Be wary of "genuine Polynesian masks" The Polynesians had no mask making tradition and all but one Micronesian island lack masks as well. So much for the shop owners prized Polynesian authentic masks....
If you go to google images and type in Marquesan paddle you'll find sites that take you to an image of a chief with a similar paddle.
