FAQs

A Sunday stick is a walking cane featuring a handle crafted in the shape of a golf club head, popular in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. They were traditionally carried on Sundays when formal golfing was discouraged, allowing golfers to practise their swing motion while out for a walk.

These canes typically feature wooden shafts made from woods such as ebonised fruitwood, ash, or bamboo, paired with handles made from sterling silver, nickel, brass, or carved wood mimicking golf club putters or irons.

Authentic period examples often feature hallmarks on silver handles, correct proportions consistent with early golf club shapes, period brass or metal ferrules at the tip, and natural age-related wear on the shaft and grip.

A golfing cane can be displayed in a hallway umbrella stand, mounted in a wall display case alongside vintage sporting equipment, or placed in an office corner to add historical character to a room.

Dust the wooden shaft regularly with a soft cloth and preserve the finish with natural beeswax paste. Metal or silver handles should be gently polished with a silver polishing cloth, avoiding harsh liquid cleaners that could damage the timber junction.
