Vintage Hausa Bowl - 1.1 Camel 211cm L × 62cm WA vintage Hausa bowl from Northern Nigeria, hand woven from grass and bound at the rim in deep mahogany leather. The exterior is densely covered in cowrie shells once used as currency across Africa and long held as symbols of prosperity while the interior shows a geometric weave in earthy greens and reds. Bowls like this were prestige pieces in Hausa households, brought out for ceremony and to mark standing, and years of use have left a soft patina.
