AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A tribal heirloom bangle with Distinct 'H' Motif handcrafted by the Chin people
Myanmar (Burma)
This piece was created using the traditional lost-wax casting method, resulting in a solid, non-magnetic high-tin bronze alloy structure. The design features a prominent, integrated central "H"-shaped motif block flanked by distinct angled faces densely adorned with granulated spike/dot fields. The metal has developed a superb, untouched iron-colored/dark grey patina from extensive historical handling and generational use. The raised decorative dots show a beautiful natural smoothing on the outermost edges, consistent with genuine age and wear.
Diameter = 7.5 cm
Width = 1.5 cm
Inner diameter = 6 cm
Weight = 110 g
Very good antique condition. Shows authentic generational wear with smooth softening on the raised decorative granulation. Beautiful, stable dark gunmetal-grey oxidation patina throughout.
For a good impression, please watch all photos carefully.
Insured shipping.
Can also be collected in Ghent, Belgium.
