This collection features six decorative items, comprising five cast brass objects and one carved wooden figure. The brass pieces include a stylised standing greyhound or whippet, a seated cat with angular features, a pair of ornamental flintlock pistols with cast scrollwork decoration and cross-hatched grips, and a flat-backed owl plaque with a textured feather pattern. Also included is a small cast brass figurine of a young animal, possibly a horse or foal. The wooden component is a hand-carved humanoid figure in a stylised form with a dark, polished finish. These objects are typical of mid-20th-century mantel ornaments found in the United Kingdom. No maker’s marks were observed.
