These are the first spears from that area I have seen. These are lovely and elegant examples and you have done a nice job of cleaning them without over doing it!

Outstanding!

Excellent collection of very uncommon spears.

The asymmetrical spear head (fourth from the top of those mounted on the wall) seems to stand out from the rest in terms of style, and it particularly caught my eye because I have a very similar example that comes from the Naga people of Assam in NE India.
