    Description

    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 of the 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 the 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 THE DOBERMANN
    Horse Harness Brass from England. It is oversized with THE DOBERMANN
    in the middle and a leaf border. DOBERMANN is DOBERMAN PINSCHER in the United States and Canada. This was made by John E Ellis, who made a number of these in the 1970's and early 1980's. He was known for his large size quality brasses and stamped them JEE on the ba
    ck.
    This would be a very unique addition to your dog
    collection.
