Wonderful Late 18th or Early 19th Century Fijian Vunikau or Root Stock Club

This is a wonderful Fijian Vunikau (Root Stock) Club from either the late 18th century or the early 19th century. The club was made from the root stock of a tree. The roots were ground down and polished to create the prominent knots of the bludgeoning weapon. There are carvings at the base of the club, providing a grip for the weapon.
