This Bronze Bangle is made using the wax method of casting prevalent across West Africa. They were once a form of currency and an indicator of status, often forged directly onto a bride's arm as part of a dowry! They make an intriguing statement in a decorative tableau and would be the perfect gift for a bride with a penchant for cultural symbolism and history.
