Antique Late 19thC End of Day Root Beer Twisted Blown Glass Walking Stick Parade Cane In the late 19thC glassmakers ended their work day creating a variety of objects from the leftover materials used for making other glasswares. Master craftsmen were allowed to "play" with glass on their own time and create objects for their on use, enjoyment or to improve their skills. These "end of the day" creations demonstrated their great skill and control over molten glass. Given their fragile nature canes were rarely used for walking although they were occasionally used ceremonially in parades. Glass canese were rarely documented to their maker. We recently acquired a nice collection of these blown glass walking stick parade canes that we will be listing. These are from the same collection that we sold on Ebay a month ago. Up for bids is this antique late 19thC End of the Day Root Beer Twisted blown glass walking stick parade cane. The color of glass is root beer brown. The cane measures 33 1/2" high and is 1" at it's widest and the bottom is 3/8". The cane is shaped in a spiral twist that runs down to the bottom. The root beer brown color glass is beautiful. Condition is very, very good with a very tiny thin chip on the bottom tip that does not detract from the cane at all. Please see our other glass canes we are listing. How interesting
