A lot gathering six old and very beautiful bracelets, whose tradition disappeared and coincided with the disappearance of most of the elephants in Côte d'Ivoire in the 1920's / 30's. One of these bracelets is marked with copper oxidation that occurred by capillary action for a long time in contact with a bronze because this type of bracelet was kept after the death of their owner in the family treasures.
