Swordfish Rostrum, 72 Cm, On Wooden Stand. Naturalia, Wunderkammer

This impressive swordfish rostrum, measuring 72 cm in length, 7 cm in width, and 7 cm in depth, originates from Indonesia and is mounted on a custom-crafted wooden stand. 
Carefully preserved and stabilized with resin, this unique piece highlights the natural elegance and strength of the swordfish’s distinctive weapon.

For centuries, the swordfish (Xiphias gladius) has been admired for its agility and speed, with its sharp, elongated bill used to slash through schools of fish. In many coastal cultures, particularly in Indonesia and the Pacific Islands, these rostra were traditionally repurposed into weapons, tools, and ritual objects, embodying both martial skill and deep respect for the sea.

This mounted rostrum makes for a stunning display, ideal for collectors of marine curiosities, nautical decor, and natural history artifacts.
