Heavy anklet, U-shaped body and massive terminals faceted with typical geometric motifs. Much used by Tuareg tribes of Mali and Niger.

On the African coast lies the birthplace of this beautiful and rare bronze manilla (bracelets). Originally made of copper or brass, later sometimes also of iron or other metal alloys, they became the main means of payment from the Gold Coast deep into the Niger for a long time.

The Tuareg people inhabit a large area, covering almost all the middle and western Sahara and the north-central Sahel. They are probably descended from the ancient Libyan people of the kingdom of the Garamantes, described by Herodotus. Tuareg are mostly nomads. For over two millennia, they operated the trans-Saharan caravan trade connecting the great cities on the southern edge of the Sahara via five desert trade routes to the northern coast of Africa

Actual dimensions:
diameter: 102x66 mm, width: 34 mm thickness: 19 mm, extarnal dimensions 102 x 110 weigth: 830 gram.
