    I went to goodwill today and the employee set this out on table. It appears to be leather on top w/ 2 leather straps (1 braided 1 twisted) and stitches. It smells like smoke, beef jerky and age. stands 17 inches tall

      What would you like it to be ? LOL!! Has the basic Rasta/Knot -hair colours in the beads, but I don't think I ever knew a Rasta who would go to this much work. Maybe a "commercial Rasta". (99.99% are)
