This necklace is made from various colored beads and canine teeth from various animals. This particular necklace has no specific location in Africa noted in museum records, however there are quite a few similar looking necklaces from the Xhosa and Zulu in South Africa. There is one necklace with very similar beads and design that is attributed to having belonged to a Zulu witch doctor, but other necklaces in other museums do not have such designation.
