This pelham is made from steel, with a dark aged patina
The mouthpiece is twisted and has a central hinge or rule-joint.
The joint is constructed so that the mouthpiece can only bend through about 90 degrees.
The cheeks turn, Each cheek curves forward and then back in its lower part - possibly just a decorative feature because the curb rein loop still sits in line with the cheekpiece looop
The bit still has its original curb hooks.
It is a really well made bit but I cannot find any maker's marks or stamps
Dimensions : Mouthpiece 5½" (14cm), total
cheek length ( not including curb rein rings) 7" (18cm)
