Fante comb with a knot motif, head with hairstyle, and symbols of a stool, Christian cross, and three-legged cooking pot. The scene depicts two women sharing in the pounding of grain, while a chicken — representing fertility — and a dog — representing loyalty — look on. On the back is depicted the emblems of a fish, a serpent, a lion couple, a dog, star and moon. Ex Sotheby’s.
