Silver and Ivory Tiger Walking stick. Germany ca. 1900 


The roar of regal and predatory magnificence is what makes the tiger a great cat. Its prestige is not of swiftness but strength and lithe elegance, lusty sensuality and sumptuous pelage. They have inspired everything from warrior societies and shamanic magic to some of our oldest, most commanding images of majestic divinity.

2022 will be the year of the Tiger in the Chinese horoscope !
