| | Silver Pheasants
It is unusual to find silver models of animals before the 1870's but they quickly grew in popularity. Berthold Muller opened a shop in Wardour Street, London in 1893 and imported Dutch and German models, primarily from Ludwig Neresheimer & Co. in Hanau, Germany. These were of very fine quality and became so popular that a heavy duty was imposed on the import of silver models. To avoid this tax they started making them with removable heads so that these could be imported as pepper pots, scent bottles or decanters or with moveable wings as toys. During the 20th Century many English companies continued producing fine quality models and we often have second-hand pieces by the leading exponents: William Comyns, C J Vander and A E Jones. We are also very proud to be able to offer new items by all of these famous makers.
