ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
The ivory version features a hand polished trophy sized warthog tusk that has a shallow, flat cut made along the side of the tusk. This flat surface is them adorned with a very detailed scrimshaw “picture” depicting all of the African “Big Five”. The shaft features a very beautiful and substantial piece of exotic African Hardwood that darkens with age... This is a beautiful piece that exhibits excellent workmanship and the scrimshaw is very nicely executed.
We selected three of Africa’s most striking exotic woods for their unique visual characteristics, color and character. The order of the descriptions below follows the order shown in the photo: i.e. Leadwood is the top.
Leadwood-a very dense, dark brown wood with black striping and interesting graining that sinks in water…hence the name.
Rhodesian Teak- recognized worldwide as one of the most beautiful and durable exotic woods. A light toned, red wood that can have black stripes running through it for a stunning look. The same wood they used to lay the railroad from Cape Town to Salisbury (Harrare) over 100 years ago.
Tambooti - a light brown wood that usually features dark and light striping. A very attractive, dense wood that has a cedar type scent when freshly cut.

Please note that all models of our Ivory Canes are for display purposes only and are not for use by individuals who have a medical, degenerative or other condition that requires the use of a cane. While very durable, ivory is brittle and can snap off if used in a load bearing application. For this reason, do not lean on any of the ivory canes or use them for support while walking.
