A strong statement piece, the African brass tribal pendant is the focus of this bold necklace.
Accented with three sizes of brass bicone beads: the large are handmade in Ethiopia; the medium size beads are from Mali, typically made from old coin metal and show some wear due to age and travel over long distances; the small brass bicone beads are individually handmade beads from Ethiopia.
The green Padre beads were originally used as a bargaining tool by the Spanish explorers in the 15th century in their attempts to colonize areas along the African coast and convert natives to Christianity.
