Item Photos click to enlarge This is a very rare and stunning, very detailed antique (1903)+  solid sterling silver Sculpture/model of a Horse by John George Piddington. Hanau silver was largely imported in UK between the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century, the main importers being Berthold Muller and J.G. Piddington. The UK company J.G.Piddington was a shipping and forwarding business founded in 1849, the firm was a partnership between J.Friend and J. Piddington. The grandson of Piddington, John G.Smith jr. took the surname of his grandfather in 1900. J.G. Smith & Co are noted to have imported a great deal of silver, apparently an important part of their business until 1939. Many of these items, decorative in nature, to be of German origin.

The detail is really amazing, the muscle tone, face, mane and the horse hair look incredible.

It is in really excellent condition, it has two small casting cracks on the leg by the British hallmarks but they do not cause a problem at all as they are only surface cracks(see pictures).

It is fully hallmarked on the side of the front right side leg with the makers "JGP", the lion passant, date letter "h" for 1903, "F" for Foreign import and the lion passant. It has German Hanau marks on its belly which are a pair of crossed keys which denotes liegnitz city which is now in Poland plus another mark.

The horse sits on a black stone base which is virtually perfect.

It is approx. 11.7 cm long and 11.5 cm high including the base.

It weighs a substantial 363.0 grams approx. including the base.

Look at the pictures to see the beautiful quality of this item, it is one of the nicest I have come across.
