A walking cane for the slightly risque gentleman. This cane is in ebony and brass, and features a cast brass handle moulded for the gentleman's delectation in the comely figure of Venus. What better companion for the man of Mars?

A sword for the ladies
By M on Friday 31 December 2010, 12:46 - Ladieswear
It seems that the Regency Court Sword I introduced recently has been drawing as much attention from the ladies as it has from the men, if not more. It is for that reason that I now offer a ladies version. It is to be found in the back window, near the ladies shoes. Note that the rather more mobile hips of the gentler sex may cause a bit more mesh interpenetration during walking.

A Regency-style court sword
By M on Tuesday 28 December 2010, 13:09 - Regency
It was customary for gentlemen, both military and civilian, to carry swords in the 18th century. The swords had become ceremonial in purpose, were light and intended to decorate rather than to defend. This is a design based very closely on court swords of the period, with a small coquille and very thin blade. It is supported by straps attached to a belt (not rendered, as it could interfere with clothing) which would be hidden under a waistcoat.
