Figural Cane Handle

This is a rare cane handle made by KPM around 1780. It is of a veiled lady’s head with the body making the shape of the handle. The body has a raised design that is highlighted in puce and gold and the rest is decorated with flower arrangements and small flowers. The neat thing is that the top part of the original cane is still attached to it. Carved with a nice design. There is a metal sleeve holding the wood and the porcelain together and it is still very tight and doesn’t budge. The piece is in perfect condition with a tiny bit of enamel wear to the high points of the veil. The porcelain part is 3 inches (7.5cm) tall, 4.5 inches (11.5cm) long and 1.25 inches (3.1cm) wide. No mark can be seen but it is certainly made by KPM.
