This rare vintage/antique Hudson Bay presentation collar with a silver gorget and silver medals is in very nice antique condition, showing light to normal wear for the age. The silver on these is most likey coin or german silver, though they have not been tested so I can't say for sure. Here's a little history on trade silver from the Canadian Encyclopedia: "Silverbecame a symbol of friendship and alliance and was first used in military alliances during the colonial wars. Later, fur traders presented gifts of silver to the chiefs of Indigenousnations with whom they wanted to trade. Viewed not as a bribe but as a token of goodwill, the practice followed an Indigenous tradition most commonly associated with wampumexchange, and symbolized an agreement between equals." The entry goes on to say that later fur traders used these silver items to trade for furs.
This piece features two 4.5" x 3.5" double crosses attached toa large 7" x 3" center gorget piece that is attached to alarge collar.The center gorget is stamped "HB", "Montreal", and has a crown and lion rampant marks. The two double crosses (which were considered more valuable than a single cross) are marked similarly to the gorget piece: one has "HB", "Quebec" and a crown mark; the other also has "HB", but has "Montreal", a lion rampant, and an "S" in a circle. Both crosses have intricate designs engraved on the edges. The collar is a dark purple velvet with gold brocade edges and a light purple satin or silk lining. There is a label attached to the inside of the top of the collar that says "HUDSON BAY TRADE TWO CROSS GORGET PRESENTATION COLLAR". The fabrics are in nice condition, showing normal to light soiling for the age. The piece is attached to the batting of the display case by a single stick pin at the top. Once that pin is removed the entire piece comes out freely.
The piece will come in the glass and board display box/shadow box frame as I feel that would be the best way to protect the piece for shipping. The display box measures roughly 14" x 20" x 2".
