This vintage long-handled shoe horn features a carved elephant head handle, with detailed ears, eyes, and trunk. The natural, light-coloured elephant head complements the design. The shaft is crafted from wood, styled to resemble segmented bamboo, providing a natural look and comfortable grip. A small metal ferrule connects the wooden shaft to the smooth scoop, made from a bone-like material, for putting on shoes. The shoe horn is in good vintage condition, showing minor signs of age and use consistent with its history, including a developed patina on the wood. This functional and decorative shoe horn is suitable for an entryway, bedroom, or dressing area, offering practicality with a classic safari-inspired style.
Damaged at end.
