Vintage West African Heavy Brass Manilla Currency Bracelet Engraved Bangle 4″

This is a substantial vintage West African brass manilla-form currency bracelet, approximately 4 inches in outer diameter, with a wide, flat-topped profile featuring hand-incised geometric decoration including fine parallel line hatching and rows of raised dotted beading. The piece has an open-gap construction typical of manilla-style trade currency pieces used across West Africa. The brass shows a warm antique patina with areas of surface darkening and age wear consistent with genuine vintage use; some pitting and roughness is visible at the gap/terminal ends. No maker’s mark or hallmark is present; no tribal attribution is made without verified provenance.
