Halo of the Ancestors Adornment

Some pieces carry presence.

Others carry the presence of many.

Halo of the Ancestors Adornment is a sacred vessel of memory — a handcrafted tribute to the unseen forces that walk with us, surround us, and guide us. Created in Burkina Faso and inspired by the ceremonial artistry of Baule masks, this adornment honors not just one face, but many spirits. Many stories. Many protectors.

What sets this piece apart is the halo of brass spirals that frame the mask — symbols of divine cycles, eternal energy, and the unbreakable bond between the living and the ancestors. This is not decoration. It is invocation. A visible representation of the invisible world.

The pendant measures approximately 5 inches in height and 4.5 inches in width, commanding attention while resting gracefully on a 21.5-inch brown leather cord (10.75-inch drop). The warm tone of the cord brings an earthy, grounded presence — complementing the bold radiance of the brass.

This adornment is for those who don’t walk alone.

For those who feel the weight of legacy and carry it with honor.

For those who understand that to be seen is not enough — it is to be surrounded, upheld, and protected by the wisdom that came before.

Wearing Halo of the Ancestors is a ritual in itself.

It is a declaration: I am not new to this. I am not here by accident.

I am part of something ancient — and I wear it with reverence.

Each piece is one of one.

Because your connection to the ancestors is uniquely yours.
