Antique Art Nouveau Cane Circa 1900 – Solid Silver 800 Knob/Grip with Mistletoe Motif & Palm Stem

Very beautiful play of light. Hallmark:

Full Parisian master-silversmith mark, inscribed in a rectangular compartmental cartouche on two lines: top line EU / EUG (for Eugène) and bottom line LRF / L.B.F. Fût (Handle)

: Made from noble exotic black palm wood, sought after for its bold, graphic, two-tone longitudinal fibers.
Ferrule: Present at the base in original bronze.
Condition: Magnificent used state, “as is.” The silver retains its superb original black patina in the recesses, which enhances the palm motif. Slight, normal wear marks on the top of the grip attest to its authenticity.

No aggressive modern restorations.
