Walking stick button; used as a cachet; The round; cast button rests on a slightly constricted band with a profiled upper edge; with which it was attached to the rot. Above a curved bottom edge; it widens to the curved top. The bottom edge is decorated with C-volutes; rocailles and a flower garland. Above that the wall is adorned with a representation of the Judgment of Solomon. In an interior with a tiled floor and a colonnade that offers a view of a landscape; Solomon sits on a throne seat with an asymmetrical C-volute-backed back; placed on a raised platform under a canopy with twisted columns. The dead baby is in front of him. A helmeted warrior wants to pierce the living baby but is thereby stopped by the mother; while the mother of the dead child watches in horror. Spectators are two women; a boy and a warrior; holding a shield with an asymmetric cartouche on top. The scene is closed from above by a border of C-volutes with rocailles; leaf garlands; capitals and engraved scaly fields. Abraham's sacrifice is shown on the top. Abraham is about to pierce his son Isaac; kneeling on an altar; with a dagger; when an angel appears in the clouds to stop him.
