Unique SPINNING WHEEL Horse Harness Brass from England!

Horse brasses were used to adorn the harness horses, primarily in the UK, many would identify the route simply for decoration, royalty, different industries such as train or brewery and some I am sure were just made out of fondness for a likeness or animal. Some older brasses were worn on harness, others were just made primarily to commemorate a certain event. It is hard to date many harness brasses, yet you can get an idea from the patina as well as how well the brass is cast. You can sometimes tell from the darkness on thte reverse, from the brass slapping against the leather of the harness, but some people clean their brasses often, so this is not always a tell tale sign. Stamped brasses are from the early 1900's and only up to the 1930's. Most brasses you come across were cast and often the getts (the holder for the casting) is left partly on the back of the brass. I find horse brasses lovely and intriguing. All of the brasses I offer for sale are from England.

Here is a nice old Horse Harness Brass from England of a Woman and a Spinning Wheel. Rare addition to your collection or that perfect unique gift for that Spinning Wheel Person!

This measures 2 3/4" in diameter and the hanger is 1/2".

For S/H I charge $5 for the first brass and $2 for each additional brass.
