YORUBA
Beaded Sheath 3
44.5" high x 3.25" wide
$1500

Sheath 3 has not been vetted and could have been made to be sold.

It is too narrow and tight to have been used for an Oko staff.  I have not found any published examples of sheaths this narrow so I don't know for what it was intended. The beadwork, more free-form and playful than usual, is in excellent condition.
