An Edwardian antique fashion cane dating to circa 1900–1910, with a dark hardwood shaft and a silver-mounted T-shaped handle engraved with M. E. Lambert, Deanhill, West Dean, 1907, height 86 cm, United Kingdom, in good condition with patina.
Description from the seller
An elegant Edwardian fashion cane with a silver-mounted T-shaped handle, engraved "M. E. Lambert, Deanhill, West Dean, 1907."
The inscription most likely records the original owner and residence rather than the maker. Deanhill was likely the name of a private house or estate in West Dean, West Sussex, England, a historic village associated with the West Dean Estate.
The cane features a silver-mounted handle of clean Edwardian design and a slender dark hardwood shaft, characteristic of fashionable gentleman's canes of the period. The shaft incorporates two finely cut longitudinal grooves, an understated decorative detail that enhances its refined appearance. Its slim proportions, elegant design and personal inscription make it a fine example of an Edwardian fashion cane intended as a stylish accessory rather than a heavy walking stick. Length: 86 cm.
Good antique condition with age-related wear, surface scratches and an attractive patina. The silver-mounted handle, engraved "M. E. Lambert, Deanhill, West Dean, 1907," shows light wear consistent with age and remains firmly attached. The slender hardwood shaft is straight and structurally sound, retaining its original decorative longitudinal grooves. The ferrule is no longer present. Please study the photographs carefully, as they form an integral part of the description.
