About the Item

Victorian American cane is of the straight stick like variety with a wooden shaft, probably of pine, with a sterling silver collar (handle) marked "sterling" at the base (see image). The silver top is nicely and snugly planished in place and measures 1 1/4" diameter x 1 3/4" in length. The circular wooden shaft tapers from 3/4" diameter at the top down to 5/8' diameter at the base where it meets the original 1 3/8" long ebony ferrel. The walking stick maintains it's original surface and is in completely original condition in every aspect, with no restoration of any kind. The silver top has some minor wear scratches and the wooden shaft has some normal "use" wear and has an ever so slight bow (hardly noticeable---see images). It can still be used today, or simply put on display with a nice collection of antique walking sticks. It should be noted that most 19th century walking sticks were used as fashion statements just as often as for orthopedic utility; selecting them with the same emphasis as if they were choosing a hat to wear. There was even an individual style and gait that users employed in carrying and walking with their canes. Dimensions: 1 1/4" diameter x 35 1/2" length (Collar is 1 3/4" long) Note: I am a second generation antiques dealer and have been in business for 50 years; I am also a member of several prestigious antique associations. Thus, I am well qualified to inspect and evaluate the products I offer for sale and I guarantee this to be authentic and as I have described.
