Burkina Faso
H. 4.4 to 10.6 cm
Set of five bronze pendants mainly from Burkina Faso. Their varied form is mainly abstract. They are pendants for protection against diseases and evil spirits. The crescent-shaped models are thought to be related to the position of the moon at the time of birth (Blandin, 1988, p. 64).
