About Me2 piece split cane rod marked "J. S. Sharpe Maker Aberdeen" on the handle and "J. S. Sharpe" with an illustration of "Scottie" dog on the cane.

The top section is shorter than the lower section, with a red agate in the ring (while the other rings are white), suggesting this has been shortened following a break.
