Fine Elegant Early 19th Century Polynesian Tongan Ula Throwing Club, War Club
Located in Point Richmond, CA
Presented by Tribalmania Gallery
Fine elegant early 19th century Polynesian Tongan Ula throwing club
Origin: W. Polynesia, Tonga (Provenance: Old New England collection)
Period/Date: At least first quarter of the 19th century
Materials: root of a shrub being very hardwood
Description: This rare type of ula is called an i ula tavatava or i ula mundu and is most known for its wide and slightly flattened flanged head. Its lovely head has 11 separately carved lobes. This one is special because of its superb incised handgrip, featuring a rich cluster of unusual geometric motifs and symbols! From experience, I've found that for every Tongan Ula in existence, there must be 100 or more Fijian Ulas...
