'Face' club (?)

club arrived today, as described above. weight is 410 grams, wood is more of a dark brown than black.

vanadoo - i can now see the photo of your club with the offset head (couldn't earlier), very like a maasi rungu, not much like a dinka. the gold wire inlays show up better (have you updated the photos or are my eyes working better today?) anyway, yours is a classy club for a person of some importance and wealth.

mine looks more zulu-ish, the lanyard hole (non-zulu-ish) has a noticeable groove worn from a lanyard radially from the hole, at a slight angle from the haft centerline. the hole, if added by a more recent owner, has been there for a good while.
