This elegant walking cane features a Hainan rosewood handle. This wood is the most expensive wood in the entire world, even bead sized pieces of Hainan rosewood can sell for hundreds of dollars - it is quite precious. It’s amazing colors and beautiful grain brought high demand for this timber for centuries leading the species to near extinction. Hainan rosewood was the wood of choice of the Chinese emperor's furniture for several dynasties. Such pieces only exist in museums today. It is quite exciting to be able to offer this wood in my canes. The divider is a much more obscure, but equally unobtainable wood called "purple acacia" from deep within the Australian outback, the "Tree" is little more than a desert shrub. The shaft is African mahogany. All of these woods have lovely chatoyancy. A very pretty cane, functional for daily use, lighter in weight. Total length measures 38" and can be shortened to fit.
