An English walking-stick, 19th century. The handle carved from a single piece of layered agate, on its top a finely worked blackamoor's head. Ferrule of 9-carat rose-gold with gold hallmarks and maker's marks (worn). Shaft of Malacca wood, the tip made of horn. Length 94 cm. Excellent example of the highest workmanship, which reveals it's entire beauty only under a magnifying glass. historic, historical, 19th century, handicrafts, handcraft, craft, object, objects, stills, clipping, clippings, cut out, cut-out, cut-outs, fine arts, art, artful, Additional-Rights-Clearences-Not Available
