A SCOTSMAN Walking Stick Handle carved in solid British STAINED SYCAMORE

HAND MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN USING ONLY NATIVE BRITISH HARDWOODS

Offered in this sale is a completed walking stick/cane handle carved from solid hardwood depicting the head of a Scotsman wearing an highland bonnet . The handle was cut from a piece of seasoned sycamore with the grain running from top to bottom to give maximum strength, this has been stained to try an give it a cense of age . It has then been given several coats of varnish.

The base has a 8 mm diameter hole that was used as a fixing point during carving/finishing. The base is squared 90 degrees to the screw hole and is ready for fitting to a shaft of your choice. If you like this handle but would like it to fit a different sized shaft just let me know and I will carve a similar one but to fit the shaft of your choice.

Dimensions are approximately:

Length - Tip of nose to back 60 mm, or approximately 2.3 inch

Height - Top of head to point of marriage 94 mm or approximately 3.7 inch. This includes a 13 mm section for collar to cover joint between both sections..

Width of handle at the widest point is 52 mm, or approximately 2 inch; this is ready to fit to a shaft 26mm or approximately 1 inch in diameter at the point of marriage.

The metal spike and coins are not included they are just there to hold the work in place and to give you a sense of scale.

The copper coin is a British 2p and the silver coin is a USA half dollar and the yellow coin a 20cent euro coin.

Each handle is individually carved and finished by myself here in Great Britain from native hardwoods. I do not make any handles using resin. I will use the basic design again but no other handle will ever be the same as this one. Added to the fact that timber is a natural product and no two pieces of wood will ever be the same, each handle is therefore unique.

**Please remember the colour may vary slightly due to variations in monitor settings**
