E. W. GODWIN (1833-1886), PROBABLY FOR GILLOW & CO. AESTHETIC MOVEMENT ‘COFFEE TABLE’, CIRCA 1880ebonised birch with incised and gilded decoration(48cm long, 69.5cm high, 37.5cm deep)Footnote: Literature: Soros, Susan The Secular Furniture of E. W. Godwin, Yale 1999, pp. 29, 155, 267, pl.220 William Watt (Firm); Watt, William, Godwin E.W., et al Art Furniture designed by Edward W, Godwin F.S.A. and manufactured by William Watt, B.T. Batsford, London, 1877, plate 8 where the design for the present lot a 'Coffee Table', is illustrated. Note: Godwin's ideas for furniture were ‘so accurately rendered that they were easily translated into actual designs to be put into production by the many well-established cabinetmakers that flourished in Britain during the 19th century’. Godwin contended that “Cabinetmakers always prefer architects to design for them when they can get them” and this is borne out by the numbers of firms which used his designs including Collinson & Lock, Cox & Son W.A.&S. Smee, William Watt, Gillow & Co. and others. Godwin’s design for the current lot, the maker attributed to Gillow & Co., appears marked ‘Coffee Table’ in an interior setting in one of his line drawing in William Watt’s Art Furniture designed by Edward W, Godwin F.S.A. and manufactured by William Watt of 1877. The quality of construction and refined details such as the incised gilding suggests the superior cabinet-making skills of a firm like Gillows. This example also equates to other marked examples of Godwin’s more familiar square-topped coffee table by Gillows, which bear similar gilded embellishments.

Lot 125
Offered for public sale is a rare and important pipe tomahawk attributed to the Sioux Ghost Dance of 1890 of the Eastern Santee Sioux and formerly owned by a Cheyenne, Little Bear. Provenance: The piece was originally collected by Dr. Charles Eastman who acquired the tomahawk from Little Bear of the Cheyenne Indians at the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation sometime near the turn of the century. Dr. Eastman donated the weapon to Father Joseph Ward’s Yankton Indian College Museum where it remained on display until the museum closed in 1984. During the museum deaccession the contents were purchased by Piedmont, South Dakota artifact dealer Jim Aplan. Aplan sold the tomahawk later to Cyrus Eaton of London, England in 1985. The tomahawk features a hand-forged iron head with tall bowl, forged moldings and chevrons with filed lines and a large long tapering blade that exhibits a rare four-point morning star cut out surrounded by four circular full moon piecing’s. This style of morning star and the cutouts exhibited on this piece have been documented as known Ghost Dance symbols. The pipe axe head shows a diamond shaped eyelet or eye hole and is paired with an ash wood haft handle with extensive hot file brandings and brass trade tack bands. The head is secured to the haft with an old thick buckskin gasket. Just below the gripping area of the tomahawk shows a spurred out pierced section holding a drop tied with Indian tanned hide lacing and is comprised of a strip of brain-tanned Buffalo hide with typical Sioux beaded geometric patterns in glass trade seed beads also exhibiting long hand cut fringe, two strands of wound glass large sky padre blue padre or pony beads with rolled tin jingle cones at the end with fringe and two strips of old red and green trade cloth tied on. The tomahawk has a nice mellow patina with expected minor wear from age and use. The piece is of a larger size of other similar third quarter-19th-century pieces. Previous collectors presumed that Little Bear already had the tomahawk which was thought to date to the Indian Wars era and contracted the blacksmith to apply the cutout symbols to the blade to use in ceremonial dance, this is of course a theory. This style of morning star with four pieced holes has not been seen on a tomahawk such as this making this a unique Ghost Dance example with nice collection history. Provenance recap: Owned by Little Bear Cheyenne Indian and is of Eastern Santee Sioux origin, ex-collection of Reverend Joseph Ward, ex-collection of the Yankton Indian College Museum from its nearly 70-80 year collection, ex-collection Dr. Charles Eastman, ex-collection of Jim Aplan of Piedmont, South Dakota, ex-collection of Cyrus Eaton of London, England. Published in the 2020 book "Rare American Indian Weapons Volume 2" by Mark Francis on page 95. The head measures 12 ½ inches long by 4 ¼ inches wide across the bottom of the blade. The tomahawk overall is 24 inches in length

The lot features a rare and important circa 1890 Ghost Dance Shield attributed to the Lakota Sioux Indians at the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota. There are three known authentic Ghost Dance shields attributed to the Sioux; one example in a museum in Rapid City, South Dakota, the second sold by NAAC at our Bozeman, Montana sale in 2018 attributed to Grandma Holy Bear and this third example. Provenance: The piece was acquired at the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation by Dr. Charles Eastman who later gave the piece with other relics to Reverend Joseph Ward’s Yankton Indian College Museum. It was part of the Ghost Dance display at the Yankton Museum which also included a shirt, two dresses, a few drums and pipe tomahawks. There had previously been four shields from the Sioux Ghost Dance movement that exited at the Wounded Knee Memorial Site Museum that was attributed to American Horse, but was destroyed in a fire set by A.I.M. (American Indian Movement) members in 1973 under Russel Means and Dennis Banks, who set the museum ablaze during their standoff with Federal agents (this was known as the Wounded Knee Incident or Wounded Knee Occupation). This example shows a wetted and stretched Buffalo Bison parfleche rawhide over a bent wood frame that is secured together with hide lacing and old hide glue. The shield shows old mineral pigment polychrome painted figures and symbols in colors of red, yellow, black and blue. At the center shows a black large waterbird flying up towards the sky with wings spread; at the top shows a yellow background with ten four-point morning stars in blue, a single crescent half moon and single full moon both in blue. The bottom shows a red background and the shield overall shows four tied drops of Indian tanned hide, a drop of old trade clothe at the bottom and a drop of partridge feathers at the center. The paint has a nice patina with some fading from age. At the back shows the hide lacing and parfleche ties wrapped over the bent wood along with the long, braided hide shoulder strap still attached. The current collector believes that Lakota Sioux Chief Fast Thunder’s third wife, “Little Bird” and community elder “Grandma Holy Bear” likely made the Sioux Ghost Dance dresses, shirts, drums and shields as items attributed to them have very similar art appeal and styling. Provenance: The piece was acquired at Pine Ridge Indian Reservation by Dr. Charles Eastman and given to Reverend Joseph Ward’s Yankton Indian College Museum where it was on display in the Ghost Dance collection until the museum and college closed in 1984 and the contents were acquired by Jim Aplan of Piedmont, South Dakota. Aplan sold many of those pieces to wealthy collector Cyrus Eaton of London, England in 1985. The shield measures 18 ½ inches across and is in well preserved condition for its age.
