Oh I kind of messed up with the pics the last post, but, it finally arrived so these are the right photo's!
I bought it for 30,- euro's. The seller could only tell me it was from Rwanda and that his uncle brought it with him a long time ago. Sooo, how old can it be? And is it Hutu for certain? |

Hello Sebastian!
Your link implies Equatorial guinea... But I have no idea how widely this style may reign.  spiral |

Because I certainly saw Rwanda as its place of origin several times, but even within Rwanda a dozen tribes used them apparently. |
