It looks something like this:
Except the knob/handle is well hand rubbed and has taken a beautiful patina.
I can get another for around £95, but shillelaghs are individually created and are unique. It'll never be the same. 
Susie said she'd go down to the market and ask if it had been turned in this morning, and I'm now waiting for her to call and tell me she's found it. Worry, worry, worry. |
Oof! A blackthorn shillelagh is a piece of art! I hope it finds its way back to you,

When I was walking my German shepherd I got into the habit of using the pooper scooper (a short shovel) as a walking stick. Now I use a trekking pole. No character, but functional. And no comparison at all to yours!
