Recade
Fon, Benin
Exceptional recade made up of elements recovered from a European weapon. The blade, incised with geometric motifs, presents at its top the face of a man hit by a rifle bullet, thus telling the story of a fight. The hilt and scabbard are also made from elements recovered from Western weapons. This recade is a testimony to the owner's success in a fight he is proud of.
