Miniature 18th Century Brass Gold Weights of Linked Charms

Akan, Ghana. L:9 CM. £260

Finely Cast 18th Century Gold Weight Depicting Linked Charms. Akan Culture, Ghana

The quality of the casting in this gold weight is amazing in its detail and execution. The fine detail in each bundle is amazing and it is difficult to understand how the artisan has managed to link the two chains with fine twisted rope patterns together in one casting.

Ex Private Collection, UK

Estimated Period: 18th Century (For a similar example, see: Tom Phillips, African Gold Weights, p. 60).
