Carrying a cane is as old as mankind. Does this habit originate from
a desire for power, a need for defence, the desire to lean on something,
or just simply to be elegant?
Throughout the ages, the cane has been used, for a number
of reasons which could be all of the above. But as these usages, were
always of
a noble or glorious nature, we believe that carrying a cane, has been
mostly a matter of prestige: above all, it is a manifestation of our
will, of our personality, a way to “make a statement”, as
we would say today.
