This is a vintage African Wildebeest horse fly whisk/swatter from Africa. (That was the information shared with me about the origin of this item). It has a hand-carved dark wood handle. It is also adorned with decorative metal coil wraps. It was traditionally used as a ceremonial or status symbol in many African regions. It is in excellent shape. The coloring is beautiful. Total length approx 31”. See pics as they are included in the description. Unique! Shipping as little high due to length.
