PNG stone star club.
My latest toy. Beautifully carved and tactile stone star club. Pictures are poor due to fading light. The head was loose but on inspection there was the remains of some sort of waxy resin. I have resecured the head with my own wax resin which is slightly softer less brittle than what remained of the original masic which still felt waxy. Perhaps some brittleness comes with years? There is also a metal disc and nail like things in the end of the harft. The stone appears to be a hard stone {granite like} not basalt which the flat disc stone club heads are made of. The stone head could easily be old.
