This unique walking stick was hand-carved by a French soldier during the early years of the Second World War. Coiling around the shaft is a finely carved snake, a powerful symbol often associated with vigilance, danger, and survival. The cane is further inscribed with the name “Suzanne”- possibly referring to a loved one – and the dates 1939–1940, anchoring the piece firmly in its historical context.
To escape the relentless stress and monotony of wartime life, soldiers often turned to creativity, repurposing available materials into what is now known as trench art. These deeply personal objects were made using limited tools and resources, resulting in raw, expressive works that reflect both hardship and resilience. Each piece tells a human story shaped by uncertainty, longing, and endurance.
This cane carries a tangible sense of history and would make a striking centerpiece in any World War II or military collection.
After more than 80 years, the cane remains in good condition and shows only minor signs of use. Over time, it has developed a beautiful natural patina that enhances its character and authenticity. The surface has been treated with antique wax, providing a protective layer and a subtle, soft sheen.
