@ rockandrollrods, the canes are so thin so I think they are really of no support - or maybe just moral support

Oh they're for looks only, I do know that. But if one has a need for a cane, might as well make it a stylish collectible!
Take every price I say with a grain of salt...

@ KC - The site you recommended were very friendly but they do "hands on" evaluations only.

I want to thank all of you who commented on the figures!

I love old canes.  My mother collects canes, and uses many of them.  However, agree with an early poster- they have to be comfortable!  Many are just for "looks" and remind me of swagger sticks or batons- more to be carried and used to point with.

Here's one like yours with a lion on top: http://www.antiquewalkingcane.com/beasts/antique-walking-canes-with-the-king-of-beasts-the-lion

I must come back and say that you can try and look for pewter character walking canes.   When I keep looking at these they look pewter!
