Description: KIRK & SON Solid Cast Sterling Miniature"Irish Setter" The sterling silver animal figures were made between 1932 and 1961, that is quite a time span but the hallmark on the bottom of the figure indicates that period. In the 1970's,Kirk's work was more contemporary and the work was silver plated, not sterling. The "lost wax" method was simply pouring wax into a mold, drying and covering with silver in steps that would not melt the wax. There are very few of Kirk's sterling silver animal figures that are on the market, and the few that are out there usually offered at auction with a few at retail. “Solidly cast in sterling and hand crafted to achieve artistic perfection, these winsome animals capture all the warmth and humor of their live counterparts. To own one is resolve toown another…and another until your collection is complete.” Manufacturer: Kirk & SonCountry of Origin: USAMaterial: SterlingDescription: Cast and finely detailed solid sterling “"Irish Setter” paperweight Approximate Dimensions: 4" L x 1.75" TWeight: 3.68 Troy oz.
