If you have read one of my earlier posts this room will look familiar. Its my favourite room in the WHOLE WIDE WORLD. And in order to one day recreate it I have on my list a Zulu Headdress thingy. Like the one on the wall in this photo. Absolutely stunning as a piece of art. I'm not sure how easily I am going to get my hot little sweaty excited hands on one. Emmy wanted to bring one back when she was in Africa a couple of years ago but was made aware there may be a few custom issues......
Anyone know of anyone selling them online? (preferably legally!)
According to a website I came across called "African Home" this magnificent masterpiece is worn by Royal dancers in Cameroon during ceremonies to celebrate the prestige of the kingdom. I think I would celebrate every day if I had one of these on my walls!

That room is gorgeous, no wonder you want it! I love how the African headdress has been used as Art, what a great idea!
Ah, I think I even have a photo of the one I was going to buy - it was jet black and just divine ... darn customs! And they took my impala jerkey (dried animal flesh yum!) too ... I was assured it would get through! The lies ...
