A 19thc Walking Cane with Carved Boot Handle

19th century

Sold by The Antique Partnership

Description

This is an unusual and interesting walking cane which I believe to be original and correct. The boot carved handle is extremely similar to the design and patina found on similarly shaped snuff boxes from the Georgian period.The wood is dark and of a lovely colour..I think mahogany though it may be the same wood as the shaft as the patina of the handle runs into part of the shaft. The shaft is of a hardwood which I can't identify and it has no ferrule to the tip and no trace of ever having had one.The cane is strong and very useable and tactile.

91.5 cms long. The boot handle where one would hold it in the hand is 9.5 cms.

Payment accepted by Bank transfer,Paypal,Cheque or by cash/creditcard if collected.
