Description from the seller

Elegant antique walking cane in Milord style with a silver handle and a dark, varnished rosewood shaft, typical of high-end accessories of the era.

The handle, either flattened or rounded in plate fineness .800.

This antique walking cane dates to the late 19th or early 20th century (Victorian or Edwardian era). It is a piece from between 1890 and 1920.

The silver handle of the cane features contrast marks or hallmarks indicating European origin, with a high likelihood of originating from Germany or Central European regions.
