Dogon Brass Necklace Mali 54 inch

This Dogon brass necklace features a central, organically shaped stone flanked by two smaller stones, each secured within a hand-forged metal framework. The warm patina of the brass and iron elements reflects age and use, while the geometric wire construction creates a sense of balance and structure. The trio of stones adds depth and visual rhythm, grounding the piece in the raw materials of the earth.

Among the Dogon of Mali, adornment often carries both aesthetic and symbolic significance, with materials chosen for their natural and spiritual qualities. Jewelry such as this reflects a harmony between metalwork and stone, resulting in pieces that feel both sculptural and deeply personal. Subtle variations in form, craftsmanship, and wear ensure that no two examples are exactly alike.
