This cane is modern in style and ancient in material - it has a Ukrainian Bog Oak handle and shaft. This wood is approximately 5,000-7,000 years old! Wood like this is called "sinker" wood: an oak tree lives a typical life span but when it dies and falls it is covered in peat moss or falls into a bog, both of which create an oxygen deprived environment that perfectly preserves the wood. But the oak does absorb minerals from its surroundings and the result after thousands of years is a dark color. This bog oak is a dark warm grey. Ancient wood like this is very rare and has a great story. The divider area has several solid layers of brass set at opposing angles forming a unique look. Medium weight cane that could be used by most anyone, daily use appropriate. Total length measures 38" and can be shortened to fit.
