Kai KristiansenDesk, model no. FM 59, 1960sTeak. 73 x 179 x 85 cm Produced by S.B Feldballes Møbelfabrik, Aarhus, Denmark.Footnotes:ProvenanceWriter and Observer journalist, Katharine Whitehorn, LondonThence by descent to the present ownerLiteratureSB Feldballes Møbelfabrik, advertisement, August 1960Illums Bolighus, Center of Modern Design, Copenhagen, 1961, cat. 12493All the proceeds from the sale of this lot will be donated to Dementia, UK.Katharine Whitehorn's desk by her son, Bernard LyallMy mother, Katharine Whitehorn, worked from home throughout her long journalistic life. She would go in to the Observer from time to time, and travelled frequently, but her actual writing was almost entirely conducted at home, in our large living room, at this desk. My brother and I learned early on that there were certain times – especially her 'copy day', when her weekly deadline loomed – when she was not to be disturbed. My parents furnished their north London house in the early- to mid-60s, buying several decent new pieces of contemporary designer furniture which they then, on the whole, treated pretty terribly. This Kai Kristiansen desk is no exception. Over the following 50-plus years, Kath beat dozens of portable typewriters, and then several laptops, to death on it (for some reason both my parents used only portable, manual typewriters, until they eventually went digital; neither could bear electric ones). Oddly, my mother was a quite erratic, strictly three-finger typist; she'd reckoned when young that if she never learned proper technique, there was no chance she'd end up someone's secretary. But the wear is all superficial; the desk is fundamentally quite sound. We only really got a good look at it when we cleared it, after she left home. Until then, it had always been almost entirely covered in piles of paper, books, magazines, photographs, stationery, and anything else which happened to alight there. My mother kept on writing, with increasing amounts of help, until 2017. In April 2018 she moved into a care home, suffering from advanced Alzheimer's, a form of Dementia. The course of her illness has been very difficult for her, and heart-rending for us, but the care she has received, both at home and currently, is the thing which has had the greatest impact on her quality of life, and on ours. I am extremely pleased to offer her desk – in its way, quite a historic item – to Dementia UK, as a gift in Kind. To be sold at auction to raise funds for Admiral Nurses. Admiral Nurses work alongside people with dementia and their families giving them one-to-one support, expert guidance and practical solutions. They work in different care settings: in the community, in care homes, on the Admiral Nurse Dementia Helpline, in hospitals, in hospices and in clinics, and they maintain the highest level of practice, supported by Dementia UK.Dementia is an awful affliction, but one which most of us will have to deal with in one way or another. If her desk can, in some small way, help in the struggle – not just for a cure, but for a decent life for those involved – then I'm sure my mother would thoroughly approve.

An early 20th century gold coin purse, the two colour mesh link purse with lattice decoration, the handle stamped 9ct, 16.8g, suspended from an early 20th century two colour curb link chain, stamped 18, 49cm long, 21.8g, and a small gold coloured bear charm, 1.5cm long including suspension loop, 0.4gCondition Report: The purse appears to be missing three links, one from each side at the same point and one lower down in the white gold sections, and so this could be from manufacture. The chain has wear between the links, half worn through, but it is still wearable, there is some wear to the clasps, particularly to the ring bolt.

Sampson Mordan, an early Victorian gold mourning pencil, circa 1850, the barrel with scrolled foliate black and pale blue enamel, with In Memory Of in black enamel and inscribed with the name H. Smith, with arrow detail, a purple foil backed clear stone endpiece, the tip marked with an M, 8.5cm long (retracted), 7.7g gross, in a period fitted burgundy leather pencil boxThe arrow detail was generally used on gold pencils by S. Mordan that did not bear the name. The use of light blue enamel in jewellery often denotes a young or unmarried person, however the use here could just be decorative.Condition Report: The condition is very good for its age, there are a few small chips to the enamel, only really noticeable under close inspection. The piece has not been tested for gold standard, but it is reputed that Mordan used 10 carat gold for his pencils and used the arrow mark to denote this, please see Bull. K, The KB Collection of Gold Pencils, private publication, 2012, page 48The lead hole is approximately 1mm diameter, the slider is in good working order. The pencil has no hallmark. No noticeable cracks or major damage to the metal, there are a few small nicks to the lobed tip. The fitted box is in good condition for its age.Condition Report Disclaimer

An American 'Mound Builders' steatite bear effigy pipe, Washington County, Tennessee, 22cm long. 'Mound Builders' were prehistoric American Indians, named for their practice of burying their dead in large mounds. Beginning about three thousand years ago, they built extensive earthworks from the Great Lakes down through the Mississippi River Valley and into the Gulf of Mexico region. Pipes were smoking instruments, used by persons of power and authority for ceremonial or ritual purposes; these effigy pipes were perhaps the sacred symbols or icons of reverence for an entire community or clan. Provenance: The Trevor Barton Collection.
