<p>[QUOTE=&quot;2manybooks, post: 3256856, member: 8267&quot;][USER=1904]@popsycat[/USER]&#039;s comb looks like it may be Tuareg, with those silver pieces, or at least North African. The beaded mask is Huichol, from northern Mexico. The brass/bronze mask is West African (Ghana/Benin/Cameroon). There is lots of metal casting done in that area, with styles copied from one region to another. The brass/bronze plaque is from the same region, and may be specifically Cameroonian. They seem to favor those rings around the edges of their castings. The akua&#039;ba figure (the wooden &quot;doll&quot; with the round, flattened head) is a traditional form from the Ashanti/Asante of Ghana, but is now reproduced elsewhere as well.</p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=13464]@Northern Lights Lodge[/USER], I believe you are correct in attributing your bamboo comb to New Guinea.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
