Item Details

Low Estimate2000
High Estimate3000
serial #3318, About 10 ga. (likely worn, underside of barrels are marked “12”), 32 1/2” barrels with mostly bright very fine bores which show remnants of some light oxidation and light pinprick pitting. The barrels are mix of soft brown patina and remnants of a nice damascus pattern with some areas toning to pewter. There are scattered spots of oxidation and a few scattered spots of light pitting. The rib is Moore & Harris London marked with “Superfine Laminated Steel”, this surrounding the seal of Britain, lion and unicorn flanking the coat of arms. Breeches show a bit of color case-hardening with platinum blowout plugs and dual inlaid platinum lines with a bit of engraving on the rib extension between, the tang very neatly engraved and retaining very good original blue. The lockplates show perhaps 30% original color case-hardening, the balance toning to a smoky case-hardened patina. They exhibit a few sprays of excellent quality light open flowing scroll with game birds right and a running hare left, the engraving really quite endearing. Both hammers show a bit of engraving and are chiseled at their nosecap into Scottish Terrier head motifs, uncharacteristically folky for a British shotgun and quite endearing. The balance of the metal surfaces are primarily a dull gunmetal gray patina with the bow of the guard showing some strong trace bright blue. They show the same light open engraving with the bow of the guard having a gun dog on point. The English walnut stock rates very good with the expected minor dings and handling marks that come from the years and a circular repair to divot along the toeline with another repair at the toe proper. It is now devoid of finish but shows some nice grain figure and has an unengraved monogram plate atop the wrist. The locks are mechanically functional, the left hammer slightly ahead of the right. The arm comes cased in a mahogany presentation case with nickel plated brass supports on the exterior, mahogany wiping rod, leather shot pouch and patent fireproof screw off top leather covered powder flask from American Cap and Flask. there is a small whisk brush, a mainspring vice and a nipple spanner wrench. The interior is a fading Burgundy lining, a few of the supports are loose but present. A very attractive British percussion fowler with some very unique hammers.
