Item Details
Description
Group of twelve carved wooden canes and walking sticks including one with a hatchet grip and one with a hidden compartment that opens to reveal a glass vial.

The vial reads: "This bottle contains a concentrated extract of liquid joy. Guaranteed to cure cold feet, bald head, that tired feeling and failing nerves. Prevents falling in love, political ambition or other forms of insanity. Warranted to restore lost reputations, grow hair on a billiard ball and produce an uncontrollable desire to ride in a Banner Buggy."

Provenance: From the Estate of Horst Rechelbacher, Osceola, Wisconsin.

Horst Rechelbacher, the founder of Aveda and Intelligent Nutrients, was a pioneer in the field of safe and eco-friendly cosmetics. The same curiosity that led him to explore ways to improve the beauty industry led him to travel the world, collecting rare and beautiful objects as he went. This sale features selections from that lifetime of eclectic and inspired collecting, including furniture by Carlo Bugatti, Gabriel Viardot, and Josef Hoffman; artworks by artists ranging from Old Masters to Salvador Dali to Arman; an impressive collection of Indian sculptures; and much more. Be sure to explore our timed-only online auction of other fascinating objects from this collection that will be posted in mid-August.

Length ranges from 34 1/4 in to 55 in.
