1970 Rare 9-Spoke P-10 Design

The P-10 millefiori design is generally found with 7, 8 or 10 spokes, but seldom with 9 spokes - which is what makes this one rare! (see the article by Richard More in the 2004 PCA Bulletin, page 100). Well made canes - in lemon, orange, dark-brown and silvery tones - set in the usual 1-2-2-3 formation between latticinio twists over clear ground.
Signed with a red S in a white cane; dated 70 in white/yellow tube. The flat, polished base bears the original factory label.
