Vintage (1930's) Folk Art Hand Carved Walking Stick - Man's Head
Hand-Carved Expressive human head and the natural, knotty appearance of the shaft. Folk art walking sticks are unique, one-of-a-kind items often made by amateur or local carvers. The carving style is simple and rustic. The face features a painted red cap and painted facial details including the eyes and lips. The shaft is from a natural tree branch, with the bark texture largely intact, a common characteristic of country / rustic canes. Walking sticks have a long history of serving as both practical mobility aids and significant symbols of status, authority, and personal expression.
There is loss of paint and distress to the head.
