Ha! It's not a weapon cane so sure you'd be fine! Ha
Well it is for sale gila it reminds me of a water bird, but not sure why. Think it was probably just a generic bird carved as best they could I...
Fair point. I wasn't thinking they out sold the ones used for walking aid but most of the antique ones you find today will have survived because...
Yeah, sorry, bad use of language by me. I meant it in those terms, as a self defence stick. Do you think it could be Chinese then? What would...
From what I've read of canes from 1700 onwards they were regarded as a fashion accessory. Obviously there would have been some used for walking...
Thanks figtree
Thanks guys, that's great help. I'll have an attempt at removal, but don't want to damage it. I've looked with a uv light to see if there is any...

Thanks..This one is quite worn down, can see wood under it so I don't think it has been replaced. At least not recently!
Hi, I think this is probably the newest cane in the lot. Has plastic eyes and a rubber stopper. Not sure wood type so any help would be great....
Hi, This cane is quite unusual. Looks hand painted and possibly Indian? Just thinking with the design of the painting. Not sure the wood, it...
Hi, Here's the next cane I need help with. This has a pewter top that looks arts and crafts, so could be it's from 1900-1940ish? Again, it's a...

Hi, Thanks for getting back to me. I'd like to know the makers mark if possible as it ties it all together. Is another way of me knowing the date...
