Dating to the 1880s, this three-dimensional American eagle was originally created as a parade or ceremonial decoration—its hollow-body form crafted from gilt tin, with wings fully outstretched and head turned confidently to the right. In its talons, the eagle clasps the traditional emblems of olive branches and arrows, a symbol of balance between peace and strength. Five post mounts on the reverse once held flags during public celebrations and civic gatherings. We've included five vintage flags—not original to the piece, but scaled just right and true to its spirit. With its timeworn gilt surface and beautifully aged patina, the eagle carries the warmth of generations past: a nod to craftsmanship, symbolism, and the layered story of American life. Proud but not boastful, it’s a classic expression of Americana—equal parts decorative object and cultural artifact.
