This ancient cane has a handle made out of rib bone from an extinct mammal, the Steller's Sea Cow. The Steller's Sea Cow went extinct in the late 1700's due to over hunting just a few decades after the animal was first discovered by western explorers. The bone used in this cane was discovered by the native Inuit people on St. Lawrence island in the Bering Sea, it is an ancient bone that was excavated from ancient Inuit hunting grounds. The bone is at likely several thousand years old. The Steller's Sea Cow was the largest animal of its kind and the bones are denser than any other marine animal. It remains to tell the story of how fragile nature is.

The shaft is lace figured white oak, and the divider is black and white ebony with black ebony accents. Truly a one of a kind cane, even for our work. Total length measures 38" and can be shortened to fit.
