Commander tribe necklace in shells and jute natural fibers. Sold with its presentation foot. Total height 65 cm of collar. 27 cm width of collar. This necklace served as a distinctive sign for tribal leaders, marking their power and wealth. The cauris, this little shell, served as a bargaining chip. So the more the collar was supplied, the greater the importance of the one who wore it. Collar in superb condition.
