A rare and visually striking trio of antique wooden Indian clubs, traditionally used for strength training, juggling, and circus performance.

These hand-turned clubs feature original black painted bands and a naturally aged patina that speaks to their authentic antique appeal.

Their sculptural form and rustic finish make them equally suited for decorative display or as collectible curios from the golden age of physical culture and circus arts.

Originating in the late 19th to early 20th century, Indian clubs like these were popularized in Victorian-era gymnasiums and later found fame under the big top as juggling props in travelling circuses.

The tactile wear and weathered surfaces on this set suggest a well-used history, likely in both training and performance settings.

Key features:

• Set of 3 graduated hand-turned wooden Indian clubs

• Distinctive black painted bands for grip and style

• Wonderfully aged with natural cracks and patina

• Hefty and well-balanced – still solid and sound

Usage:
Ideal for interior decorators, vintage gym or circus enthusiasts, or as sculptural curiosities. Can be displayed upright in groupings or individually to create visual impact.

Care instructions:
Wipe gently with a dry cloth. For decorative use only. Avoid exposure to damp environments.
