Mammals

Mammal sticks hand carved to your specification. Mammals are a nice change to carve from the birds, If I have any free time I like to carve something I haven’t attempted before.

Mammal sticks – Personalisation
Your stick can be personalised in many ways. Using a pyrograph machine your name or initials can be burnt on to the stick head. Alternatively the brass collar can be engraved ( This must be done at time of ordering). See examples here https://www.countrysticks.co.uk/personalisation/
Brass Collar
Each carved walking stick head is mounted on a brass collar which can be engraved at an additional cost of £20.  This must be requested on ordering. The collar can not be engraved once the walking stick is complete.
Length
The sticks are an approximate length of 53 inches from the ferrule to the top of the head.    Please specify when placing an order if you require a specific length.
Shank
The walking stick heads are mounted mainly on straightened hazel shanks but I can mount them on chestnut or ash as to your preference.  They are all  finished off with a brass Ferrule.

I hand carve animal sticks and sculptures using a variety of hard and soft woods.  The head of the walking stick  is carved from a block of wood.  It is then painted or burnt using a pyrograph machine to get the fine details.  I then mount the stick on to a brass collar and hazel shank.  The final procedure is to lacquer the stick.

All my walking sticks are made to a high standard using good strong quality wood, however  they are for stabilisation purposes only and should not be relied upon as a medical aid.
