Story behind the product~ Beads are considered sacred to the Yoruba, and only kings and priests powerful enough to span the boundary between the secular and the divine are allowed to wear them. The crown is the most important object in royal Yoruba regalia. The beaded veil that hangs down from the headdress is an important part of the crown. By covering the king’s face, the veil downplays the king’s identity as an individual and reinforces his role as divine leader. The faces on the crowns represent and honor ancestors. The inclusion of birds on many of the crowns refers to the spirit world and the king’s ability to mediate between the realms of human beings and spirits.
