Description
Art Nouveau silver and glass mounted walking stick
French, c. 1900
Height 91cm, diameter 2.5cm

Dating back to late 19th century France, this exceptional walking stick reflects the distinctive artistry of the Art Nouveau movement, a style renowned for its fluid lines and nature-inspired motifs.

The finely crafted handle is shaped from hand-hammered silver to create a richly textured surface. Graceful, stylised branches adorned with prominent leaves wind around the handle, with some elegantly framing the jewel-like embellishments. On either side, radiant ruby-red cabochon glass stones add a striking touch. This intricate design captures the essence of Art Nouveau, celebrating organic forms and flowing, curvilinear patterns.

The shaft crafted from ebonized wood, provides a striking contrast to the silver handle, its deep black hue enhancing the cane’s overall aesthetic appeal.

With its refined craftsmanship and nature-inspired elegance, this walking stick is a remarkable addition to any collection, particularly for those with an appreciation for Art Nouveau design.
