A beautiful rare Chinese export solid silver walking cane or umbrella handle. It is hallmarked with Chinese export marks and dates to c1890. It has been beautifully made being decorated in a blossom design. There is a small piece of paper inside but I have no idea what it says. It is in superb condition being free from dings splits distortions and repairs. It measures approx. 7.25 inches (18.6cm) long by 0.75 inch (1.8cm) across the top with the opening for a cane being approx. 1cm across and weighs 48 grams. A very interesting and stunning piece.
