Wooden club. The club’s wooden surface is heavily decorated with brass studs at the striking end. Most of the length of the shaft is covered with woven or plaited wire in a geometric pattern. The end of the club is also covered with woven wire and what looks like the remains of a leather handle that is thread through a hole in the centre.
