Guinean Middle Fly River Arrow with Serrated Tip

A thin, cream-colored point above a shaft wound with black and cream bands.

This arrow with a serrated tip is from Papua New Guinea. It is bamboo & pigment. Serrated arrow points carry a row of notches or barbs cut along the edge, a form found on hunting and fishing points in many parts of the Pacific. A narrow pale tip tapers to a fine needle above a speckled, grey-white section. The shaft below has dark banded wrappings with cream gaps, then a dark, reddish stepped base with small chipped patches. It is 54.5 inches high.

Restrained dress for a pointed little character.
