Authentic VTG Wood with Embossed Silver Metal Religious Trinkets Vampire Stake

Authentic VTG Wood with Embossed Silver Metal Religious Trinkets Vampire Stake This is a beautiful and scary Authentic VTG Wood with Embossed Silver Metal Religious Trinkets Vampire Stake. The stake is made of wood and painted black with intricately embossed designs wrapped around the stake at various levels. There is a small crucifix towards the metal tip and another crucifix embossed on the handle. The stake measures approximately 12.5" long and is in great vintage/antique condition. I found this at an estate sale in an old house in LA filled with religious artifacts. I thought it was a dirk or a magic wand. I was quite taken aback when I discovered what it was! This is such an unusual and unique piece and would add these elements into any bohemian, Gothic or eclectic environment.
