Antique Silverplate Greyhound Dog Head Black Umbrella Oak Walking Stick Cane 38"

Description

This antique walking-stick style umbrella showcases exceptional character, highlighted by an expressive, figural silverplate cast-metal handle meticulously sculpted into the head of a hound dog, such as a greyhound or whippet. The finely detailed head features a small tongue playfully peeking from the tip of its snout, molded fur-like textures along the jaw, and a decorative buckle dog collar motif wrapping around the lower neck ring. The handle connects to a short, rich brown wooden neck section before meeting the black metal structural skeleton. The body is wrapped in a tightly furled, classic black fabric canopy secured mid-way by a matching black button-loop closure tab, tapering down to a slender, dark extended lower shaft tip.
