Description
Kings appear in public wearing voluminous robes and veiled, cone-shaped crowns (ade) adorned with colorful coral or glass beads. The earliest crowns were made entirely of African red jasper beads. The conical shape of the crown is also important: it refers to the inner or spiritual head (ori inu). Made from the ancient Yoruba town Ilé Ife.
