19th C. African Zulu Wooden Knobkerrie / Club

Item Details

Description

**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. Size: 20.7" L x 2.875" W (52.6 cm x 7.3 cm)

Provenance: private Glorieta, New Mexico, USA collection
