A very rare and early Kanak ceremonial war club from New Caledonia.

The majority of these clubs have broken beaks or beaks that have been repaired. This excellent example is completely original with no repairs. The patina is deep and rich, honest and real. We love the very straight staff and the skillful carving which gives the piece a heroic quality. This piece dates to the late 19th century with excellent provenance.

On custom bronze stand.

Last quarter of 19th century, New Caledonia. From the collection of Henri Louit (1846 - 1905).

Measurements: 31” height, 10.5” width (head to tip of beak), 5” depth (of base)
