Antique 19th century Victorian cast iron cat
The cat used to be on top of a victorian house as a roof ornament, possibly to scare of birds or maybe it was meant just for decoration.
It still is a very decorative piece that, due to years of exposure to the elements, got a nice oxidized patina that only makes it more characteristic!
It was placed on a wooden stand and would make the perfect decor piece to stand in your window or on a cabinet!
Measurements:
Height: 55 cm
Length cat: 38 cm
Length stand: 45 cm

Antique 19th century victorian childs prosthetic leg
This small prosthesis has been customized for a child.
Though called a prosthetic “leg” this actually is a prosthetic foot as it only replaces the wearer’s foot.
The prosthesis features two bending hinges that replace the joints of the ankle, foot and knee and so still made it possible for the wearer to walk after losing his, or her foot.
The prosthesis is equipped with multiple straps and buckles and could be fastened by leather straps on the wearers thigh.
This is an unique oddity that would fit perfectly in a medical collection or cabinet of curiosities!
After more than a century the prosthesis remains in a used condition and shows signs of wear and time.
Except of some minimal restoration I decided to keep the leg in its original condition.
All leather parts have been cleaned and treated with leather grease.
Measurements:
Length prosthesis: 65 cm
Length foot: 21 cm

Antique 19th century victorian prosthetic leg
Though called a prosthetic “leg” this actually is a prosthetic foot as it only replaces the wearer’s foot.
The prosthesis features two springs and bending hinges that replace the joints of the ankle, foot and knee and so still made it possible for the wearer to walk after losing his, or her foot.
The prosthesis could be fastened by three leather straps on the wearers thigh.

After more than a century the prosthesis remains in used condition and shows signs of wear and time.
The leather covering of the foot has been torn in the middle.
