Oceanic Club-Opinions?

Hi Folks,
I have enjoyed your site for several years,and now a new member.Thank you for letting me on board.Great Stuff!!! I am starting my first post with a very short pole club that I have always assumed to be of Fijian origins.The club is 25 inches,and made of a very dense black Pacific hardwood,which also appears to be stone/shell carved.The handle is carved in a much different form than the usual.I have a modest collection of tribal art,and this differs in the style than the 60+ oceanic clubs in my group.I have seen some Fijian clubs with Tongan,as well as Maori motifs/designs,and wanted to get any opinions that one may have? Thank you in advance.Michael
