The one facted head we have is the second on the left in the above picture.

Hello DD,

Could you post close-ups?
(I can see that the rootball was left with a kind of rough finish but can't make out any facets. Not that I doubt you - just would be nice to be able to compare them... )

BTW, the far left piece doesn't seem to be a functional club - is this a purely ceremonial club or what's the story with this type?

Regards,
Kai

The club arrived today and it's a real nice one. Nice patina and carving job on the facets with a super dense head. I compared it with a Victorian era walking stick which exhibited a similar patina but only a half of shade darker than the club. So it is possible the club may be from mid to late 19th century it's a hard call.
