Perfect for your next stroll through the woods, this artisanal walking stick is designed by Winfred Ansah Okoampah in Ghana. He works with local artisans, who hand-carve the wavy shape of this stick from a single piece of sese wood that is given a black finish. Accents of embossed aluminum decorate this walking stick, which features the hand-carved image of a lion just below the handle.
You can find our wood walking stick 'Strolling Lion' by Winfred Ansah Okoampah in accessories categories such as Animal Themed Walking Sticks and Wood Walking Sticks. Enjoy exploring these sections for other Novica treasures.
