About this product

Product Information

The sights and sounds of the Yoruba cosmos are made manifest through the pervasive use of beads. This spectacular book represents a collaboration between art historian Henry John Drewal and Yoruba priest John Mason. From the forests of Africa a thousand years ago to the bustling cities of New York, Havana, and Salvador, today, Yoruba religion has used beads to convey the artistic spirit and deep connection to the other world that its practitioners feel. This illustrated volume traces the history of the beads, their use, and Yoruba aesthetics and artistry. .

The seller was responsive to my questions and accommodated a request to hold shipping for a few days. The book arrived, well packaged, in great condition as described in the listing. They also included a protective plastic jacket over the original fragile book jacket that was a nice touch. Wonderful seller!
