CA 1920 Dentzel/Muller Stander

Proud, active, glamorous outside row stander. From the Dentzel shop, but clearly a Muller. The Muller Bros. left Gustav Dentzel in the early 1900s to start their own shop, which sadly failed from over-carving, and over-caring. After, they would carve for PTC and others, then hired back to the Dentzel factory by William in 1918. Gustav had passed a decade before. The Muller brothers added a number of fun, new designs to the Dentzel herd in those years up until 1926 when “the carving died”. This horse is an elegant example of Muller meets Dentzel. Simple, maybe, but the carving detail is superb and one-of-a-kind. Showing some age, a few scuffs, but solid and wonderful older restoration. From the collection of the late, revered, Jon Abbott.
