An elephant represents commitment, strength, and power. The elephant attains old age and with it, wisdom and long memory. The half of this naturalist and dynamic crook-handle is ending with a silver elephant head, a pair of beautifully grown tusks framing a long, down dropping, knurled trunk, is hallmarked with silver French marks. 

This elephant measures 8 cm to the side x 6 cm high and matches perfectly with an exceptional shaft conceived of a single piece of Rosewood, curved with great skill, as it was only done in a few specialized timber factories of the 19th century, this type of work is now totally disappeared. It ends with a bimetal ferrule. The O.L. is 91 cm and shows traces of use, the condition is excellent.

This cane is very elegant, fits perfect, it is still a very wearable cane.
