Original/Reproduction: OriginalMaterial: Hardwood
Color: Honey brown
Original Description:
Being offered is a very nice and massive old antique Fijian war club called Vunikau.  This beast measures 42 3/4” in total length.  It has a big round grip and is a heavy solid club.  The top features nicely shaped nodes with a single node extending at the top.  The club sports a nice honey brown patina and most probably dates to the mid 19th century.  This club has several stabilized splits and crack lines but the overall structural integrity of the club is ...sound.  I can handle it with no issue or concern.  There are some old scuffs and other signs of wear also.  This club has seen use and the wear, lines and patina all point to its long life and adds to the comment “If these things could talk”.  The bottom of the club has 7 1/2” of zig zag carvings.  The carvings show some wear as would be expected from lots of handling in this area.  There is one age line in the grip section but it does not disturb the carving.  A powerful club with lots of character and being offered at a very low starting price.  Please e-mail with any questions.  Please view my other auctions for a great variety of swords, daggers and tribal art.
