Description from the seller
Lot of 4 Cane Handles - Animal and Figurative Theme - Bronze, Wood and Carved Resin - 20th Century
Lot Description
Magnificent set of four decorative grips for collectible canes, each with a distinctive style and material. This lot is ideal for both restorers of antique canes and collectors of display-case items.
Parts details:
Bronze Horsehead: A robust bronze handle cast with a natural gold patina. It features a stylized design with details in the ears and eyes. Threaded base ready for mounting.
Bust of a Gentleman with Pipe (Wood): A detailed wood carving depicting a man with a black bowler hat and a pipe in his mouth. The workmanship on the beard and facial features stands out.
Elephant Head (Ivory Style): A high-density resin piece or carved composite with a finish that mimics aged ivory. Includes meticulous details in the wrinkles of the trunk and ears. Retains the original threaded mounting stud.
Parrot Head / Psittacine Bird: An ergonomic handle carved with great detail in the plumage and an eye inlaid for contrast. Aged finish that highlights the texture of the feathers.
Condition of conservation
Condition: Generally good, with normal signs of use and age (natural patina).
Observations: The elephant head shows some superficial cracks due to the passage of time that give it character (see photos). The bird head has a small notch at the top of the eye, barely noticeable.
It is recommended to carefully review the photos for an accurate assessment of the condition of the parts.
