Massive Brass

Antique Dog Collar

The 19C brass dog collar measures 6 1/2"

in diameter on the second slot and 7" on the

last slot.  The collar is 2 3/8" wide.  It is in

very good condition.  Some of the brass needs

cleaned.  Some minor wear. The collar is

inscribed "Arthur Gillis, Hoegaerdstiaet Thienen".

  The collar has engraved circus or performing

dogs throughout. A very rare and unusual collar.

  A very heavy collar, it would take one large

dog to wear it.
