Dayak Axe Stone with Handwoven Rattan Fitting

Dimensions: H – 19 × 6 × 4 cm
Weight: 478 g

This Dayak axe stone is a beautifully shaped greenstone tool highly regarded in the indigenous cultures of Borneo. Traditionally believed to be sacred stones formed by lightning strikes, these objects were valued as protective talismans, symbols of good fortune, and important heirloom items within Dayak households.

The stone features a smooth, elongated form with a rounded head and a gently tapering body. Its deep green coloration with natural mineral speckling reflects careful polishing and long-term handling.

Accompanying the stone is a finely woven rattan fitting, crafted in a striking black-and-natural geometric pattern typical of Dayak basketry. The set includes a snug main sheath and a matching slip-on cover, both made to protect, store, and present the stone with cultural authenticity.
