Da' Bears! Cane

This cane was made for a Chicago Bear's super-fan using a naturally shaped cane. I carved in the bear head, the letters, and added in important player's numbers on the back of the cane. Truly a one-of-a-kind.

I retired from the USAF after 28 years and now I make canes, walking sticks, jewelry and art pieces full time. The Quotable Walking Stick is a concept that I started. I find rare, unusual, and/or antique items to make into walking stick handles. Then I find an appropriate quote from literature, movies, music or elsewhere that I feel compliments the user.
Quotes have always been an important part of my life. It is comforting to know that others we admire think along the same lines as we do. I hope you will find one that speaks to you.

    Michael was great to work with. He always asked me about something before going ahead with it and always listened to all my ideas. He was especially good about helping me figure out my budget. Great experience. Oh and the staff was killer!!

    My father-in-law's birthday was fastly approaching and I felt as if I couldn't come up with gift idea that was equally beautiful and useful. Until I stumbled upon Micheal's work. I got lucky! Not only is his work truly stunning, you have the option to pick a "quote" that has meaning to you or to whomever is receiving the gift. How thoughtful is that?! I knew I finally found the perfect gift. Michael was very responsive and timely and just an overall joy to work with.
