Forged by local Ghanaian artisans and smiths at our Kumasi workshop by hand. This is a one of a kind vintage, Ghanaian hand carved ebony wood comb with a rich silver plated brass overlay. 

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. 

  • The lizard which is prominent in Ghana normally sits and suspends on the walls of home. People may move in and out of the house but the lizard is always there. That is why it is called "Efiewura also meaning "Landlord" which is the master of the compound. 

Perfect to use as a center or wall piece.

Why The Akan Index?

Handmade in Ghana

Authenticity is everything. We felt that it would not pay homage to our rich culture to place the production of our artifacts in the hands of others. Therefore we employ local smiths and artisans here in Ghana who understand the cultural relevance of our products to design and produce our pieces.

Responsible Labor

We've taken an oath to support healthy, happy & financially beneficial working conditions. We directly employ the original smiths of our ancient jewelery with fair wages and give tribute to the royals who have adorned them for generations. No part of our supply chain is left out, and we're always working to do better.

Cultural Education

Before you wear our pieces, we strive for you to know the history and significance of what you wear and of the people who craft them. It's not just a trendy fashion statement, it's a historical piece that connects us to a lineage of black culture going back thousands of years.
