The carving is highly expressive, with engraved fur details and a dynamic, slightly ferocious expression that gives the piece a vivid presence.\nThe mouth is open to reveal pointed teeth, likely made of bone, with the tongue and palate painted in red for added realism. Glass eyes further enhance the lifelike quality, creating an eye-catching and characterful object.\nThe shaft is made of wood and shows a vertical split consistent with age, which does not detract from its overall solidity and charm. A metal collar neatly joins the handle to the shaft. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe cane has lost its original metal ferrule at the tip, and a few small front teeth are missing, though this is barely noticeable.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eA fine example of Black Forest craftsmanship, combining naturalistic detail with a touch of theatricality, making it both a functional cane and a decorative collector’s piece. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCondition and patina consistent with age.\u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 35½\" long x 2¼\" wide    \u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 90cm long x 6cm wide  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chez Pluie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53341645504850,"sku":"24436","price":995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1166\/6698\/files\/DSC01497_a95fdf1f-d2e6-4317-a5cc-353c36c8dc06.jpg?v=1777970280","url":"https:\/\/www.chezpluie.com\/products\/black-forest-carved-wooden-cane-w-wolf-head-handle-c-1900-351-2","provider":"Chez Pluie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
