Silver Plate Pickle Castor Carriage Wheels Owls Butterfly Sunflower 1890s Homan

1890s Homan Silver Plate Pickle Castor Carriage Wheels Owls Butterfly Sunflower. VICTORIAN LATE 1800s PICKLE CASTOR BY HOMAN SILVER PLATE Co.

THIS MAGNIFICENT AND QUITE RARE CASTOR IS IN THE FORM OF A CARRIAGE ON WHEELS WITH AN EAPG GLASS CANOE FOR HOLDING THE PICKLES. THE FRONT OF THE CARRIAGE HAS A VERY DETAILED MOUNTED BUTTERFLY SEEMINGLY TOWING IT ALONG WHILE TO THE REAR ARE TWO OWLS STANDING AT THE TOP OF A LARGE SUNFLOWER AND APPARANTLY PEERING INTO THE DISH BELOW. THE OVERALL CONDITION IS EXTREMELY GOOD AND I WOULD SAY THIS ITEM HAS HAD VERY LITTLE USE OVER THE COURSE OF ITS LIFE. THERE IS PRACTICALLY NO WEAR AND VERY MINIMAL SCRATCHES TO THE SILVER PLATING. THE CARRIAGE HAS NO DENTS OR DINGS AND THE GLASS CANOE IS UNDAMAGED.

THE WHEELS ARE IN GREAT CONDITION AND WORK WELL. LENGTH OF THE CARRIAGE IS 25CM AND HEIGHT IS 22CM. THE INCLUDED FORK IS NOT ORIGINAL BUT I'M SURE COLLECTORS COULD FIND A SUITABLE PICKLE FORK TO ENHANCE THIS ITEM.
