Well it has arrived and some new photos. So perhaps lime inlay is not so odd when discussing Fijian clubs. Now I have it in my hands although not one of those big heavy polished clubs, more like the shorter pole clubs. The grip is more suited for two hand gripping making a fast weapon too heavy for one hand use. Some file marks a nice old club and said to be a rare form so I am really quite happy. The grip pattern is tight. The original photo like many ebay photo and I don't know why are like the saying "you cant see the wood for the trees" The limpet distal part of the club seems to have been blackened some way, I imagine to make the lime stand out though there is very little left
