- Lot Description
North America, United States, ca. early to mid-20th century CE. A unique walking cane hand-whittled from wood with birds, deer heads, and anthropomorphic figures carved in relief across the surface. The lower tip has a brass ring to strengthen the wood. The upper neck under the curved handle is signed "GM," presumably the maker. Two antlered deer heads are placed near the initials, above the 6 figures. Each person is dressed in dapper garb consisting of top hats, possibly coattails, and one even holds a cane. The two birds are endearing: gangly herons or cranes with long legs and beaks. This is a wonderful piece of Americana folk art. The wood has developed a lovely patina and smooth surface from age and use. Size: 31" L x 1" W (78.7 cm x 2.5 cm)
