This bell, created by the Kabre people, is a striking example of traditional African art. Dated to the first half of the 20th century, the bell is crafted from iron and features a distinctive heart-shaped form with a handle at the top. The bell's rustic texture and rich brown patina speak to its age and use, likely as a tool for communication or ritual purposes. It's currently housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art.
