This Zulu hardwood chief's staff is a representation of prestige and status. The finely carved dual snake motif adds to its appeal and detail. The staff is made of high-quality wood and is a perfect addition to any ethnographic antique collection. Its brown color gives it a natural and rustic look that is sure to impress. The staff is a perfect example of the intricate and skilled craftsmanship of Zulu artisans.
An absolute gorgeous and rare piece. Featuring 4 snakes moving up the staff. I believe this was once a museum piece (unknown from where) due to the white numbering on staff.
The staff measures 91cm in total length with a ball club width of 5cm and weighs 412gr
