A GEORGE III POLYCHROME DECORATED PAPIER MÂCHÉ TEA CADDY ATTRIBUTED TO HENRY CLAY, C1780 inset with two Wedgwood jasper ware cameos, one of Aesculapius, the well preserved painted decoration in the manner of Robert Adam, giltmetal mount, the interior with the original laminated papier mâché cover, 12cm h Henry Clay of Birmingham, Japanner in Ordinary to His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales was the pre-eminent manufacturer of papier mâché goods in the late 18th century. The present caddy conforms to his 'New Improved Paperware' Patent of 1772, being of laminated construction, as distinct from the traditional papier mâché method. The Wedgwood cameos are original and an example of that of Aesculapius is illustrated Reilly (R) Wedgwood, 1989, vol II, fig 1227. Wedgwood's biographer, Eliza Meteyard (1816-1879) described Henry Clay as "a most ingenious cabinet-maker of Birmingham, [who] was at this time doing much for Wedgwood's fame, by inserting the cameos in tea caddies, writing desks, dressing cases and similar articles.... These signs of Clay's exceeding taste and ingenuity induced [Matthew] Boulton to suggest a partnership, but Clay for some reason declined." It is not known whether the present caddy is marked as the slightly recessed foot is still covered to a large extent with what could be the original coarse green baize. Other examples are illustrated Gilbert (C), Marked London Furniture 1700-1840, Leeds 1996, figs 201 and 202. An example set with jasper ware cameos but decorated with a dusted ground is illustrated Jones (Y), Japanned Papier Mâché and Tin Ware, Woodbridge 2012, fig 116. Another example, almost identical to the present lot, was sold Bonhams, London, 6 March 2013, lot 103. ++In good entirely unrestored condition with light wear and old build up of dirt, lacking the ring from the finial on the lid, the hinge complete and in good condition, the jasper medallion on the reverse slightly scratched and lacking the glass.

DANTE GABRIEL ROSSETTI (1828-1882) CASSANDRA mounted photograph albumen print, shaded in pencil by Rosetti inscribed lower right by the artist's brother William Michael Rossetti (1829-1915) To Mary Allport and dated 1898, further signed inscription verso By Dante G. Rossetti - Cassandra. The subject is Cassandra prophesying the death of Hector as he goes off for his fatal encounter with Achilles - Deiphobus is remonstrating with her - Helen is equipping Paris for the Fight and looks up angered at some words of Cassandra reflecting up her - Andromache Astyanax, Priam and Hecuba are present. Hector calling across Cassandra and her prophecy of doom is giving the work of command to the Trojan captain in the background, sword in hand. The pen and ink drawing was executed in 1860-61 and DGR wrote 2 sonnets for it. Its owner is Col Gillum, New Barnet. This photographic print used to belong DGR himself and came to me after his death. The pencil-tinting traceable on some parts of it, must I suppose be his own doing, with a spirit to experimenting as to some difference in the chairoscuro (signed) W.M.R., laid down on the original mount, 20 x 28cm Colonel William Gillum owned D G Rossetti's drawing of Cassandra, which he bequeathed to the British Museum in 1910. G Rossetti never developed the drawing into a painting. ++A most interesting association item provenanced directly to the artist's brother and in fine condition with some typical light time staining/browning to the card mount.
