    I found these at a estate sale yesterday - the seller said they were from Brazil but that was all he knew about them.
    The bows have a nice weaving around them. The smaller arrow has a split like someone would tie a arrow head or something to it?
    Can anyone tell me anything about these?
    Thank you!

    Yes, they are vintage (maybe 40's) Brazilian indigenous tribal bows, with nice decorative pattern. I believe the other ones are arrows, typically fitted with bone/stone tips, hence the split at the end.
