An African Heritage Necklace created from old cast brass bells worn by both Fulani men and women. Once the bells are worn down to nubs they are melted down to make near bells. It is combined with red Venetian glass beads from the European trade and tiny brass rings from the Giriama of Kenya. This necklace was designed and created by Alan Donovan of African Heritage.
