Set of suasa ceremonial ornaments.

Such luxury ornaments were used by the upperclass Gayo on Sumatra as part of the ceremonial wedding costume. 

These are the larger examples for the upperarm or legs.

The bride on the pictures is wearing the smaller bracelets.

Very scarce, the only similar examples we know are in the museum in Antwerpen.
