Three Senufo amulets Ivory Coast H. 3.5 to 4.7 cm Set of three Senufo amulets in bronze representing anthropomorphic characters in couple. Remarkable patina and good wear from handling. These amulets were probably used to protect twins, but could also be representations of couples of ancestors of the clan. See Blandin (1988, p. 88) for comparable examples.
