A MID 19TH CENTURY ONYX CAMEO, ENAMEL, PEARL AND DIAMOND BRACELETThe oval sardonyx cameo, an interpretation of an intaglio by Luigi Pichler (see Georg Lippold, 'Gemmen und Kameen des Altertums und der Neuzeit', Hoffman, Stuttgart, 1922, CXXV,/5), depicting a lion fawning over Eros, embodying the notion 'love conquers all', within a border of pearls, old brilliant-cut diamonds and black enamel fleur-de-lys motifs, on a black enamel articulated openwork strap with pearl, old brilliant-cut diamond and black enamel fleur-de-lys quatrefoils, mounted in yellow gold, diamonds approximately 10.10 carats total, pearls untested, cameo dimensions 2.8 x 1.9cm, two black enamel and diamond fleur-de-lys motifs deficient, length 16.9cm, fitted case by Hartley, 45 Albemarle St, London, W.Footnotes:ProvenanceAdrian John Hope (1811-1863), son of Thomas HopeLady Beatrice Lister Kaye (1862-1935), his great-niece and daughter of 6th Duke of NewcastleAdeline de la Feld, (1881-1975), her daughterMichael Parsons, 6th Earl of Rosse, (1906-1979), her nephew, on his marriage to Anne Messel in 1935Anne Parsons, Countess of Rosse, (1902-1992), his wife and mother of Antony Armstrong-Jones, Earl of SnowdonThe bracelet's first owner is said to have been Adrian John Hope, scion of the Anglo-Dutch dynasty of merchant-bankers and patrons of the arts. Adrian was the son of Thomas Hope, the noted scholar, prominent collector, writer, and proponent of Neo-Classicism who filled his London townhouse in Duchess Street, Mayfair and his country mansion, The Deepene in Dorking, Surrey, with his collections of art. Thomas's brother was the gem connoisseur Henry Philip Hope, whose legendary collection of gems, that included the blue Hope Diamond (now in the National Museum of Natural History, Washington DC) and the Hope Spinel (sold at Bonhams for a world record price in 2015), was one of the most important private collections of gems ever assembled. The two brothers would also purchase, share and exchange works of art and jewels with each other and after their deaths, their vast collections were inherited and dispersed by their many relatives and heirs. It is uncertain when or how Adrian acquired this bracelet; perhaps he inherited the cameo from his father or his uncle and had it mounted. It is also possible he purchased the bracelet as a complete piece. Adrian Hope's great-niece, Lady Beatrice Lister Kaye, wore it at her wedding in 1880. In 1935, it was again given at a wedding, this time to Michael Parsons, 6th Earl of Rosse, himself a descendent of the illustrious Hopes, for his bride, the beautiful Anne Armstrong-Jones (née Messel), whose love of jewels is described by Diana Scarisbrick on the previous pages. The bracelet is a fitting marriage token: not only is the lion proffering its paw to Eros an allegory of love but during the 19th century the bracelet was the premier jewel of sentiment.This bracelet and the emerald bangle, lot 103, were great favourites of the Countess of Rosse and she may be seen wearing them in many society photographs of her. She wore them at the marriage of her son Antony Armstrong-Jones, 1st Lord Snowdon, to HRH The Princess Margaret in 1960 and both are clearly visible, one on each wrist, in their wedding portrait by Cecil Beaton with HM The Queen and HRH The Duke of Edinburgh in attendance. For reasons of copyright we are unable to reproduce the image in the catalogue but it may be searched for and viewed online.LOTS 103 – 104 TWO JEWELS FROM THE COLLECTION OF THE COUNTESS OF ROSSEINTRODUCED BY DIANA SCARISBRICKWhen I asked the Countess of Rosse what she considered the purpose of jewellery, her answer came swift and sure: 'it is for the beautification of women'. She followed this precept, for the jewels in her collection certainly enhanced her own appearance which was that of a great beauty much photographed by the Royal and society favourite, Cecil Beaton. Leaving nothing to chance, she explained that before each of her many social engagements she would always take the time to plan for it well in advance. She would first choose the right outfit and then with her husband, decide whether her diamonds, her emeralds or her rubies would best suit the colour and design of the dress as well as the circumstances of the particular event. She wore her most important jewels with one of the architectonic satin and tulle ball gowns created for her by the New York dressmaker, Charles James, and the combination made her look as majestic as the Empress Eugénie portrayed in a Charles Worth crinoline by F.X. Winterhalter, circa 1860. Similarly, when her son, Antony Armstrong-Jones, later 1st Earl of Snowdon, married Princess Margaret in May 1960 and their wedding was preceded by a ball at Buckingham Palace, she rose splendidly to the occasion. The invitations read 'tiaras will be worn' and she dazzled in the Rosse family diamond and emerald parure - tiara, long earrings and necklace - with an exquisite black and white organza gown from Victor Stiebel, standing out in the brilliant crowd. Daytime, less formal but official, events connected with the National Trust, the Georgian Group and the world of art and museums brought out her pearls and the Victorian diamond stars which she arranged so often in so many different combinations that they seemed to be part of her personality. They, like these two bracelets, evoke the period after World War 2, chronicled in the inimitable diaries of Henry 'Chips' Channon, when, through her marriage to Lord Rosse in 1935, her connections with royalty and her friendships with the leading figures in the arts, she played the part of an important hostess in London and in Ireland to perfection.In Michael Rosse she had found the ideal partner and would therefore have been particularly attached to the cameo bracelet for it was one of their wedding presents, with an interesting provenance, having previously been given by Adrian Hope to the parents of her mother-in-law on their marriage in 1880. As the sister of Oliver Messel, the genius of British theatrical design, heiress to the estate and gardens of Nymans in Sussex, Anne Rosse had been brought up surrounded by beauty, and passed on her feeling for it to her children and grandchildren. Coming from such a cultivated milieu, she would have appreciated that, as the son of Thomas Hope of The Deepdene, famous for its Greek style interiors, Adrian shared the Hope family passion for classical art, which is reflected in his choice of a cameo inspired by an ancient Roman model. Moreover, to friends admiring the bracelet on her elegant wrist, she must have enjoyed explaining the significance of the happy scene of the mischievous little divinity playing with the lion tamed by the all-conquering power of love, so relevant to her own personal experience. © Diana Scarisbrick 2021For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
AN ENAMEL AND DIAMOND PENDANT, CIRCA 1860The pale blue enamelled heart-shaped locket applied with old brilliant, single and rose-cut diamond-set thistles, roses and shamrocks around a star, opening to reveal a glazed compartment containing a hair scroll, suspended from a similarly-set diamond surmount, mounted in silver and gold, length 3.2cm, fitted case by Hunt & Roskell, Late Storr, Mortimer & Hunt, Jewellers & Goldmiths, to the Queen and Royal Family, 156 New Bond Street, LondonFootnotes:ProvenanceMargaret (née Shaw-Stewart), Duchess of Somerset (died 1880)Accompanied by a handwritten note worded 'Containing hair of H. M. The Empress Queen Victoria. This locket was given by her to the Duchess of Somerset while on a visit at Wimbledon Park'.This lot was inherited by the current owners from various lines - both male and female - of their family. The majority of jewels in this collection were owned by members of the Surtees family; a prominent family from County Durham whose ancestry may be traced back to William the Conqueror. The surname Surtees, is derived from 'sur-Tees' or 'sur-Tays', in reference to the rivers Tee or Tay, near where the family anciently settled. The Surtees' family home was the 17th century Jacobean manor house, Redworth Hall, sold in the mid 20th century and now a luxury hotel. Some of the jewels in this collection, notably the three pendants with Royal connections, were owned by the Shaw Stewart family of Scotland, descended via the male line from Sir John Stewart, illegitimate son of Robert III of Scotland. The ownership of the jewels by individuals is stated where possible.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
A LATE 17TH CENTURY GOLD AND QUARTZ RINGCollet-set with a table-cut smokey-quartz in an elaborately engraved gold mount, the base decorated with green enamel via incised delineation, between engraved chain-link shoulders with cruciform terminals, ring size KFootnotes:This ring was found by a metal detectorist in Peatling Magna, Leicestershire on 3rd June 2016. Under the stipulations of the Treasure Act 1996 and due to its age and metal content of a minimum of 10% precious metal, the ring qualifies as Treasure and has been disclaimed by the Crown (treasure number: 2016T677; PAS Database number: LEIC-6B7C83). The design is comparable to rings in the Cheapside Hoard in the Museum of London.

AN ART DECO MULTI GEM-SET AND DIAMOND PENDANT, CIRCA 1925 AND LATERThe pentagonal plaque pierced and decorated with highly stylised floral and foliate motifs, set with single-cut diamonds, ruby, sapphire and emerald cabochons, onyx and green hardstone leaves with scalloped enamel borders, the outer plaque set with onyx cabochons, suspending diamond-set tassels terminating in fluted and polished emerald beads, the fountain surmount with similarly-set diamonds and a central sugarloaf ruby, on a cord set with green paste beads, between old brilliant-cut diamond and engraved foliate spacers, mounted in platinum, diamonds approximately 3.25 carats total, lengths: pendant 10.7cm, cord 65.0cmFootnotes:This flat, highly stylised design of flowers and leaves in diamonds, rubies, sapphires, emeralds, jade and onyx of various cuts and shapes, is similar in taste to the jewels produced by Mauboussin in their Rue de Choiseul workshop in Paris from 1925 to 1928. During this period Mauboussin moved away from the 'cold stiffness' and 'dry formulae of the Cubists' towards curves and colour. For similar examples, see De Cerval, Marguerite, 'Mauboussin', Paris, 1992, chapter 'The 1920s A Burst of Colour', and Garbardi, Melissa, 'Art Deco Jewellery 1920-49', Antique Collectors Club, 1989, pp 98, 100-101, 106, 111. It is also interesting to compare this jewel to the boldly coloured, naïve floral dress fabrics by Atelier Martine for Paul Poiret in 1919. Examples may be seen in the Victoria & Albert Museum London, accession number T.540-1919For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
