TUAREG, AME SSAQQAB PLATFORM LEGS, Niger
These legs have been vetted as authentic.
Four matching ame ssaqqab legs formed a litter on camelback,
then were turned upside-down inside a Tuareg family's tent to form a platform.
Although the wood is extremely hard, some of the ame ssaqqab legs
have eroded ends, splits or cracks. We have photographed them to show any
flaws in the details. The wood is dark and the apparent discoloration is
natural.
