Item Details
Description
A lovely blue enamel ball cane with guilloche. The royal blue enamel ball handle is 1 3/4" high and 1 1/4" in diameter. Swirls of decorative guilloche are visible under the enamel and an angled line of dozens of rose cut diamonds are inset into the ball. Two rings of vermeil silver frame the stem portion and there are tiny unreadable hallmarks, perhaps Austrian or French. The combination of blue enamel and sparkling diamonds produce a very pleasant effect. The handle can be unscrewed from a threaded brass mount for security. The shaft is blackened dark hardwood that ends with a 1" horn ferrule. The overall length is 35 3/4" and the condition is very good, with a minor loss of black finish above the ferrule. It is ca 1890, and it is a very nice decorative example highlighted with diamonds, from the fine collection of the late Philip Hampton. Estimate: $6000-$8000.
