How’s this for a statement necklace?! This Mofu Hammered Cache-Sexe Pendants with hand hammered brass bicone beads that came to us from Cameroon / Nigeria would certainly fit the bill for an outstanding and eye-catching piece, but that’s not the only way a piece such as this could be worn. Mofu and Kirdi Tribal Peoples used "cache-sexe" brass pendants and beaded aprons were created primarily to “hide the sex,” or genitalia, of girls and women. They were traditionally presented to a family upon the birth of a daughter, and they were worn on special occasions such as weddings and the presentation of newborn children.
