Just wanted to add this comparison to an African scepter with the same black white concept. The Solomon, Malaita Island example as well as a hanging adornment was also used as a scepter.

Just found this blog with great pictures. The Auckland War Memorial Museum looks an excellent visit. The only trouble is that it is on the other side of the world to me. I cannot afford that kind of travel
