Pleasant Greetings... Here for you bidding pleasure is lot number NINE of ELEVEN Vintage British Horse Brass auction lots that we are currently offering for sale this week on eBay. These are cream-of-the-crop pieces from an old collection. THIS one of apparent crossed MEASURING TOOLS, perhaps SPRING BALANCES, is said to be from a SECRETIVE ORGANIZATION, front and back.

Most if not all are slightly larger in size than the average horse brass -- note the 25-cent U.S. coin shown for scale in the photo.
All start at a modest opening bid price, some listed with very reasonable Buy-it-Now option pricing.

All are British Made and composed of TOP-QUALITY brass.

Most of these rare pieces are worth $45.00 or more each, yet, these are being sold without a reserve price.

On offer are many super-rare pieces featuring geometric shapes and designs. They date back to the 1880s
and 1890's
. There are also TWO exceptional variations of the raised bee-hive or the bee-keeper's brass, plus
two
secretive organization pieces. Additionally, there a fabulous example of a big thick and hefty specimen of Triple Crescent Moons. Any of these would make for a welcome addition to an existing and expanding collection or an impressive foundation on which to build a brand new collection. Or how about as a fashion accessory? Read on...

Did you know that these unique artifacts of a bygone era were originally created to function as much more than basic equine adornments? If not, now you do. Back in the 1800's they were considered as talismans or amulets that served to protect steeds, and by extension their riders from evil and harm! 

Today, some folks actually wear vintage horse brass as jewelry, hanging like large pendants from raw-hide strips worn
around ones neck.

Imagine that... Horse Brass as adornments for humans! 

My oh my, how the world has changed.

Collectible object, good-luck charm or jewelry, the choice is yours.

There you have it folks, rare historical antique items with a variety of potential uses. 

Acquire some today. 

Flat-rate shipping to ANYWHERE in North America... One horse brass item $2.95. Additional pieces $1.00 each,
or, the ACTUAL POSTAGE COST, whichever is LESS. Only slightly more to Europe or other overseas destinations. 

Thanks for looking - Have fun bidding!
