$100.00 Shipping Location: San Benito, United States Up for offer is a 19th/early 20th Century Tongan(from Tonga. Formally the Friendly Islands) north-east of New Zealand war(god? club. Intricately carved ... morewith geometric motifs. Just over 43"H. Quite heavy, perhaps made from iron wood, possibly"toa" Not sure if stone chisels were used, along with a shark-tooth tied to a wooden handle OR if iron tools were utilized for the carving. But the carving is rather intricate. I also don't know the exact name of the specific style of club this is as I know there's a heirarcy of designs and status. Good or bad, there's a"better/good" side and a not-so-nice side to the club which may involve some creative restoration altho the"good" side is certainly fine for display. There's also a drip of white paint- as seen in the photos- but I'm not going to dare to clean off. I will leave that to an expert to do. I took photos in different light conditions to try to show the fine carving as well as the'issues' I mentioned. Shipping to the US/Canada will range between $30-60+/ depending on final destination BUT I won't know for sure until end of auction. I only charge exact shipping cost! Low reserve. In the least this is a beautiful display item but I don't profess it to be museum quality BUT it does seem to be an older example for sure. I really have no idea how much this will cost to ship outside of North America. ALSO keep in mind some countries do not allow items of a certain length to be shipped so if you have any shipping questions, please get in touch sooner than later. On Apr-06-13 at 13:21:50 PDT.

Fiji tribal bark cloth painting or Tapa, ethnographic art, home decor
Archaeologists discovered a painted pattern of black. White and red among the ruins of an 11,000 year old house in northern Syria making it the oldest wall painting ever discovered. There was obviously a spiritual purpose in having more current paintings that resembled the first found. The house in Syria was likely lived in by Hunter-Gathers. Their paintings were geometric in design and showed a striking use of color. The Masi of Fiji are known for their exquisite textile work. The men soak the bark in water then beat it against a smooth tree trunk to expand it and make it softer. Once the bark is dry the women apply patterns using dye from plants. This painting measures 50"X36.5" No tares or holes! A truly beautiful example of this ancient art form. Very collectible and suited for the connoisseur.

African Wood Carving Female Bust Sculpture Mid-C. Fulani Himba Ethnographic Nude
An original wood carving from Africa. Unsigned. Pre-1970. Offered here is a stylistic rendition of a young woman of the Fulani people of West Africa. Beautifully carved stylistic coiffure and jewelry. Three-dimensional realistic proportions. Rough scrape marks of the sculpting tools form the cornrows. Crest, and chignons of the hair, eyes, neck jewelry and the simulated paint decorations on the cheeks of the face. In contrast, the shoulders, breasts, earrings and face are smooth and flesh like. The most obvious identifier of the tribe represented here is the elaborate hair style. Traditionally, the hair is colored with red clay, resulting in a monochromatic reddish brown look, as this sculpture closely portrays. The Fulani live across a vast area in west central Africa. With the largest concentrations of their 6 million population in Nigeria, ... moreSenegal, and Guinea. They are also known as Fulbe or Peuls. Some tribes are nomadic and pastoral, caring for herds of cattle, and some tribes live permanently in villages and cities. The major religion is Islam, and the women in the permanent settlements wear traditional veils. The nomadic women, in contrast, enjoy a greater degree of expression: dressing their hair in red mud and spending hours or days producing elaborate crests, chignons, braids, cascades, curls, and vertical cornrows. Jewelry is added to adorn the hair. Ref: Hair in African Art and Culture, Sieber& Herreman. The Museum for African Art. See photo. Book not included in sale.

African tribal currency Bamana iron oil lamp or candle holder ethnographic art
This is a multi-armed lamp with a cup to hold oil at the front. Oil known as tulu. Made from the Karite tree nut was burned in the cups to produce a dark, smoky light that was as much a light for ritual purposes as for illumination. Lamps such as this would serve in the house but also would provide light, real and ritual, for masks when they danced at night. The small forged bird at the top is praising God with either a Muslem position of prayer or a traditionalist animist's gesture of prayer. The arms of the lamp repeat this gesture. Small spoons hanging by chains were used to adjust the wick, made of twisted cotton burning in the Karite oil. This lamp with it's standardized forms is an example of the change of style in Bamana lamps as other forms of iron material became available and in this instance the arms and support of the ... morelamp is riveted together rather than fully forged. Yet it must be noted that the figure has been forged and hammered to an abstract figure in the profile. It measures 12" in height and 5" in width.

African tribal Tuareg large leather water bag ethnographic art, ethnic decor
Tuareg is a term used to identify numerous diverse groups of people who share a common language and a common history. Tuareg camel caravans played the primary role in trans-Saharan trade until the mid 20th century when European trains and trucks took over. Tuareg history begins in northern Africa. Many groups have slowly moved southward over the last 2.000 years following the promise of a more prosperous land in the south. Although most Tuareg now practice some degree of Islam they are not considered Arabic. Much Tuareg art is in the form of jewelry, leather and metal saddle decorations and finely crafted swords. They are located in Niger, Nigeria, Burkina Faso, Senegal and Mali. Please note the fine embroidery work on this bag. This work is done by the women of the tribe. This bag is rich in color. Very supple and in good condition. There ... moreare some areas that have been re-stitched to keep the bag from breaking under the weight of the water it carries. It measures 46" long without the shoulder strap and 14" wide. A very beautiful and dramatic bag
