Hello dear members,
I please need the advice of african connaisseurs ! I reserved this ethiopian shield, not my area of collection but I find it really nice with his decorations made of coins and nails, The question: it was sold as an antique one made with hippo leather. It's nice but is ( TOO MUCH ?! ) in good conditions... the coins are coming from all country: germany, french african and arabian countries... So I'm not sure it's an old one... For the central deco coins, I could read that one was dating from 1980 so... Just scrap / recent item ? or I wonder if the central deco is recently made on an old ( early 20th ?) shield ? What about the leather ?... Kind regards |
