Par de pulseras de manilla de latón/bronze de África Occidental - Mali (Sin precio de reserva)
A striking pair of heavy brass/bronze bracelets, cast in the traditional West African style. Each bracelet features a bold, broad-crescent form with flared termini and richly decorated surfaces — including geometric patterns and ornate dot-and-line relief work, probably produced via the lost-wax casting technique.
The warm gold-bronze tone and subtle patina reflect age and use, adding character and depth to the metal.
Historically, such bracelets (often called “manillas”) were used across West Africa not only as jewelry or status symbols, but also as portable wealth and currency — exchanged in trade or as bride-price.
