The weights are not gold but were used in the trade of gold. Until the end of the nineteenth century. Gold(sika) was the currency of the Asante, Fante, Baule and other Akan peoples of Ghana. Used in trade with European merchants along the Ivory coast or Islamic traders from the north, gold dust was measured on small scales called ‘nsania’ using small copper, bronze or brass sculpted weights known as ‘abrammo’. Most people engaging in trade owned a set of weights ranging in appearance from small geometrically patterned weights to complex figurative and representational weights. Cast in the ‘lost-wax’ technique these small sculptures served to facilitate trade while depicting Akan values characterized through proverbs or popular sayings. Weights would carry traditional proverbial lore or simply show people in everyday activity or comment upon social and political relationships. Or to reflect upon religious acts and spiritual ideals. Humans, birds, wild animals, fish, amphibians as well as objects of everyday life were apt subject for representation in weights. Representational imagery derived from contact wit
