! ~ ITEM # eth-333 ~
