hi Tim! You keep finding the good stuff! another nice find!
I'm not so sure about the age though, the inlay looks rather new from the pictures, could you post some close-up pictures ? Still like it though, there seems to be a lot of Solomon island clubs lately and i believe there is no good reference for them (if anyone knows one please share!) |

At last it is here, UK customs can take what seems an age compered to travel time. Here are some daylight pictures. Does not have the patina I had hoped for but none the less it does have some age, certainly not antique in the strictest terms, even for the Solomons. However a handsome piece and very nice in the hand, shown with other clubs in the size range.
