Staffs made of iron and brass were displayed in royal compounds to affirm kingly power. Usually depicting a king with related motifs, they were called "Asen" and commemorated past rulers. There is one solid cast figure and one missing. Five of the hanging bead/cowrie ornaments are missing, as is one of the spring forms coming out of the lower section..

The stand is included.
