During the 19th and 20th centuries, canes reached their pinnacle of popularity, becoming a must have accessory for those wishing to publicly proclaim their social and economic status. This cane is quite unique in that it shows an earlier style of art than when it was likely made. The T-shaped antique ivory grip of this cane has been expertly relief carved in the form of a snarling wolf's head, very much in the style of some depicted in medieval chronicles. The grip is joined to the shaft with a nickeled band. The shaft is ebonized and untipped. It measures 35 inches overall.

Fine, the grip showing an attractively aged appearance with some hairline age cracks scattered throughout. The nickeled band is bright. The shaft is very good with an attractive rough-hewn appearance and retaining most of the ebonized finish.
