<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 299003, member: 5833"]Thinking it's a bit stubby for a parasol handle, so starting to incline to a walking stick head. Googling 'fez' images shows me some that are more drum shaped, others more like thimbles. Carver may have taken some artistic license in order to make a more comfortable surface for the palm to rest on, or have been working to a stereotypical notion of a 'moor'. How about this one?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]97595[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
