African antique metal ring artifact, in two pieces formed to join together, with raised pattern tribal details. This is a rare piece. This piece appears to be Kru or Grebo from Liberia - though this piece does seem more rare than others with open ends versus solid joined construction - as the patterns, style, four knobs and line art details can be seen in other pieces from these regions, but this piece represents a very unique joinery craftsmanship. This is LARGE - it is not a coin. This piece is HEAVY and 9&#34; in diameter when connected. A very fine piece of African antique hand crafted metal work.
