A ‘kalabubu’ was always worn by men and was once restricted to head hunters and warriors. The circular form is made from coconut disks joined together and finished with either brass or gold terminals. The gold versions of northern Nias known as ‘nifitali-tali’ were exclusively worn by high ranking men on festive occasions such as the owasa feast. In difference to those from northern Nias which are finished with gold, the southern examples like this one were finished with brass.

The item is nice. The seller is real professional (only DHL in Greece seems to have problems.The tracking system stops updating just after departing the origin country and for 6-7 days gets "freezed")

Thank you 😊

Kaunis koroste-esine. Luinnonmateriaali tekee siitä huippuhienon. Juuri minun makuuni. Tuo mielenrauhaa ja harmoniaa huoneeseen. Onnistunut ostos. Kiitos! Airi Järvinen

After not receiving my stone, I contacted them and got the response that they could not find the stone (the stone went up in smoke). Probably not satisfied with the agreed price agreement...

Na annulering van de verkoop, werd de belofte gedaan van terug betaling van het betaalde bedrag. Echter na een week nog niets daarvan gezien.
