Lot 0482: CHINESE SWORD CANE WITH DRAGON HEAD HANDEL

41 reviews

A vintage walking cane with a concealed blade is also referred to as a sword cane. Presumably of the Chinese origin. The head of the cane is made of metal and modeled as a dragon head with an open mouth, and the dagger can be easily removed by unscrewing it from the black wooden shaft. The cane also has a rubber foot or ferrule at the bottom. In the 18th century the cane replaced the sword as an essential part of every gentlemans look.
