One of 4 small antique bronze ‘gold weights’, very likely from the Ashanti tribe in Ghana, West Africa. These little bronzes were often fashioned after local tribal villagers and were used to weigh gold.

nNevertheless, they are hand made and each one is different. I’d date them at around the 1920’s or possibly earlier.

nThey are being sold individually, so have a look at the others. This one doesn’t balance on it’s own but a little piece of blue tack would hold it upright.

nIt measures 6.2cm (approx 2 1/4”) high.
