Schmuck-Anhänger / Bat- and Crab-Pendant / Akan

Item Details

Description

Schmuckanhänger
Akan, Côte d’Ivoire
Ohne Sockel / without base
Goldlegierung, ca. 9 Karat. B 12 cm.

Provenienz:
- Galerie Walu, Zürich (1989).
- Nachlass Dr. H. und C. Baumann, Bern.

Expertise der Schweizerischen Edelmetallkontrolle (ca. 9 Karat).

Dem wertvollen Edelmetall der ehemaligen „Goldküste“ Afrikas galt Jahrhunderte lang das Interesse und Verlangen der afrikanischen und europäischen Kaufleute. Durch den Handel stiegen mächtige Staaten auf, deren Reichtum und Fertigkeit in der Goldverarbeitung zur Legende wurden. So entstanden an den Königshöfen der Akan meisterhafte Schmuckstücke in hoch entwickelten Herstellungsverfahren, v.a. aber im Wachsausschmelzverfahren.

Noch heute dient der Goldschmuck als Zeichen von Rang und Zugehörigkeit bei selbst darstellenden Festlichkeiten der königlichen Familien. Die starke Aussagekraft dieser Unikate spiegelt die reiche Metaphorik der Akan wider und gründet auf der Tradition der hoch geschätzten Redekunst.

Die dargestellten Motive, hier ein abstrahierter Krebs, weisen stets auf Personen, Tiere oder Gegenstände hin, die allegorisch für lobenswerte Eigenschaften und Sinnsprüche stehen.
