Beaded Throwing Flywhisk - Tribal Art
A gorgeously created beaded flywhisk. The handle is beautifully decorated with red and blue beads in an elegant triangular pattern. The handle is topped with an animals head delicately fashioned from the same beads and exquisitely detailed with white beads. The tail of the whisk is fashioned from a beautiful mane of dark brown horse hair which is deftly woven into the handle.
Dimensions approx. 62 x 6 x 6 cm
Beaded art from the Cameroon Grasslands collected between 1985 and 2005. Rulers throughout the many Kingdoms in the Cameroon Grassland region (Bamileke –Bamum -Tikar) employed a range of Regalia to assert their political, economic and religious power. Presented publicly in lavish displays of wealth and power, many court objects were distinguished by their elaborate bead embroidery. Imported from Venice, Bohemia or Amsterdam, glass beads were considered a luxury material whose use and distribution were controlled by the King. The decoration of objects with vast quantities of brilliantly colored beads transformed utilitarian objects into symbols of royal status and prestige.
All lots are in the state the collector acquire them. No restorations or cleaning has been performed.
