Antique Indian carved wood folk art walking stick

Description
Antique Indian carved wood folk art walking stick
Indian, Late 19th Century
Height 82cm, diameter 6cm
Handcrafted in late 19th century India, this remarkable folk art walking stick is a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship of independent artisans. Unlike those produced in established workshops, folk canes were uniquely designed by skilled craftsmen who expressed their creativity through intricate detailing and decorative motifs.
The handle is shaped into a smooth wooden sphere, ergonomically designed to provide a comfortable grip. Its warm, light-brown tone creates a striking contrast against the richly carved darker shaft, which features an elaborate array of floral and geometric patterns. A rare addition for folk art walking sticks, the base is reinforced with a metal ferrule, enhancing its durability while adding a refined touch.
Embodying the artistry and cultural heritage of Indian craftsmanship, this intricately decorated walking stick is a prized acquisition for collectors of folk art and antique walking sticks. - More Information
