Cow horn. Size and shape dictated by the quality of the horn. Waiting for the PVA to dry.

This thread is really fascinating and informative! Thank you Freddy for identifying this as a Basque walking stick. If ever there was a distinct ethnographic group it would be the Basques, who if I am not mistaken, maintain thier unique language and culture still.
I think it is a beautiful item Tim, and it seems esoteric enough that it would have some potential as far as value.
