    A very fine late 19th-century animal-themed cane—likely French—featuring a remarkable pommel carved in the round to depict the head of a mastiff with its mouth open. The pommel displays highly expressive carving with intricate detail, including visible teeth and inset eyes. It is mounted on a bamboo shaft with a beautiful, aged patina. Total length: 86 cm. Period: late 19th century (circa 1880–1900). Shaft: bamboo. Pommel: antique white material with an ivory-like appearance (not formally appraised). A fine, rare, and decorative collector's item that will appeal to enthusiasts of antique canes and animal sculpture. Condition: antique, showing signs of use and aging consistent with the object's age. Please refer to the photographs. No certificate provided.
