African White Yoruba Beaded Oba Crown
By Yoruba People
Located in Chicago, IL
The Yoruba peoples of Nigeria are some of Africa's most famous artisans. Their deep mythologies fired the imaginations and talents of skilled craftspeople to create extraordinary works of art.

Considered direct media to the gods, Yoruba kings were enshrined in beads to display their status, in birds to signify their ability to cross into the spirit realms, and in low-hanging tassels to remind others they were in the presence not of a man, but of a spiritually unique being. Monochrome and densely beaded, this ceremonial hat...
