This antique walking stick features an unusual style - above the collar is narrower than below, making the stick easier to hold. 

The stick has a crook handle furnished with a tested silver end & collar, with collar embossed with repousse leaf detailing and the end featuring the initials of the original owner: 
C.E.J  

Malacca shaft with an original large copper ferrule. 

This style of stick was a signature of the 16th century and can be seen on page 103 of Canes Through The Ages by Francis H. Monek. 

An attractive item, perfect for a collector or use.
