19th Century French Studded Leather Dog Collar with Brass Nameplate

19th century
For Sale by Tinker & Toad
Description

A characterful Parisien canine collar, likely late 19th century, made from substantial black leather with triple rows of domed brass studs and robust brass mounts. The front carries a shaped brass nameplate engraved: “MR HUMBERT , VILLA MAFALDA , 11 RUE DES ROCHERS, CLAMART,” placing it in the Paris area. At the centre sits a substantial wrought-iron ring for a lead or leash, showing honest oxidation. The slotted brass terminal, brass keeper and buckle plate are all hand-riveted, and the leather shows hand-stitched edging to the interior. Presents beautifully as a piece of social and sporting history. Interestingly house mentioned on the name plate still stands and is visible on Google Earth. Condition is good for age with attractive wear: surface marks to brass from polishing and use, light verdigris in places, rubbing to leather edges. The hardware remains sound. Dimensions approx.: length 59 cm; band width 3.75 cm.

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.

During the 19th century, studded leather collars served both practical and decorative purposes. Heavy metal studs protected working and hunting dogs necks from animal bites, whilst elaborate brass fittings served as status symbols for wealthy owners.

Traditional dog collars were hand-crafted by saddlers using thick bridle or harness leather. Components were secured with hand-hammered copper or brass rivets, featuring heavy forged metal rings and custom-engraved brass identification plates.

Authentic period collars display natural patination and surface cracking on the leather, hand-stamped or hand-engraved typography, and hand-forged or cast metal fittings with irregular edges rather than modern machine-stamped precision.

An antique dog collar functions well as a decorative curiosity when mounted on a custom display stand, placed inside a shadow box, or arranged on a bookshelf alongside brass object accents and leather-bound books.

Preserve antique leather by applying a specialised conservation wax to maintain flexibility without softening the structural shape. Avoid harsh metal polishes on the brass fittings to preserve the historical oxidisation and surface patina.
