“Walking sticks produced in Antep are a product of affection, delicateness and love.”
Walking sticks have three main features:
* You can use them.
* You can give them as a present.
* You can collect them (for example you can hang them on the wall).
Furthermore, these walking sticks are so steady and strong by their nature that they serve longer than the craftsman made them. And that's why they have a characteristic of antique.
EASY TO CARRY
The product is divided into 2 parts, in addition, there is a metal-embroidered plate inside the product.
MATERIAL SUPPLY
Gaziantep walking stick has three main parts.
1. HANDLE: Hardwoods such as a walnut tree, ash tree, hornbeam tree, mahogany tree, boxwood, beech tree and mulberry tree, metals such as silver or brass, or bones such as buffalo horn can be used as handles.
2. BODY: Raw material of Gaziantep walking stick is cornel tree grown in our district, quality of which is higher compared to other regions. Cornel tree is a marvelous tree in terms of workability, strength, and soundness and it ensures craftsmen to apply smooth inlays without any snaps; furthermore, as it is white inside, all kinds of ornaments and inlays seems richer. White hornbeam and black apple trees are also used to make walking sticks.
3. END (Guarding point touching the ground): Buffalo horn has usually been applied on the end point of the walking stick. However, recently, craftsmen producing combs in Gerede district quit their work, and that's why there's a shortage of quality horns, and hence technological rigid plastic called polyamide, which is very easy to use, is applied instead of horns.
MOTHER OF PEARL
Mussels, oysters, such as the shell of marine animals found in the shimmering, white, hard substance. The work of placing mother-of-pearl in carvings on wood material is called the art of Mother-of-pearl inlay. The art of Mother-of-pearl inlay is often done by carving and inlaid techniques; walnut wood, silver wire, yellow brass, wire velvet and mother-of-Pearl are used as raw materials.
STORAGE
The trees to be used to produce walking sticks should be very dry, and the trees to be used as handles should be left at least for one year as woods. To supply the wood to be used as the body, lumberjacks begin to cut sticks (which is called “değnek kesme” in Turkish) when water is low. And this cutting process continues before spring. Craftsmen producing walking sticks buy sticks from these lumberjacks in exchange for a certain amount of money. Some parts of the outer layer are stripped (both to ensure the stick dry out faster and to maintain the white color of the wood by extracting the essence) and these woods are stockpiled and used in the following year.
* Made of the walnut tree
* All walking sticks are personalized and produced by orders.
