Tribal Currency

Offered by: Mikel Welch

Description
This rare piece of African tribal currency embodies the artistry and ingenuity of traditional exchange systems. Hand-forged from metal, its sculptural form reflects both function and cultural heritage, once serving as a medium of trade and a symbol of wealth. Today, it stands as an object of history and design—equally at home displayed as a collectible artifact or styled as a striking decorative accent. Its patina and handmade irregularities highlight its authenticity and timeless beauty.
