A pair of iron currency forms from the late 19th, early 20th Century. From the Gayhan village area in Northern Nigeria, these short hoe forms were used in transactions and to transfer wealth, and would often be turned into tools. Simplistic and striking with a beautiful patina, these everyday pieces have become works of art in their own right. Displayed on custom stands.
