Kleiner Support für Altersheim

!!! Es handelt sich ausdrücklich nicht um einen Spendenaufruf !!!

Einige sehr liebe Damen aus einem Altersheim in der Schweiz würden sich über Urlaubskarten freuen, da sie selbst leider nicht mehr verreisen können.
Heute habe ich ein wirklich herzerwärmendes Instagram-Reel gesehen und möchte es gerne mit euch teilen. Solche Geschichten gehen mir sehr ans Herz 🥲

Das ist lediglich eine persönliche Bitte: Vielleicht habt ihr Lust, den älteren Damen und Herren mit einer kleinen Urlaubskarte eine Freude zu machen. Sie würden sich bestimmt sehr darüber freuen, von euren Reiseerlebnissen zu lesen.

Real or Fake Collection? Help pls

Hi everyone,
I recently came across some African tribal objects and I’m hoping someone here can help me identify them more precisely.
The collection includes:
• A pair of long wooden spears/javelins (~130–150cm) with carved handles featuring figural elements and decorative grip sections
• A long ceremonial object with an iron blade/tip and an elaborate wooden scabbard — the scabbard features multiple carved human figures stacked along its length, animal hair, bone/teeth inlays, rattan wrappings, and fiber fringes. The iron shows significant rust/oxidation consistent with age.
All materials appear natural and handmade. The wood is ebonized/blackened.
I believe the origin might be Central Africa (Congo Basin?) but I’m not certain at all.
My questions:
1. Can anyone help identify the specific tribe or region of origin?
2. Does the scabbard/figure style match any known tradition?
3. Any estimate on age or ceremonial significance?
Happy to share more photos on request. Thanks in advance!
