Unusual Clubs
 
4 Attachment(s)
Hi All,

I recently purchased a couple of Polynesian clubs and haven't been able to ID them.

The shape of the first looks Fijian and the pattern on the second looks Tongan?

Im hoping that some of the experts may be able to help

Thanks a lot in advance

I'm not an expert, but both clubs look African to me, the second one probably Chokwe, not sure about the other. The Congo figure is interesting...

Thanks Colin. I did wonder about Chokwe for the second, I think that you might be right.

The Congolese figure is from the Mbole people I think
