Tribal Bronze Bangle with Distinct 'H' Motif - Chin - Asia (No reserve price)

A tribal heirloom bangle with Distinct 'H' Motif handcrafted by the Chin people Myanmar (Burma) This piece was created using the traditional lost-wax casting method, resulting in a solid, non-magnetic high-tin bronze alloy structure. The design features a prominent, integrated central "H"-shaped motif block flanked by distinct angled faces densely adorned with granulated spike/dot fields. The metal has developed a superb, untouched iron-colored/dark grey patina from extensive historical handling and generational use. The raised decorative dots show a beautiful natural smoothing on the outermost edges, consistent with genuine age and wear. Diameter = 7.5 cm Width = 1.5 cm Inner diameter = 6 cm Weight = 110 g Very good antique condition. Shows authentic generational wear with smooth softening on the raised decorative granulation. Beautiful, stable dark gunmetal-grey oxidation patina throughout. For a good impression, please watch all photos carefully. Insured shipping. Can also be collected in Ghent, Belgium.
