EARLY 20C CARVED LIGNUM VITAE HORSEHEAD CANE

This sturdy early twentieth century walking stick is extremely well carved from dense lignum vitae to form the figure of a horse's head with arching neck and flowing forelock and mane. Especially good carousel horse-like details are the carved tongue and eyes. The shaft is 1-2/4 inches thick and tapers to 7/8 inches terminating in a metal tip. The handle is 6 inches long. Overall length is 35-3/4 inches. This skillfully carved walking stick is fully functional should you need a cane to steady you. It's doubly good if you are a horse lover.
