item #432

from: Ghana

tribe: Ashanti

material: Silver

price: $3750.00

Although not gold, this bracelet is made in the style of the gold bracelets the Ashanti prefer. This bracelet, in solid metal, would be astronomical in price in solid gold. In the same way that the Ashanti use gold leaf-covered wood to replace solid gold, they may also make items in silver to represent an item traditionally made in gold.
