Something birdy, raven or hawk (go ahead @corvidae crow lady fingersay it) done in a stylized manner; carved to fit both left and right hands because I’m ambidextrous.
Carved spiral down the length, maybe/maybe not (time issue)
Inlay of copper in a spiral down the length, maybe/maybe not (time issue)
Addition of end cap to the tip
Quartz sphere inlay in the top, maybe/maybe not
Original walking stick design idea included an inlay of a quartz sphere, one inch in diameter in the top. It took me months to find the right sized quartz sphere that is clear and almost flawless, meaning almost free of internal inclusions. This same sphere has already shown up in other photos.
