Late Victorian Antique Silver Cockerel Statue, Hanau C.1900

19th century
Description

A magnificent antique Continental 800 silver statue of a cockerel. Marks for Hanau probably made in the late Victorian period around 1900. It is in excellent condition with no damage or repairs. As you can see from the pictures the head comes off which I believe was done to save import duties as this changed the tax category. It has realistic glass eyes and a set of makers marks on the foot. A beautifully large piece of decorative silver which has been cast and the detail hand finished.

WEIGHT; 735 grams or 24 ozst approximately.

Free delivery in the UK. Payment by bank transfer, card over the phone, PayPal or Klarna. Using Klarna payments can be split over three months.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Hanau silver refers to decorative silver items produced in Hanau, Germany, primarily from the late 19th to early 20th century, often recreating earlier historicist styles.

These figures were typically cast or chased using continental silver alloys, featuring hand-engraved feather textures and occasionally set with stone or glass eyes.

Authentic pieces usually bear pseudo-hallmarks or maker marks specific to Hanau silversmiths, alongside characteristic detailed chasing work and historicist forms.

Position the piece as a focal accent on a sideboard, mantelpiece, or dining table to provide contrast against contemporary surfaces.

Dust regularly with a soft microfibre cloth and polish occasionally using a specialised silver polishing cloth, avoiding abrasive creams or harsh chemical cleaners.
