This magnificent African Yoruba King Crown is expertly crafted with a variety of glass beads that vividly portray the king and his entourage. Measuring approximately 28.5" h by 11" in diameter, the crown's intricate details and vibrant colors symbolize its immense power. Despite minor bead loss from use and age, the crown remains in good overall condition. Yoruba rulers wear these elaborately beaded crowns during important state events and public functions to honor their ancestors, including the legendary king of the Yoruba people, Oduduwa. The repeated patterns in the design represent the interconnectedness of all life and the delicate balance required to sustain it.
