Perhaps nothing quite encapsulates the quintessence of a gentleman's accessory quite so well as a sword stick. This particular design, made to order for an undisclosed Head of State demonstrates Genta's typical extravagance; its gold pommel in the form of a horse, set with diamonds and incorporating a timepiece. An exuberant tribute to a more gilded age.
