In the company of the aforementioned makers, Joseph was considered one of the finest clockmakers in late seventeenth century London, and produced a prolific number of lantern clocks of all sizes and qualities.

A rare Arts and Crafts silver seven-piece 'Country Range' tea and coffee service, and a twin-handle tray,maker's mark for Johnson, Walker & Tolhurst Ltd., London 1904, signed 'L. Movio, 1904',the kettle on stand and hot water pot, maker's mark Godfrey, Bell & Godfrey Ltd., London 1920, signed 'L. Movio',each piece of baluster form with spot hammered surfaces, chased with bands of entwined flower blooms and leafy stems in high relief, a dog rose with thorny stems, poppy, nasturtium and sweet pea, comprising:a teapot,coffee pot,two-handled sugar bowl, andcream jug,the large two-handled tray depicting each of these four flowers to each quarter section of the border,later kettle on stand and hot water pot, chased with convolvulus, blackberries, pots with ivory insulators,tray 75.5cm, kettle 33cm high, 288ozt (7)Provenance: From the private collection and descendant of a past owner of Johnson, Walker & Tolhurst, who purportedly originally commissioned the service.The facsimile signature of Latino Movio (1858-1949) has been noted on chased and embossed Arts and Crafts silver pieces hallmarked between 1901 and 1907.Although very few details about his life and work have come to light, he appears in the 1911 census as an Italian 'artist in metal repoussé'. His son and daughter are recorded living in the same house as a 'brass finisher and chaser' and 'art metal teacher' respectively.Given the style of his work and the date when his signature begins to appear on silver, it seems probable that he was employed in the workshop of Gilbert Marks, whose output ceased around 1902 because of illness. Further weight is lent to this argument by the fact that Movio's facsimile signature turns up on items bearing the 'maker's mark' of Johnson, Walker & Tolhurst for whom Marks worked and at whose showrooms he exhibited his silver from 1895 to 1901. A likely scenario is that Movio continued to work for them (as well as for other retailers) on his own account after leaving the employ of Marks, applying his own signature in the same style. Movio last appears as a 'chaser' in a 1934 trade directory.Condition report: There are stains to the interior of the teapot, coffee pot and kettle. There are no boxes. There are surface scratches and knocks to all pieces with heavier dents to the teapot, kettle and cream jug. Some rims misshapen.
Lot 161
An embroidered panel,'Maids of Honour', designed by May Morris in 1880-92, the verse reads 'Welcome maids of honour - You do bring in the spring and wait upon her', inset into a mahogany firescreen, 62cm wide90cm highProvenance: From a descendant of the Trevelyan Family of Wallington Hall, Northumberland.May Morris, William’s youngest daughter, was an important figure in the Arts and Crafts Movement. The verse is the opening of 'To Violets' by Robert Herrick, a 17th century poet. May helped transform embroidery from a domestic pastime - undervalued because it was mostly done by women - into a serious art form. Her work was exhibited widely and pieces like this showed what could be achieved by imaginative and inventive free-hand stitching, as opposed to the more plodding woolwork dominating much amateur production.May had become the head of Morris and Co.’s embroidery department by the time she was twenty-three, but she was concerned by the lack of professional organisations open to women and tried to redress this by founding the Women’s Guild of Arts in 1907.Wallington Hall is now owned by the National Trust. The interiors were remodelled with Pre-Raphaeliate art, sculpture and decoration. The artist William Bell Scott was commissioned to paint the walls with a series of vivid Pre-Raphaelite scenes depicting great moments in the history of Northumberland. Bell carried out most of the painting and one panel was painted by John Ruskin. Another Pre-Raphaelite friend of the Trevelyan family was sculptor Thomas Woolner, who created sculptures in the entrance hall. Lady Mary Terevelyan (1881-1966) was keen on the arts and there are a series of tapestries woven by her at Wallington Hall – it may be that she used the May Morris design from a pattern which was known to have been published in the ‘Day Book’.Condition report: See additional images.Fading to the colours of the embroidery. Blue ground with stains throughout. The right leg has had damage and the spindle support is no longer present.
