[sic]’, green enamel damage to Medjidieh, generally very fine (9) £2,400-£2,800 --- V.C. London Gazette 16 May 1881: ‘For conspicuous bravery during the action at Sliah-jui, on the 24th October 1879, in leading a party of five or six men of the 59th Regiment against a body of the enemy, of unknown strength, occupying an almost inaccessible position on the top of a precipitous hill. The nature of the ground made any sort of regular formation impossible, and Captain Sartorius had to bear the first brunt of the attack from the whole body of the enemy, who fell upon him and his men as they gained the top of the precipitous pathway; but the gallant and determined bearing of this Officer, emulated as it was by his men, led to the most perfect success, and the surviving occupants of the hilltop, seven in number, were all killed. In this encounter Captain Sartorius was wounded by sword cuts in both hands, and one of his men was killed.’ Euston Henry Sartorius was born in Cintra, Portugal, on 6 June 1844, the younger son of Admiral Sir George Rose Sartorius, G.C.B., and the younger brother of Reginald William Sartorius V.C., C.M.G. Along with his brothers, he was educated at Victoria College, St. Helier, Jersey, then Woolwich, and later at the Royal Military College, Sandhurst. First serving as an Ensign in the 59th Foot, he was gazetted Lieutenant on 29 June 1865. He served as a Staff Officer and Instructor at Sandhurst from December 1869 until 1874, during which time, on 29 June 1869 along with two other men, he helped to save three girls from drowning at Broadstairs, Kent, and was awarded the Royal Humane Society Medal in Bronze. When he left for India in 1874, he served as a Company Commander during the Second Afghanistan War, and for his gallantry at Shahjui on 24 October 1879 was awarded the Victoria Cross. Lieutenant Irwin of the 59th, who was under Sartorius’ command, wrote of the action: ‘Captain Sartorius ordered his men to fix bayonets, and to clamber up. The hill was very steep, and when they got to within a few feet of the top the Afghans sprang up with a yell, and, sword in hand, slashing right and left, simply jumped down upon our fellows. For a few moments, all was confusion, friend and foe falling down together, but it was speedily all over. We had gained the hill, and the standards on it, not one of the enemy having escaped. We lost one man, and Captain Sartorius was wounded in both hands. The fanatics were splendid, though ferocious-looking scoundrels, and fought like fiends, having evidently made up their minds to die, and to do as much damage as possible before doing so.’ Sartorious was invested with his Victoria Cross by Queen Victoria on 1 July 1881. Due to wounds received during his V.C. action, he partially lost the use of his left hand; unable to continue as an active field officer, he was appointed to a staff post at Aldershot. In the 1882 Anglo-Egyptian War he was appointed Deputy Assistant Adjutant-General and Quartermaster-General, responsible for base and communications, and was afterwards promoted brevet Lieutenant-Colonel; was Mentioned in Despatches; and was awarded the Fourth Class of the Ottoman Order of Osmanieh. He was promoted Colonel in 1886, and was Assistant Adjutant-General in Portsmouth from 1891 to 1894. He then served as Military Attaché to Japan, and was appointed a Companion of the Order of the Bath in 1896. Promoted Major-General in 1899, he retired in August 1901, although he continued to serve as a Colonel of a volunteer battalion of the South Lancashire Regiment. The inscription on the reverse of the Victoria Cross ‘R. S. to E. S.’, presumably refers to the fact that Euston Sartorius was gifted his miniature V.C. by his brother Reginald Sartorius, himself a recipient of the V.C. during the Ashantee War. The Sartorius brothers are one of only four sets of brothers to both be awarded the Victoria Cross (the others being C. J. S. and H. H. Gough; G. N. and R. B. Bradford; and A. B. and V. B. Turner).

Gérard, Marchak amongst others.Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Jean-Norbert Salit, stating that the piece is a work of René Boivin from 1965. Signed and dated 7 February 2022 It is ironic that René Boivin is a name well known in the jewellery world, as his life is relatively unknown. It is also interesting to note that René Boivin did not always craft the pieces that bear his name.Boivin was born in Paris in 1864. He began his career in jewellery at a young age and, by the time he died in 1917, had become a highly skilled designer and engraver, leaving behind him a legacy of excellence in jewellery.During the 1890s, he purchased several workshops, establishing himself at rue St. Anastase, then relocating in 1893 to Rue de Turbigo. He married Jeanne Poiret, the first woman jeweller of the 20th century (sister of the famous couturier, Paul Poiret) and together they created some of the most exciting and bold fashions of the early 1900s.In the early 20th century Japanese art and antiques were very much en vogue and, as Boivin had a passion for antiques, it is no surprise that this trend influenced his own jewellery designs. His skill as a goldsmith can be appreciated from beautifully finished pieces and his interest in animals and nature inferred through jewellery themes.After René’s death, Jeanne assumed control of the business and moved to avenue de I’Opera with Juliette Moutard and her daughter Germaine Boivin. They worked together for forty years, joined by Suzanne Belperron between 1921 and 1932. After Jeanne’s death in 1959 the house was taken over by Louis Girard and in April 1991 the company became part of Aspery Group, with the main office and store located on avenue Montaigne.Condition Report: Diamonds: Bright and lively, mostly VS2-SI clarity - cannot be accurately graded for colour due to yellow metal setting French assay mark to tongue and maker’s mark for Cristofol to collar near clasp Clasp secureNormal signs of wear, overall in good conditionTotal gross weight approx. 46.6g* Found in 1830, the workshop Cristofol worked for René Boivin, Cartier, JAR, Fred, M.
