I have four of these club like objects. The two I post here are the better ones and heavy. Had them for a long time and left them as curios in the collection. Now the thing is , I was encouraged to purchase the booklet " Power and Prestige. The Arts of Island Melanesia and the polynesian Outliers. Hurst Gallery, Cambridge Massachusetts 1996 " In this booklet a club is shown with the same general concept of form except the decoration and the square form striking end. The size is much the same, mine have seen heavy use. I think there is no denying the origin here. Funny how info turns up
