Item Details
Description
76. Automated Reptile Head Cane-Ca. 1900-Fruitwood handle naturalistically carved in the shape of a reptile head with two inset glass eyes. The lower jaw is hinged and can be articulated with the lever under the chin. Once depressed, the reptile opens his mouth to show a red tongue framed by a row of sharp teeth. If the lever is suddenly dropped, it produces a penetrating rattle-like noise. Ebony shaft with a metal collar and a horn ferrule. Be it a glove holder cane or a come-on wink toy of a Don Juan who wanted to catch the attention of a lady and flirt discreetly, this cane is surely a one-of-a-kind item and in perfectly working condition. -H. 2 ½” x 3, O.L. 37 ¾“
