Field Gun Bottle Holder

About

A novelty bottle holder by Atkin Brothers of Sheffield, in the form of a field gun, with design registration marks for 1868, the ‘gun’ created by the bottle when in position. The carriage finely detailed with bottle-collar secured with a chain to enable different sized bottles to be positioned, a ramrod attached to the rear, and a stylized ‘chock’ to position under the wheel to stop it from rolling on the table. English, circa 1868. The Atkin Brothers consisted of Henry, Edward and Frank and as a firm produced a variety of good quality items in silver and silver plate. The initials of the brothers were used on plated ware from 1853 to 1958 and they occupied a retail outlet in London, until the firm was taken over by C J Vander, in 1958.
