FINE AND EARLY ELEGANT 1632 DATED DUTCH CANNON MODEL WITH ORIGINAL CARRIAGE.

SN NSN. This is a beautiful and early Dutch family cannon with a rarely seen early carriage which appears contemporary and probably original to the manufacture of this tube. Cannon bbl is in beautiful condition measuring 15″ and about 16-1/2″ overall with cascabel. Manufactured in the early style with iron chaplets found in breech. Cannon is beautifully decorated with realistic dolphin handles, florally decorated bands with a central grotesque mask on first decorated band. Floral and punch dot decorated breech and florally decorated and chased cascabel. Breech is dated in relief “1632” surmounted by a floral wreath. There are no makers marks discernible but two small oval cartouches with indiscernible raised marks are found between trunnions on bottom of about 12 pound tube (about 25 pounds including carriage). Double trail carriage is mounted with decorated wrought iron including wheels which still retain some apparently orig paint as does carriage body. This is a beautiful well patinaed cannon and carriage which would make a fine centerpiece in any display or collection. PROVENANCE: Hampton P. Howell, Jr. Collection. Springfield Arsenal, LLC Artillery Collection. CONDITION: Very good to fine overall, cannon and carriage are 28″ overall and about 12″ hub to hub. Cannon has overall chocolate brown patina with scattered green spotting. Details are crisp as can be seen in photos with some small dents and dings especially on basering. Carriage has an old repair where both cheeks were broken or cracked and are now reinforced on both sides by 4″ and 5″ pieces of sheet iron attached by good craftsman with old cut square nails. Iron strap repairs have old brown patina almost matching the deep black/brown patina of orig iron mountings. Right trunnion cap is broken and missing 2/3 of its length though all four trunnion keys are intact on their orig tiny chains. One wheel is missing its iron hub cover and wheel is missing one of its forty hammered nails attaching metal tread. 4-54087 JS284 (4,000-6,000) – Lot 1460
