History of walking canes

Canes were predominantly used by men and as a means of support, but considerably rather as a walking accessory. The promenader grabbed the handle loosely and swung it in the rhythm of his steps. Walking sticks have existed since ancient times, when they were merely suitable branches found on the ground or broken off trees. In the early Middle Ages, canes were increasingly distributed, when their function as tools and weapons led to an increase in their popularity. Sophisticated society members and certain professionals had more elaborate canes. Especially during the 17th and 18th century, walking canes served as a symbol of social status and were often quite luxuriously crafted. Since the 19th century, the accessory also became common and fashionable in the middle classes: a cane was chosen according to how it would match with the user’s clothing. By the time of the Industrial Revolution in Europe, a so-called ‘system canes’ could conceal a variety of functions. These were often patented and examples may include both swords and firearm weapons, cigarette lighters, small mirrors, snuff boxes, whiskey bottles and glasses, musical instruments, medical equipment and many more. Since the mid-20th century, walking sticks are less widely-spread, but, due to their extensive history and great variety, they have become a popular collector's item. (cbo)
