Combining the imposing form of a forged steel lance with the artistry of traditional Naga craftsmanship, this remarkable piece brings together weaponry, prestige, and ceremonial decoration. The double-edged blade features a pronounced central ridge and a distinctively notched, faceted bolster, its darkened surface carrying the rich patina of age. Alongside the shaft, a striking animal hair plume transitions from deep black to warm cream, secured to a authentic rawhide backing with careful hand-stitching. Vibrant glass beadwork borders the leather in red, blue, white, and green linear patterns, adding a vivid contrast to the aged materials. The result is a compelling example of the way functional forms became powerful expressions of identity, status, and warrior tradition in Northeast India.
