Bloomington, MN
$$ Valued at over $250.. Antique German Alpine Walking Stick (Alpen Stock) with 20 original Hiking Medallions, called Stocknageln (stick nails).Avid hikers would adorn their treasured staffs with small trinkets or medallions depicting “the conquered” territory, its features, or inhabitants. The collecting of hiking staff medallions (or stocknagels) is a long-standing European tradition that began in the Alps region of Europe back in the 1800’s. The badges, called stocknagels, attached to the canes, which is a right of passage to depict the many mountain visits a long time ago. Walking sticks and canes from Germany, Austria, and Italy date from 1900-1945.
Every mountain they climbed, every place they visited by foot, the people used to buy a badge or stocknagel from the environment and the villagers attached the badge on the cane with a small hammer and two small nails. It was a very serious matter, and a great honor. Every badge offers a decorative symbol, from German Forests, the Black Forest, Schwarzwald, the Alps, Tyrole, Bayern, Italy. And brings you a piece of history! It is approximately 32 1/2" tall.
