     Rare Protective Amulet

    This old amulet originates from the Bahuana / Yoruba tribe Democratic Republic of Congo.

    I would think it be be made from ivory, but it could be possibly bone. It has cracks from age.

    I am not sure how old this amulet is, but would estimate it to be quite old. Please see matchbox for size.

    It shows a pregnant woman kneeling with her hands to her ears. It was used as protection for mother and child during pregnancy and childbirth.

    From the research that I have done, I have found that these amulets are rare and fetch top prices at some of the renowned auction houses overseas.

    Postage with Postnet will be R110. I do not use SAPO under any circumstances.

    I do NOT ship overseas.

    Postage is at buyers own risk.
