Description: FINE RARE 1800s ANTIQUE CARVED FOLK ART FIGURAL LABRADOR POCKET DOG CALL WHISTLE FINE & RARE 1850’s-1880’s ANTIQUE CARVED FOLK ART FIGURAL LABRADOR POCKET DOG CALL HUNTING WHISTLE This is a Rare Antique Victorian period hand carved Folk Art Figural Pocket Dog Hunting Whistle. Their rarity stems from not only being around 150 years old, but from their size, which obviously could easily be lost over time. This hand carved dog hunting whistle would have been used by a Wealthy Sportsman who enjoyed bird hunting such as pheasants, to signal his trained hunting dogs and also fellow huntsmen. These were also used in mounted fox hunts for Gentlemen of means had the time, a horse, hunting dogs, and location to indulge in a Sport only an affluent Gentleman of means would have been able to afford. These hand carved dog call whistles were made in very limited quantities and come in small, medium and large sizes that produce different whistle calls; but all are pocket sized. Some hunters used different whistles for signaling his dogs, signaling his fellow huntsman, et al. These are mostly made in England, some in France, and a few were hand crafted in America. Although all these whistles are unmarked, this one is a Labrador Dog, English made by James Dixon & Co with his distinctive carving characteristics. Dixon began making dog whistles in 1850. By 1883, Dixon was producing 6 styles of animal whistles. This pattern is shown in their 1883 catalog as a #17, made in small, middle, and large sizes. All of these whistles are hand carved and have slight differences and their own personality. The medium and large size whistles mostly have glass eyes. This is the medium size with glass eyes that has the standard window up configuration, i.e., the V shaped exhale hole is located on the topof the whistle. This piece is about 2 1/8" long X 11/16" across x 5/8" tall. The weight is .4 oz. or 11 grams. This piece is hand carved oxbone with naturally occurring aging to a pleasing cream color. The end has a hard wood walnut plug with concave surface inside. Some of these whistles are made with a ball inside that creates a warbling sound. This whistle was made with a large V cutout with the original interior ball (appear to be wood), and works properly with a loud, high-pitched distinct warbling shrill signal. The small mouth ring is used to attach a neck lanyard. This piece is in fine used condition overall, without the typically found hairline cracks. As originally created, this Dog Call whistle was, and is, intended for, a discerning Gentleman of Means who wants an interesting, rare handsome Antique carved Folk Art piece that would be perfect for any Hunting, Dog, Whistle, Carving, Outdoorsman, smalls collection, or as a conversation / display piece; and can still be used today as a safety whistle.  PAYMENT ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PAYPAL & ELECTRONIC FUNDS TRANSFER, e-CHECKS & ALL MAJOR CREDIT & DEBIT CARDS, APPLE PAY, GOOGLE PAY AND ALL OTHER PAYMENT METHODS APROVED BUY EBAY. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SHIPPING ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ FREE SHIPPING & HANDLING FOR DOMESTIC BUYERS & TO THE EBAY U.S.A.
