5th class chief stick

Sometimes things just roll on. Got this one at the car boot sale today for the price of a BigMac. I feel it is East African. I had to make three dots. I used Indian ivory, the original dots do not appear to be elephant ivory but they also do not appear to be bone as there is some sort of grain in the material when viewed with a x10 loop. The top is a white metal, I think not zinc. I have many African armlets made of the same metal.
