Mali's old decorated pumpkin, West Africa. First half of the 20th century

Pumpkins have been used for centuries in almost all the African territory as containers for storing food and liquids ( Water, milk etc ...) due to its excellent insulating properties. It is also customary for underprivileged students in West African Koranic schools to wander through the cities carrying a container to fill with benevolent food., and the pumpkin was the utensil used for these cases. They are currently in disuse due to the arrival of plastic.

This precious piece is beautifully decorated with fire engraved geometric motifs ( pirograbado).
Its size is 18 cm high (7" inch) and it has a maximum circumference of 40 cm ( 15,7" inch).

In perfect condition.
Unique piece.

This pretty square pendant with geometric decoration is a traditional model of the Tuareg ethnic group of Northern Mali and Niger.
This model served as an amulet to its wearer since inside it could carry religious protection symbols and, even more anciently, animistic symbols for good luck or good health..

The engravings are handmade by an expert goldsmith hand, que, as usual in this type of pieces, leave your signature symbol on the back so it doesn't fall into oblivion.

The piece is set on a chain of small black glass beads of about 40 cm long but it is prepared with three holes of different thickness to fit a thicker chain or leather.

The material is called "Tuareg silver", a very low silver alloy but does not change color or rust.

Measures: 5x5cm

In East Ethiopia this type of pendant was given by the suitor to the girl he liked. The girls came to the market with this type of pendant on their clothes, in the hair or in the form of a necklace if it had "numerous" suitors and thus publicly demonstrated her beauty.

Aluminum is very recurring within Ethiopian jewelry, they used to melt the pans that came from Europe (Italia) to make beautiful pieces that do not rust or change color and that in turn are very light and comfortable to wear.

Completely handmade and decorated with 4 small red and blue resin dots of which one is missing.

What we like most about this little piece is the patina and touch it has. Unique piece.

The pendant is set on a long cotton thread with tiny silver beads ( no silver) de 80 cm long.
