Lot of four canes; Spain, first third of the twentieth century. Wood, gilded brass and resins. They show faults and wear. Measurements: 87 x 8 x 1,5 cm; 81 x 2,5 x 1 cm. This set of four canes shows a great variety of types of canes, all of them are of sober character, but nevertheless each one presents an independent and differentiated design from the others. The cane is not only a functional complement but also a protocol complement that denotes authority or command over a group or identity group in the person who carries it. Its historical antecedents date back to the first civilizations. They show faults and wear.
