Here is a marvelous desert ironwood and ebony walking cane. The handle has a rich, chatoyant golden color intermixed with chocolate browns, all with a gorgeous figured grain. Desert ironwood is dense, durable, chatoyant, colorful, and in this example its figured - can wood get better? Sonoran Desert Ironwood has been protected for decades now, conservationists have identified the species as a vital cornerstone of its ecosystem. The tree itself is stunted, small, and scraggly, see the last image for an example of the ironwood tree in its native range. Desert ironwood is my personal favorite wood. The shaft is macassar ebony, also a dense and durable wood, highly regarded world wide. There is one small area closer to the bottom of that shaft that is a warm dark brown otherwise its almost totally dark, chocolate brown. This piece is perfect for someone looking for a piece that’s very stable and substantial feeling, yet not chunky and unrefined. Total length measures 38” and can be shortened to fit.
