Poul Petersen Solid Gold Jensen Styled Queen's Plate Stakes Horse Racing Trophy
About the Item
This solid 14-karat yellow gold Queen's Plate Stakes horse racing trophy was made by renowned Danish Canadian silversmith, Carl Poul Petersen for Mappins of Montreal for the 1961 running at Woodbine. The trophy incorporates iconic Canadian symbols from the very detailed figural beaver on the top, to the extremely well executed pierced maple leaves that compose the trophy's stem. The scrolled serpentine handles are ornately decorated with Jensen inspired floral pods,presumably of the woodbine flower, within their interior and finished with a maple lea at their base. The trophy is engraved with the Jockey Club insignia at the top and the cup itself reads:
The Queen's Plate Stakes

Sire Chop Chop Dam Blen Lark

The trophy sits on a turned wooden base and is is clearly marked on the side "Mappins" and "14k" underneath with a somewhat curious "J" within an impressed shield which may refer to the possible commission of this trophy to the Jensen firm which Poul was affiliated with when he undertook to complete this important Canadian horse racing trophy. The trophy itself weighs an approximate 760 grams of 14-karat yellow gold.
