Vintage English-Style Horse Brass Wall Hanging – Six Decorative Brass Medallions on Black Leather
Beautiful vintage horse brass display featuring six individually detailed brass ornaments mounted vertically on a traditional black leather strap.
This charming piece features six distinctive designs:
* Prince of Wales Feathers – Traditional British royal emblem.
* Lion’s Head – Beautifully detailed lion surrounded by a decorative border.
* Rearing Horse – Classic equestrian design.
* Horseshoe & Shield – Traditional symbol of good luck.
* Three Legs of Man – Triskelion design associated with the Isle of Man.
* Scottish Thistle – Traditional Scottish floral emblem.
Horse brasses were historically used to decorate working horses’ harnesses throughout Great Britain. Over time, they became popular collectibles and decorative accents for English country homes.
Interesting Detail: The pointed end of the leather strap has faint lettering that appears to read “Made in England.” The lettering is worn and difficult to decipher completely, but it may indicate English origin.
The brass ornaments have a beautiful aged golden patina that contrasts wonderfully with the traditional black leather backing.
Perfect for English country cottages, farmhouse interiors, equestrian collections, rustic decor, or vintage wall displays.
