Glass pendant in the shape of a Black African's head
Not on view
Deep cobalt blue, appearing black.
Head of a youth with tight curled hair, deep-set eyes, broad nose, full cheeks, thick lips, and long neck; suspension loop projecting from top of head, pierced through sideways. Molded in a two-part mold with continuous seam running down sides of head and under neck.
Head complete but most of loop missing; some pitting, but black weathering and brilliant iridescence covering most of head.
