Wood Walking Staffs
Marv Beloff -
sculptor
I'm a sculptor who ordinarily creates for the
moment. I have carved ten different walking staffs
and use them to ease a sensitive hip. They are
primarily made from North Carolina yellow pine. The wood is
very hard and is often used for wood floors. It is my wood of
choice as it has the most wonderfully interesting grain structure and
is strong enough for use as a hiking staff. Dubbed
the "Moses" staff by some friends, they are 53" high and sport a crutch
rubber bottom cap. For pictures see staff photo gallery. Each will be
slightly different as they are hand made. Travel experiences
with the staffs, such as a five day sail out of New Orleans on the
Mississippi Queen, were quite remarkable. It was
almost embarrassing, to have been stopped so often, by people asking
about my staff. Although, I imagine they are unique enough to
attract a large number of people. Each staff takes about a
week to create.
Price = $250.00,
includes postage and handling.
