The scarce Central Africa Medal awarded to Mr W. J. Purkiss, Acting Superintendent at Fort Smith in 1893, where he survived an assassination attempt by Wyaki of the Kikuyu, ‘Wyaki was in the habit of entering the station frequently. One day he paid one of his usual visits. He left what arts he appeared to carry with the guard and went on to the house occupied by Purkiss, who at that moment was washing his face in a wash-hand basin. Purkiss had his back to the door which was open. Wyaki, seeing this, drew out a simi and rushed into the room and made an overhead slash at Purkiss. Fortunately the ceiling of the room, consisting of wooden rafters, was very low and the sword caught in one of the rafters before it could descend. Purkiss immediately swung round, rushed at his enemy and knocked him back against the wall where he lay until the guard dashed in....’ The following year Purkiss was appointed 2nd Class Assistant to the Uganda Protectorate, and was part of an expedition up the Nile to Wadelai. He became ill during the expedition, and eventually succumbed to his illness in August 1894 - ironically, he was buried in the mission cemetery at Kibwezi close to his former attacker Wyaki Central Africa 1891-98, ring suspension, no clasp (W. J. Purkiss.) officially engraved naming, minor edge nicks, otherwise extremely fine, and rare £1,400-£1,800 --- Importation Duty This lot is subject to importation duty of 5% on the hammer price unless exported outside the UK --- --- William John Purkiss was born in St. Pancras, London in 1861. His subsequent career in Africa is mentioned in various publications, including: Permanent Way by M. F. Hill and John Ainsworth: Pioneer Kenya Administrator by F. H. Goldsmith. The following article that appeared in Old Africa Magazine gives the following: ‘William J Purkiss, a former merchant marine officer, originally arrived in east Africa as an employee of the Imperial British East Africa Company in about March 1891 and was employed on building the narrow-gauge railway to Mazeras—the grandly named Central African Railway. The railway was soon abandoned and some time the following year Purkiss was sent to Fort Smith in Kikuyu as Assistant Superintendent. Following the death of the Superintendent, Robert Nelson, in December 1892, Purkiss became Acting Superintendent. Before he died Nelson, who had been with the H.M. Stanley expedition to ‘rescue’ Emin Pasha, had managed to infuriate the neighbouring Kikuyu with his aggressive attitude and indiscriminate raiding of their villages for food and cattle. When Sir Gerald Portal passed through the area on his way to Uganda in February 1893 on his Special Mission, he found the residents of the fort living in a virtual state of siege. Anyone venturing more than fifty yards from the perimeter without an armed escort was very likely to be attacked and killed. Purkiss managed to wound and capture an assailant, the Kikuyu leader Waiyaki, who died on his way to exile at the coast and was buried at Kibwezi. As there was no food available locally Portal was delayed at Kikuyu while sufficient provisions were collected at Machakos for the next part of his journey. By the time Portal reached Kikuyu he was already firmly convinced that the Company was moribund. But he did have good things to say about Purkiss who was trying to reduce the tension and bring about a return to peaceful trading. During his enforced stay at Kikuyu, Portal was much taken by a grey parrot which, as he mentioned in a letter to his wife, kept him company as he wrote. The parrot belonged to Purkiss. Portal probably passed on his views about the imminent demise of IBEAC, and Purkiss, already deeply disillusioned, is listed as resigning from the Company in April 1893. However, he was still at Kikuyu when Portal passed through on his return journey from Uganda to the coast in August 1893 and when offered a temporary position with the new administration in Uganda he accepted. He arrived at Mumia’s on his way to Kampala in late September 1893. In February 1894 he was given a permanent appointment as a 2nd Class Assistant to the Uganda Protectorate and was part of an expedition up the Nile to Wadelai. He apparently became ill during the expedition and was eventually moved to Eldama Ravine where he failed to improve. In July 1894 it was decided to take him to the coast. He died at Kibwezi, about 190 miles from Mombasa, on 15 August 1894, and, ironically, was buried in the mission cemetery close to his former attacker Waiyaki. The usual procedure at the time was to sell locally the deceased’s effects, except personal items such as rings and watches, and the proceeds were then used to pay off their bills (in most cases it seems these were for accounts with local traders for alcohol) with any residue being sent home to their next of kin. In this case, however, the Foreign Office appears to have required all the deceased’s effects to be sent to England. Soon the Consul-General at Zanzibar, Sir Arthur Hardinge, was being asked why the effects had not been sent. Purkiss’ father was in frequent communication with the FO and the FO with Zanzibar. This appears to have had little effect on speeding up the authorities at Mombasa as it was almost six months after Purkiss’ death that the effects were eventually dispatched. They included a live parrot. Why the parrot was sent is unclear, but maybe the months of nagging by the FO may have had had an effect. However, it was later noted by Charles Hobley, another Company man, that Consul Hardinge ‘probably never took his duties seriously’ so it looks as if sending the parrot could well have been Hardinge’s idea. The eight boxes of clothes and curios, and the live parrot, eventually arrived at the FO. The presence of the parrot was quickly noted and an urgent request sent to the next of kin for it to be collected without delay. There is a rather sad postscript to the story. Keys for two of the boxes were sent, with a request that they be passed on to the family. For some reason these were never given to the family but ended up in the FO files—probably filed away before the boxes arrived. The keys were attached to a sheet of paper and bound into what became FO 107 at the National Archives, Kew, where they still are. Presumably Purkiss’ father had to break open the boxes.’ J. D. Ainsworth recorded the following with regards to Purkiss being wounded: ‘Towards the middle of January 1893 I received a letter from Purkiss saying that the Kikuyu were giving him a lot of trouble, that he had lost some men and the Fort was practically invested and asking me for help if I could render it... We [Ainsworth and party] stopped a short distance from the entrance to the station and Purkiss with some of his men came out to meet us. There was no sign of the enemy that night and next morning it became apparent that they had entirely dispersed. I think the knowledge that outside help could be obtained if necessary made the Wakikuyu less inclined to hostile acts thereafter.... A few month later Wyaki put the final touch on things. It was the custom for the Akari guard at the entrance to the Fort to allow any of the important elders who wished to see the Officer-in-charge to enter but they were required to leave any arms with the guard. Wyaki was in the habit of entering the station frequently. One day he paid one of his usual visits. He left what arts he appeared to carry with the guard and went on to the house occupied by Purkiss, who at that moment was washing his face in a wash-hand basin. Purkiss had his back to the door which was open. Wyaki, seeing this, drew out a simi and rushed into the room and made an overhead slash at Purk...

A Deruta maiolica stand for a ewer, circa 1500The raised centre painted with a medallion inscribed 'LUCRETIA. ROMANA' bordered by a raised laurel wreath border, flanked by medallions of Caesar Augustus and Achilles facing each other divided by panels of cornucopia, grape bunches, and birds on an orange ground bordered by a banner with Latin inscription to the outer edge of the cavetto reading: 'PER VERTU SAQUISTA ONORE / FAMA RENGNANTES PER SUPERPBIA / PER ESTIMATO EST / FIDELIS USQUE AD MORTEM [With virtue one acquires honour / Fame reigns over pride / ? / Faithful unto death.' The reverse decorated with a central monogram 'PNO' depicted at the centre of a sunflower, the underside rim decorated with S-shaped scrollwork on a cobalt-blue ground. 34.1 cm diam., NOP to reverse minor restorationFootnotes:This stand is related to an armorial example in the Wallace Collection with the monogram 'CB' on the reverse, perhaps a reference to Cristoforo Bourbon di Petrella (1436-1502), Bishop of Cortona which would date it to before 1502. Another related piece in The National Gallery of Art, Washington, is inscribed 'L' on the reverse. This stand or basin would have supported an ewer which would have contained water, scented with rosemary or chamomile, for washing one's hands after dining. A fork was a novelty in 16th-century Italy, and since diners used their fingers when eating such an ewer was an essential part of dining practice.A similar, if less carefully drawn, monogram reading 'NOQ' appears on the back of a lustred Deruta ewer stand at the British Museum (acc. no. 1855,1201.81). Giulio Busti has not been able to identify the monogram with any of the known Deruta potters of the early 16th century, it could also refer to the owner.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

These pieces have stayed in the same family in English countryside which inspired him.

These lamps, typically made from clay, bronze, or terracotta, were fueled by oil, often olive oil, which was abundant in the Roman Empire. The lamps had a simple design, usually consisting of a shallow basin with a spout where a wick would be placed to burn the oil. Some lamps featured intricate designs, including depictions of gods, animals, mythological scenes, and geometric patterns, making them not only practical tools but also a form of artistic expression. Roman oil lamps were widely used in homes, public buildings, and outdoor spaces, offering a much-needed light source after sunset.The production of oil lamps was widespread, and their forms varied depending on the region and period. Early Roman lamps often featured a round or oval shape, but by the 1st century BCE, they began to take on more elaborate designs, including those shaped like animals, heads, and even miniature architectural forms. Lamps were frequently mass-produced in workshops, and many examples have been found in archaeological sites across the Roman Empire, from Britain to North Africa. Some lamps were designed with multiple spouts, allowing several wicks to burn at once, while others were simple and utilitarian. The widespread use and variety of these lamps suggest they were integral to daily Roman life, found in homes, tombs, temples, and even used for public ceremonies.In addition to their functional role, Roman oil lamps had symbolic and religious significance. Lamps were often placed in tombs as part of funerary rituals, symbolizing the continuation of life or guiding the deceased’s soul to the afterlife. They were also used in religious ceremonies and offerings to gods, particularly in the context of private worship or in the homes of wealthy Romans who could afford to have them as part of their domestic cult practices.

Made primarily of clay or stone, these lamps were simple in design, typically consisting of a shallow bowl or saucer with a pinched rim to hold a wick. This basic form allowed oil to pool in the lamp’s basin, and when a wick—usually made from plant fibers or twisted cloth—was inserted, it could be lit to provide a small, steady flame. These lamps were fueled by animal fats or plant oils, such as olive oil, which was abundant in Mediterranean regions. The accessibility and practicality of these lamps made them essential household items in Bronze Age settlements.The design of Bronze Age oil lamps varied slightly depending on cultural influences and resources available in specific regions. In the Levant and Mesopotamia, for example, lamps were often plain, functional vessels made from readily available clay, with minimal decoration. In Minoan and Mycenaean civilizations, however, some lamps were more refined and occasionally decorated with simple incised or painted patterns. As metalworking advanced during the Bronze Age, a small number of lamps were also made from bronze, though these were likely reserved for ceremonial or elite use due to the value of the material. Despite their modest appearance, these lamps held cultural significance and were sometimes used in ritual contexts, indicating their role in both daily life and spiritual practices.
