Petite Adjustable National Gallery Whistlejacket Derby Handle Walking Cane

If you're smaller in height, finding a beautiful walking aid can prove to be difficult. The Petite Adjustable National Gallery Whistlejacket Derby Handle Walking Cane is a smaller version of the Adjustable National Gallery Walking Cane and is adjustable in height so you don't have to miss out. The support features a beautiful repeating pattern of George Stubbs' iconic 'Whistlejacket' portrait, allowing you to take a tribute of the artist's work around with you wherever you go.

Contribute to the Painting's Conservation

Whenever you purchase this National Gallery Walking Cane, you contribute a small amount of money to the conservation of some of the nation's favourite paintings. This helps ensure your own favourite paintings remain in the gallery for when you next visit.

The Painting's History

Whistlejacket was one of the 2nd Marquess of Rockingham's favourite stallions. In 1762, Stubbs painted the famous 'Whistlejacket' for the 2nd Marquess of Rockingham, who was not only Whistlejacket's owner but also one of Stubbs' patrons. The masterpiece was then bought by the National Gallery in 1997 with support of the Heritage Lottery Fund.

Plastic Derby Handle

Designed with a plastic derby handle, the Whistlejacket Walking Aid provides you with excellent hand support and stability. Its flat but slightly-curved shape allows you to hook the handle over your arm or on a table when you don't need to use it.

This support's handle is more petite than the taller version and less curved. This ensures the mobility aid suits your hand correctly.

Strong Aluminium Shaft

This Adjustable Walking Cane has been made with a strong and light aluminium shaft to ensure you get the support you need. The stick only weighs 260 grams, meaning it isn't painful to carry around.

Sizing of the National Gallery Walking Stick

The Derby Handle Walking Stick can be adjusted in height from 67cm to 90cm (approximately 26" to 35.5"), making it suitable for a wide range of petite users. This also helps provide you with a personalised fit, which prevents pain and instability in your wrists and hands.
