Chapter II — Raising the Trono
07 / 18
Lucumí · Afro-Cuban Devotion
Four Tiers,
Four Crowns
I
Obatalá · Purity
White cloth carries the throne
Seven layered drapes of pure Obatalá cloth fall over
royal-blue satin
, the field every other colour answers to.
II
Changó · Fire & Thunder
Red is set, never softened
A double-axe banner in
Changó red
holds the crown of the trono — saturated against the indigo, lit by candle glow.
III
Oshún · River & Honey
Amber gleams in the brass
Five porcelain
soperas
rimmed in brass-gold hold the sweet water, beaded collares looped across each lid.
IV
Yemayá & Ogún · Sea & Iron
The base is laid in deep blue
Ocean-blue and forest-green cloth ground the lowest tier —
cowrie clusters
mark where the offerings rest.
