Description

A nice carved Ashanti Warri game in a good condition. It is decorated with nice stripes and 7 triangles on each side in the middle. It has a bit of wear and tear because it has been played and moved around for many years.

 

Warri is a count and capture bead game that is played all over Africa with many different variations. This is the one played in Ghana and other parts of West-Africa. The game has many names, but the rules are almost always the same.
Provenance: Private collection. F.d.G in NL / Tribal Art Treasures
