Description from the seller

This remarkable antique walking stick from the first half of the 20th century is a powerful and elegant object with a pronounced character. The handle is made from the horn of a gemsbok, carefully shaped into an elegant curved grip with a beautiful, natural sheen and subtle grain structure.

The wooden handle has developed a warm patina over the years, with visible signs of use that emphasize its authentic and historical character.

At the height of the handle, the cane is finished with a decorative metal fitting, giving the whole a refined and stately appearance. At the bottom end, the walking cane is equipped with a metal point, typical of quality canes from this period.
With a total length of 92 cm, this walking cane has a slender and elegant proportion.

Originally, this type of cane was not only a functional aid, but also a status and style attribute, carried by gentlemen with an eye for craftsmanship and detail.

A rare and decorative piece, ideal for the collector of antique walking sticks, lovers of natural materials such as horn, or as a striking accent in a classic, country, or eclectic interior. A walking cane with history, presence, and timeless charm.
