Ornate Silver Topped L-shape Handled Malacca Walking Stick

This is a beautiful statement walking cane with an ornate silver handle decorated with scrolls and acanthus style detail. The tip of the handle has significant dents where has presumably be used to knock on doors but otherwise in great condition. The hallmarks are very worn but its just possible to make out part of the maker initials, can't make out the date unfortunately. The malacca wood has the darkened patina of many years use and its brass finial is missing.
