Sterling Silver Presentation Car Model - Vintage (1984)

This exceptional and rare, vintage English cast sterling silver presentation ornament has been realistically modelled in the form of a 1910s era car* on a wooden plinth.

The impressive silver car model is embellished with details reproducing the fine definition of the vehicle's body work and fabric features.

The car is fitted with axles to the underside allowing the functional wheels to rotate.

This exceptional vintage silver detachable model surmounts the original oak wood plinth, accented with the original hallmarked vacant silver inscription plaque to the anterior chamfered face.

* Whilst the exact car model cannot be declared, the piece bears similarities to the style of a Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost and ALFA 24 HP.

Maker: Untraced Maker's Mark

This vintage sterling silver car model is an exceptional gauge of silver, exceptional quality and exceptional presentation condition.

Full hallmarks struck to the underside of the car and surface of the plaque are all very clear.
