One of my favourite places in Ghana is the Kokofrom Cooperative. This is a tiny village with Artisans still practicing methods of making brass figures and brass beads that their ancestors were doing for hundreds of years... This year Funky Frog put in a large order of pendants and beads ... and while we were there we came across some fun Curios ... These are delightful handles have an imprint of a turtle on the round knob which is 1 1/2" across.... There are four handles. -
