Description from the seller
A George V Silver-Mounted Crook-Handled Walking Stick, London, 1920, by J. Howell & Co. Ltd
An elegant George V walking stick, the curved hardwood handle displaying attractive natural figuring in rich reddish-brown and dark tones, terminating in a sterling silver mount decorated with a series of raised oval bosses and a shaped, scalloped upper edge.
The silver mount is fully hallmarked for London, 1920, with the maker's mark of J. Howell & Co. Ltd.
The crook-shaped handle continues into a slender, tapering wooden shaft, retaining its warm colour and distinctive grain. The stick is finished with a pale horn ferrule.
A refined example of an early 20th-century English gentleman's walking stick, combining an understated form with distinctive silver detailing.
