Large Cream Water Buffalo Horn Cuff w/ rough cut black horn

Princess Abrehet of Shoa, a little-known figure from Ethiopian history, is said to have ruled with grace and diplomacy in the highlands of the Shoa region, near the Harar area. Though she lived in a time where male rulers dominated, her leadership was marked by wisdom, fairness, and a profound connection with her people. Her reign is said to have been one of relative peace, but she always maintained the ability to defend her lands fiercely if threatened.

This Large Cream Water Buffalo Horn Cuff with its contrasting rough cut black horn symbolizes the duality of Princess Abrehet’s rule — her soft diplomatic side, represented by the smooth and graceful cream horn, and her fierce protective side, represented by the rough, dark horn. Like the cuff, she was a complex figure, balancing strength and serenity, creating a lasting legacy of balanced power and justice.
