BAMUN PRESTIGE COLLAR 104

These brass collars with buffalo or human heads were originally part of the Fon's (king) personal regalia. Other title holders could also own them. These examples were probably made long after the forced abdication and death of King Njoya in 1933. See Art of the Cameroon, by Tamara Northern.
