American Figural Cane
AMERICAN FIGURAL CANE, Enigmatic figure above a coiled rattle snake; late 19th/early 20th c., black walnut; 28 inches.
No, I wish it was and I am embarrassed to say I cannot remember the source of where i found it. because of that I was hesitant to even post it but I thought—what the heck—I can always fall on my knees and ask forgiveness. I do remember it was listed at $28,000, so I must have found it somewhere on 1st dibs. ;-)
This is exceptional! From your collection?

ReplyDeleteWow! I can name a number of dealers that would have the cajones to ask $28,000 for it....but I won't of course! Great find.
