Product Description

Traditionally these shields were used as defensive weapons and also as decorative or ritual objects, which in Cameroon symbolise status and wealth. Hand carved from one piece of wood and decorated by large groups of locals making up the Tikar Tribe makes each shield a unique piece.  

The shields are adorned with a combination of beads, cowrie shells and manilla string.

They come with a wall fitting on the back to make it easy for hanging.
