The piece shows a solid hardwood staff which has been artfully completely hand carved showing a human effigy head carved top with period correct solid brass trade tack gripping area, incised geometric alternating square and triangle design further adorned by a blue, yellow and red ocher mineral painted finish.

The detail and precision in this piece is astounding along with the very well preserved good condition.
