About the Item
Early 20th century walking cane
We are proud to offer a highly unusual walking cane made from aged bamboo. This unique and artistic object has naturally taken the form of a bird. The creator of this fascinating object obviously saw the likeness of a bird’s head in this object and decided to make it into a functional walking cane. The cane is one solid piece of Bamboo and has not been altered to take this form, the eyes on the face are amazingly natural stumps in the bamboo itself. We have mounted this object as its more a sculptural piece of folk art.
