This is a magnificent ritual relic imported from the Ifa traditions of Nigeria. It is a powerful babalawo crown made with hundreds of beads created in the images of Orisha Chango and sacred geometric designs. A beaded bird rests at top and the base is created with sturdy molded muslin. This crown measures approximately 16? in height by 9? in diameter, with the veil hanging an additional 17?. The muslin fabric on the underside is stained so I am offering this at a discounted rate. It is quite substantial and Standard Mail shipping will be $35.00. I will reimburse any overpayment if shipping turns out to be less. All auctions are unconditionally guaranteed and proceeds benefit of sanctuary in Northern Arizona, Littleorphananimals.org.
