Mid Century Cast Brass Avro Lancaster Plane Desk Model

A substantial mid-century cast brass model of the iconic Avro Lancaster heavy bomber, mounted on a hardwood display stand. Beautifully modelled with four engines and rotating propellers, the aircraft has acquired an attractive mellow brass patina developed over decades. Likely produced in Britain during the 1950s–1970s, pieces such as this were often presented as executive desk ornaments or commemorative aviation gifts. The Lancaster remains one of the most celebrated aircraft of the Second World War and continues to hold an enduring place in British aviation history. The model displays excellent sculptural form and would make a striking addition to any aviation, military or mid-century collection.
