Forged by local Ghanaian artisans and smiths at our *Kumasi* workshop using the lost wax casting process. Our beautiful *gender neutral* Duafe bangal is made of brass. Our pieces are known to be conversation starters and a casual statement piece to be worn at any occasion. 

Due to the handmade nature of this item, each piece is unique, one of the same & any variations are considered part of the beauty of the design. 

Our bangals are adjustable, however if you would like a closer fit, let us know as (note in your order) your wrist size. If you don't know your wrist size, send us a picture of your wrist at adinkrajewelers.com

Symbol Meaning

• Duafe : Feminine power, an ancient symbol since the time of the Nubians.
  

Adinkra symbols were originally created by the Gyaman clans from the Brong Ahafo region of Ghana hundreds of years ago. The adinkra symbols represent popular proverbs and maxims, they record historical events, and express particular attitudes or behavior related to depicted figures.

We’ve re-erected these precious and rich symbols and forged them in a modern ready to wear jewelry collection.
