A first rate and early French dress cane entirely fashioned of tortoiseshell with a piqué-brodé knob and plain shaft with gold fittings. Decorated with miniscule gold pin-heads, the three quarter of an inch high knob’s surface looks like micro lace and has its silky feel. The plain and elegantly tapering, solid tortoiseshell shaft, reflecting a superb, mottled warm color in a sublime translucency, is emphasized by a magnificently chased yellow gold collar with eyelets and swiveling bar .
Art Nouveau Dress Cane-Ca. 1890-Large silver crook handle hand chased and engraved with a reclining nude, well streaked rosewood shaft and a horn ferrule. Powerful sensual symbolism is apparent here with a woman in a flowering wrap as almost symbolic, mythical creature with spiritual undertones. An “800” hallmark on the handle’s rim hints to a German origin.
