- Sold with a custom-made stand - 

Baule ritual objects, ethnic group of the centre of Ivory Coast. 

The Baule divinatory mallet is also known under the name of “gong mallet” or “lawle”. The percussions of the mallet on the bell rhythm the trances. 

The sound beaten regularly produces a state of consciousness which is favourable to psychic communication with the spirits, the asie usu. through a trance of possession.
