Some Zulu? Bits and Pieces.

Hi Norman

The first two (knobkerry and woman's belt), look like good old pieces, either Zulu or nearby peoples. The others seem of fairly recent production, what is the leg adornment made of ?

Hi Colin,
Many thanks for the feedback. I have no idea what the item is made from

but I have taken some more photographs which I hope will be helpful. There is a mixture of lighter and darker hair on the 'tails'. Of course it may not be a leg adornment

so I hope you'll be able to tell a bit more.
My Regards,
Norman
