Pieces like these were designed to be worn on the head as a supportive cushion, creating a stable base for carrying goods such as baskets, vessels, or bundles. The braided construction not only adds strength but also gives each ring a distinctive texture and form.
While rooted in practical use, these head rings also translate beautifully into modern spaces. They can be displayed as sculptural objects, used as unique stands for plants or vessels, or appreciated simply for their craftsmanship. Whether functional or decorative, each piece reflects a long-standing tradition, and no two are exactly alike.
