Antique Silver

 

Item: Dog's Collar Description: "R Miller, Newhall Street"  Hallmark: Birmingham 1906 by Grey & Co. Dimensions: 430mm long, 103g weight

Comments: A very rare dog collar made from fully hallmarked silver. Each link in this collar is appropriately marked and the clasp has five settings. There is a D-shaped ring for connecting to a leash. The central link is engraved with the name and address of the dog's owner "R Miller, 3 Newhall Street Birmingham". 

Newhall Street is in the heart of Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter and was the home of Elkington & Company and remains the address for the Birmingham Assay Office. The dog may well have belonged to the owner of an Edwardian silversmithing establishment or judging by the length of the collar (maximum neck circumference of 15") this may even have belonged to a guard dog!
