Vintage 1936 Beswick-Style Graduated Flying Mallards | Set of 3
If you're looking for a bit of wall art with actual weight and history, these are a significant step up from the common ceramic versions. Cast in solid iron and dated 1936, this graduated trio has a rugged, industrial quality that feels far more substantial than the later mass-produced sets.
They bring a great sense of movement to a room, especially when styled above a sideboard or along a hallway. The original hand-painted finish has aged beautifully, showing just enough wear to prove their 90-year pedigree without losing the vibrant mallard colours. It’s a classic look that works perfectly with timber-heavy interiors, adding a nice bit of texture and a nod to a very specific era of design.
