Hi Atlantia,
The head seems to be made from a type of heavy hardwood. So you think its a walking cane. Dam fooled again.

Thanks

I think the bone segments are from tuna burbles but I may be wrong.

Hi Atlantia,
Do you mean swagger stick?
Thanks
Darren

Hi Darren,

Is the length across the curve or around it?
In either event it's still within the length range for a cane and rather long for a swagger stick.

Hi Atlantia,
Yes the length is across the curve.
Thanks
Darren

It's probable that the curve is the result of use rather than design, so it would have been a few cm longer originally.

Googling "shark vertebrae" and "tuna vertebrae" and looking at the images, I think the original attribution was correct, these are shark vertebrae.
