More recent auctions

I'm afraid this blog is turning into my commentary on eBay items.



Interesting Ethiopian spearhead. I think these are more like processional staffs or badges of office; they are too delicate to be working weapons. These are selling for <$20.00.

Nice contemporary Maasai moran spear, made from truck springs. Well-made piece, no patina (they are kept bright and polished in use, anyway. Selling for <$100.00. Older ones are selling for much more.




Well-made central African spear. Shaft was cut for transport, but point still fine. Would make a great display item. Sold for <$30.00.
