Comanche Buffalo Horn Horsehair Club 19th C.
The lot features a very unique Comanche Native American Indian club with Buffalo horn head and hitched horsehair covered handle from the 19th Century. The haft handle is constructed of a carved wood core which is completely covered in hitched horsehair showing natural dyed colors of yellow, natural tan, green and red in a spiral linear design. The head shows two Buffalo Bison horn tips, turned down secured through the center with a thick Buffalo parfleche rawhide wrapping that is sinew sewn. The base shows a drop of natural and dyed horsehair with a hitched knob. Horsehair hitching is a complicated and intricately detailed craft. Its possibly that the Comanche who made this piece spent some time at Montana State Deer Lodge Prison where he learned his horsehair hitching craft. The club shows the correct patina, craftsmanship and origin to be considered a truly rare 11800's example. The club shows a break internally with the wood, the hitching is still completely intact in very good condition and when displayed on the wall the internal break is not noticeably present at all. The head can be removed for shipping and inspection. Provenance: From a large Western Cowboy and American Indian collection in Dayton, Wyoming. This piece measures 30" long with the head measuring 8 1/2" long by 2 1/2" wide.
