This one is cast, not stamped :)

An interesting 'hybrid' cast horse soldered to a pressed border
jbcherry - Wednesday, 10 February 2016 at 15:41:59
An interesting 'hybrid' cast horse in pressed border, would be informative to see the back of this one.

Census of 1911 lists William Llewellyn saddler and harness maker of Blue School Street Hereford, aged 58.

It is probable that this has been made with the same punch as was used to do the top of the tulip on 5984, though I would need to see the two side by side to be certain.
jbcherry - Friday, 5 February 2016 at 16:23:47
Interesting, not stamped, either cast from a crude pattern or "hand cut" from a very rough piece of sheet metal.
jbcherry - Friday, 5 February 2016 at 16:16:50
This is the same brass as in picture 5714
jbcherry - Friday, 5 February 2016 at 16:13:46
I suspect this is "hand cut" rather than stamped
Jamesblair - Friday, 22 January 2016 at 02:01:32
Interesting - I have not seen a white metal Royalty before. My own research into white metal brasses indicates that they had a variety of uses: in coastal areas where they were more resistant to salt air than yellow brass; some canal boatmen favoured them, and Gypsies preferred white metal harness decorations. It is said that they were easier to keep clean than brass where the harness was almost permanently exposed to the elements.

Seeing this I think I will have to extend my definition of "hand cut" to "those brasses that have been cut from sheet by saw, drill, file OR CHISEL, without the use of casting or press tools. :)
