Small hand club shape. The club is black, rough and untreated with numerous deep holes. The handle has a triangular tip at the bottom, through which a twisted thread has been pulled. The stem is round with a uniform diameter. The transition to the spherical attachment is formed by a 4 flat piece in the dimensions of the stem. The top has the shape of a sphere, deep incisions running lengthwise over the whole sphere. Each prong forms a narrow surface towards the outside. From there, the sides slope outward so that the individual prongs are connected to each other on the inside.
