Description
GABON, Kota (?). A brass and copper necklace with a geometric design, comprising fifteen rows of rings joined by through-pins. Late 19th century. Height: 4.5 cm – diameter: approx. 13.5 cm. Damage and missing parts. Provenance: collected in situ by Camille Urbain Narcisse CUNY (1863–1917), then passed down through the family. Camille Cuny, an accountant, made two trips to Gabon-Congo, the first between March 1893 and March 1896, and the second from October 1899 to October 1900 (see list of his places of residence, military file – service record sheet 641 –, Vosges Departmental Archives, reference 1R1317-112473). Family tradition holds that he took part for a time in Captain Jean-Baptiste Marchand’s mission.
