This is the rating and price for A Superb Pende Ivory Pendant


Description : Pende, D.R. Congo, H: 2Of classical form, the ivory patinated to a deep honey-yellow, reverse darker, pierced for attachment. Comments: Such ivory pendants, known as Gikhokho or Ikhoko, were worn traditionally by the Pende as miniature representations of larger wooden masks and used as amulets. This example clearly refers to the Giwoyo mask. Its fine patination suggests a great deal of traditional usage.
