Bidspirit auction | Two Traditional British Country Walking
Two Traditional British Country Walking Sticks Including a Scottish Carved Horn Example - This lot comprises two traditional British country walking sticks. The first stick features a crook-style handle crafted from translucent ram's horn in shades of cream and honey. The handle terminal is intricately hand-carved with a Scottish thistle motif above a scrolled end. This handle is flush-mounted to a natural wood shaft, likely hazel or blackthorn, which retains its original bark and textured surface. The second stick is a one-piece construction made from knotted wood, characteristic of blackthorn, with a polished warm honey-coloured finish. Its handle is formed from an integral root-ball creating a crutch or derby-style grip. Neither item displays any visible hallmarks, maker's marks, or signatures.
