$12.01 Shipping Location: Denver, United States This is a Fijian war club and stand, believed to be made of Ironwood. I purchased it in Fiji in the 1990's but am not sure when it was orginally made. ... moreHistorically the club originates from the Pacific Islands & Oceania and falls under the categories of ethnographic artwork and antiques. The war club and stand were traditionally used by Fijian warriors and are made from a durable wood known as Ironwood. Unique as this is not the typical club head or "beaks" club design. I was told the intent of the design was to be a rib cracker... I just think it is a nice decoration piece but am moving overseas so don't even want to think what international customs would think of this...

ANTIQUE 19TH C FIJI FIJIAN GATA WAR CLUB
Up for Auction is an antique Fijian“Gata” War Club dating to around 1850-1900. This isn’t a ceremonial or dance club– it is the real thing and very heavy. It is about 100cm long and weighs about 4kg. It has a nice patina that you would expect for its age. A real talking piece. Probably the most interesting thing about this club was it was part of the collection of Sir Henry Wellcome. See below) The number and variety of Fijian war club is testament to the fact that Fiji was beset by a long history of warfare and rampant ceremonial cannibalism. This article aims to help the reader understand and distinguish the different types and their intended specialized functions. Fijian clubs were the most cherished personal possessions of the Fijian warrior. It was designed and made for specific purposes and there are approximately thirty distinct and ... morediverse types of Fijian War club. Fijian clubs that had been successfully use to kill were either inlayed with human teeth or by the cutting of notches on the grip. A club use to kill many enemies was believed to have a life power of its own or mana. A Fijian War club with large amounts of mana were sometimes placed in a temple to the gods of war. And became ritual objects in funerary rites and certain craft ceremonies. Types of Fijian clubs could can be further divided by surface ornamentation and design. Type of wood, and by the type and nature of coir sennet wrapping. If you are interested in these details I highly recommend the book Fijian Weapons and Warfare by Fergus Clunie to which a lot of the information from this article is extracted. Gata Fijian War Club- This is one of the most widely used war club in Fiji. The angled cutting edge was designed to cut through and snap bones. The spur on the very top perhaps represents the open mouth of the striking snake. Sir Henry Solomon Wellcome(August 21. 1853– July 25, 1936) was an American-British pharmaceutical entrepreneur. He founded the pharmaceutical company Burroughs Wellcome& Company with his colleague Silas Bur

This club is of traditional shape with splayed top. Knob-end handle, honey-brown patina, and especially noteworthy for it's decorated sinnet handle. The handle is wrapped with striped bands of braided plant fiber, braided plant fiber intertwined with red and green trade wool, and a shiny, very dark brown- black animal hair or hair-like plant fiber. There are also about 28 very tiny(1 mm) glass seed beads woven in towards the middle of the handle, some almost hidden by the braided cord. I don't know the significance of these beads. ... moreThe club shows much wear from tribal use and has a fine old patina. It is made of a very hard and heavy wood and is relatively thick. Unlike the later 19th century and 20th century examples. AGE: Early to mid 19th century. CONDITION: Good ethnographically-used condition. As shown in the photos and with the following noted: Small scratches and wear over all. Small, very old and worn down chips to the knob handle. Some areas of loss and fraying of the sinnet braided decoration, mostly on one side(the side that does not have many beads) Small thin craze lines to the wood, from age, at the head of the club. There are no cracks or losses to the exposed wood of the club head or handle. HISTORY: Purchased from an old collection of ethnographic items on the American east coast. No other collection history available. PLEASE NOTE: The low opening bid. With no reserve, is not meant to reflect upon the actual monetary value of the piece.

Antique Tribal Fijian Bowei Club - 19th Century
A fascinating. Arresting and highly decorative antique Fijian hardwood war club. Carved from a beautiful piece of age soaked Vesi wood. This artefact has an attractive dark glossy patina. With a long handle broadening into the head, the top half is encircled in a decorative chevron motif known as tavatava; said to represent traditional Fijian tattoos. The contrast between the destructive power of this weapon and its sleek. Natural beauty is highly striking. Beneath the tavatava pattern is a series of incised letters bearing the name: EPAKUKI" Almost certainly the name of the owner of this potent weapon. Though other examples are known, inscriptions such as this remain rare, providing a sense of depth and connection to the artefact that is not often found. Of all the Polynesian people. The Fijians were the most prolific club makers and ... moreare widely recognized as masters of their art. Producing a number of different forms, a warrior would chose a club that suited his stature and natural movements, using different weapons for different purposes.Bowei such as this were thought to be embued with their own special powers, and would have been carried into battle to be used as a close quarters weapon, wielded in such a way that the the club would smash through bone. A brutal yet facinating artefact. It is rare to find pieces of this type with inscriptions on the private market. Length: 28 3/4 inches. Condition: Very good. With signs of use commensurate with an antique war club. Fracture to one side of blade and two cracks to base, as shown. Otherwise in good condition and custom mounted.

Fijian Kiakavo dina wood dance club, 19th century, nice old dark brown finish
On the basis of the form and smaller size. Clunie(1977) regards these'spurred' clubs as dance and ceremonial clubs. This example is 30 inches in length and well formed by hand work. An dark old finish shows cracking from contraction and is worn away in areas showing moderately dark wood. The shape is typical for the form, with the main body gently arching forward. The far end has a raised ridge in the midline that shows only very slight chipping. The forward surface has roughly incised decoration. A raised comb is present at the fork from which the spur arises. A few pinprick holes are present along the shaft and there is a band of roughness of the old finish. There is faint evidence that a good part of the shaft was once wrapped. The terminal expands in the usual manner suggestive to many of a certain anatomical part. The aging of ... morethe finish and workmanship suggest a 19th century attribution. FOR ALL BIDDERS: Before bidding. Please be sure that you may legally purchase and receive the item.

Fijian rootstock (waka) club
A large and robust Fijian rootstock(Waka) club. Distinguished by two intact bands of coir sinnet. One just under the head, the second, just above the classic tavatava carved handle. This club possesses a warm medium patina, excellent wear which smooths the edges of the buttress root and towards the handle transitions into a kukui oil/ blood patina demonstrating its mana and confirming this is a club of an important warrior or chief. At 114.5cm(45” tall it is larger than typical. With a custom European base, ex Jean Edouard Carlier, Paris. Classic period Polynesian clubs such as this are now difficult to find. Good luck. British buyers, please be aware of your import duties, etc. before bidding. I cannot provide exact shipping until I know its exact dimensional weight which cannot happen until after it is packed, so please do not inquire as ... moreto an exact shipping cost. I will not ship internationally via Postal as there have been far too many problems with this shipping method in the past.

FIJIAN WIFE BEATING CLUB BOWAI
FIJIAN WIFE BEATING CLUB BOWAI Fine example. 21 length, early 19th century and dating to the period of rampant cannibalism. Wood, circular section and tapering with both ends slightly flared. Domed top and low conical butt with integral lug pierce for a wrist thong. Nicely incised in four broad bands of lime inlaid geometric decoration, principally hounds tooth. The surface with scraped finish and wonderful patina with about 50% lime inlay intact. These were used specifically for wife beating, a fundamental element of Fijian culture. At the time, human flesh was a staple of the Fijian diet, absent any spiritual context and simply the food of choice. Clunnie describes a hunting party returning by boat with the corpses of women and children hanging from the rigging, having raided a family washing cloths. This is from our own collection and ... moreone of the only two examples encountered in nearly 50 years.

19thC Fijian Ula or Zulu Knobkerry Throwing Club Africa South Seas Tribal Weapon
Unsure if this item is African or Fijian. I was unable to find clubs from either area which used a wrap like this one. the hide appears to all one piece with no evidence or sewing or joining suggesting that it must be from a tail or leg. It does not look like cowhide. I would guess it to be pig or boar from the small amount of hair left on it. Beautifully formed with graceful onion shaped head. Excellent patina/polish from wear. 23" Long Some older cracks to shaft and head. Animal skin wrap on shaft possible native repair? Seems an unlikely place to grip it.
