Authentic Art and Ethnographic Objects From Africa / Custom Mounting Services
Seen as a sign of protection, iron snake objects were placed in homes and worn on the body. This iron snake (10in.) would have been a personal item of protection found in someones home. Its dense, ribbon-like body is curved with an arrow-shaped head at the top. It has become rusted with age but remains a symbol of strength and security wherever it dwells.
