About the Item

Antique Carved Wood Cane – Fantastical Handle Featuring a Dragon, Salamander, and Rabbit Head This striking hand-carved wooden walking stick is a true piece of folk art imagination, likely dating from the late 19th to early 20th century. The cane’s handle is sculpted in an elaborate and symbolic fantastical bestiary: a dragon’s head with an open mouth and inlaid eyes, crowned by a salamander resting atop its skull, and terminating in a stylized rabbit head at the rear of the grip. Material: Hand-carved wood with a warm, honeyed patina Design Details: Dragon: Fierce expression with carved teeth, engraved scales, and alert gaze—representing power, protection, and myth. Salamander: Perched atop the dragon’s head, this creature is often a symbol of transformation, fire, and rebirth. Rabbit Head: Forming the end of the handle, an unexpected and whimsical detail that adds balance and mystery to the composition. Shaft: Gnarled, naturally contoured wood, preserving the raw character of the original branch Ferrule: Original brass tip for stability and durability Dimensions: length 97 cm, length handle 20 cm Highlights Unique piece with a rich mythological and symbolic narrative Excellent folk craftsmanship with sculptural value Well-preserved, with minor wear consistent with age and use
