Descripción : **Originally Listed At $400** Africa, South Africa, Zulu tribe, ca. late 19th to early 20th century CE. A hand-carved wooden club known as a knobkerrie, or an iwisa to the Zulu people. Highly burnished, this wonderful implement presents a slender, cylindrical staff that widens and curves gracefully to a spherical pommel. A small raised circle decorates the top of the pommel. The natural woodgrain of the staff boasts a gorgeous gradient starting with a chocolate brown at the top and fading to hues of reddish brown and caramel near the base. The knobkerrie has not only served as a crucial weapon of war in Africa and abroad, but also is used as a swagger stick, ceremonial staff, and even a snuff box among the Zulu people.
