Description:
Holland Holland 12g Royal Model de Luxe Self-Opening Sidelock Ejector completed in the early 2000's. Based on Holland's bar-action sidelock ejector with patented hand detachable locks, gold lined cocking indicators, automatic safety, two triggers cast for the RH shooter and the guard bow's edge rolled on the right side. 
The action and furniture are brushed bright and feature full coverage engraving blending a deluxe acanthus scroll interwoven with a Celtic engraving pattern. The Maker's name is engraved in flowing banners on each lock plate in a Gaelic type font to match the theme of the engraving. The engraving is very well done with extremely well cut and shaded scroll and very complex, very symmetrical Celtic knot patterns resulting in a very unique pattern. 
The 28" chopper lump barrels have Holland's self-opening mechanism hidden under the forend and Holland's patent ejectors. The Maker's name and "33 Bruton St" address are engraved on the top of the barrels and "Model de Luxe" is engraved on the top of the smooth concave game rib. The barrels have 1992 London proof marks and 2 3/4" (70mm) chambers. 
Highly figured stock has golden honey hues with bold "marble cake" type figure. The stock has traditional drop points and "Woodward" style grip with a 14 3/4" LOP over a leather covered pad. The splinter forend has an Anson push rod and both the wrist of the grip and the forend have a point pattern checkering done at 26 LPI with a Mullered border. 
The gun weighs a lively 6 lbs. 10.5 oz. and is complete in the Maker's lightweight leather case with simple accoutrements, green baize interior, and red leather Maker's trade label. 
The gun shows some minor signs of use but is excellent overall. Very well engraved and in a very unique motif on a gun that sits between the hands quite nicely, this is a superb gun on many levels.
