On offer is a remarkable pair of hand-forged iron double-headed Imperial eagles, traditionally known as the Reichsadler. Crafted to a commissioned standard rather than mass-produced, these large architectural armorials exemplify skilled German blacksmithing and were likely intended for mounting on significant buildings or gates. Each eagle is shaped with strong, sculptural lines and detailed hammer work, reflecting both craftsmanship and symbolism. The pair measure approximately 31 inches in height and 25.5 inches in width and survive in very good condition for their age.

The double-headed Reichsadler is one of the most enduring emblems in German heraldry, its origins rooted in the Roman Imperial eagle. Adopted by the Holy Roman Empire and later incorporated into German state iconography through the Second Empire, the Weimar era and beyond, the symbol represents imperial unity, strength and authority. These hand-forged examples are substantial historical pieces, embodying both cultural tradition and the artistry of their makers.
