A Worcester moulded creamjug, circa 1753-55Of lobed pear shape with a scrolling silver-shaped handle, painted with a Chinese figure holding a wand, flowering plants and rockwork to the right and a red fence to the left, a brightly coloured bird on a flower branch to the reverse and two tiny moths below the spout, 8.5cm highFootnotes:ProvenanceThe Cohen Collection, Albert Amor exhibition 1992, no.18Simon Spero exhibition, 2015, no.35The model is probably derived from silver by way of saltglazed stoneware. The painting of the Chinese figure has a slightly different feel to that on other pieces from the same class perhaps due to the more unusual colouring, the standard pink tunic replaced by taupe, a colour also used to highlight the flowers and rockwork.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ** VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
A rare Worcester shell dish, circa 1754-55Of scallop shell shape with a crescent-shaped grip at the base and intricate formal moulding on the underside, painted in an unusual combination of colours with Chinese flowering plants, the buds and petals washed in red and purple, the veins of leaves picked out with fine gilt lines, 10.8cm longFootnotes:ProvenanceSimon Spero Exhibition 1989, no.33Zorensky CollectionRalph Kenber CollectionIllustrated by Sandon and Spero, The Zorensky Collection (1996), p.144, no.130.

A Worcester hexagonal creamboat, circa 1753-54With a lobed and everted rim and an angular handle with scrolled thumbrest, crisply moulded on both sides with scrolled panels painted in famille rose style, one with a Chinese figure pointing to the right, the other with a similar figure, two insects below the spout and flower spays within the interior, 10.5cm longFootnotes:ProvenanceSimon Spero exhibition 1996, no.25John Alchin CollectionThe same standing Chinese figure is found on a moulded creamboat in the Zorensky Collection. See Bonhams sale, 23 February 2005, lot 2.Hexagonal CreamboatsA staple product of Worcester's early years, the hexagonal-shaped creamboat originated at Limehouse and continued at the Lund's Bristol factory. Creamboats of this general form are surprisingly rare in English silver of the period, customers preferring porcelain to pour a costly mixture of cream and sugar on their deserts. The low creamboat shape probably corresponds to the '...pannel'd cream ewers' from the factory's London warehouse price list. Surviving examples show enormous variety in the mouldings used on early Worcester creamboats; the examples in this sale illustrating just how much even the geranium leaves below the spout can differ in form.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ** VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
A Worcester sauceboat, circa 1755-58Of fluted silver shape on a high foot, the handle with a pronounced thumbrest, painted in blue with the 'Fisherman on a Towering Rock' pattern (I.B.13), 21.8cm long, workman's markFootnotes:ProvenanceJohn Alchin CollectionSauceboats and CreamboatsImported Chinese export porcelain gave early Worcester its inspiration, but it was also its main competition. In one important area, though, Worcester excelled. British customers wanted porcelain copies of silver sauceboats and creamboats, the most desirable luxury items. While brilliant in so many other ways, the Chinese never mastered the techniques of casting and moulding. Worcester seized the opportunity to make a product that was better than anything available from China. The fact that they made so many different models and moulds shows how far they succeeded.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ** VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

April 1931) war Mitglied des Hauses Savoyen, gehörte dem Zweig Savoyen-Genua an und war italienischer Admiral. Tommaso di Savoia-Genova wurde am 6. Februar 1854 im Palazzo Chiablese in Turin als Sohn von Ferdinand von Savoyen-Genua und Elisabeth von Sachsen als jüngerer Bruder von Margherita di Savoia, der zukünftigen Königin von Italien, geboren. Tommaso wurde von seinem Vater verwaist, als er erst ein Jahr alt war, und folgte ihm im Titel des Herzogs von Genua. Er wurde unter die Vormundschaft seines Onkels Vittorio Emanuele II. gestellt, der ihn nach seiner Ausbildung an die Harrow School in London schickte. Vom 31. März 1879 bis zum 20. September 1881 im Rang eines Fregattenkapitäns, dann während der Überfahrt zum Schiffskapitän befördert fuhr er als Kommandeur der Korvette Vettor Pisani, dem italienischen Kriegsschiff in seiner dritten ozeanischen Erkundungsfahrt um die Welt.Am 15. April 1883 heiratete er Isabella von Bayern (1863-1924) auf Schloss Nymphenburg in München. 1915, als Italien in den Ersten Weltkrieg eintrat, beschloss Victor Emanuel III., von Rom an die Front zu ziehen, vertraute Thomas einen Teil seiner königlichen Funktionen an und ernannte ihn zum Generalleutnant des Königreichs. Das Amt war jedoch fast ausschließlich ehrenamtlich und beinhaltete keine effektive Machtausübung. In dieser Zeit wurden die königlichen Dekrete jedoch Lieutenantdekrete genannt und trugen anstelle der Unterschrift des Königs die von Prinz Thomas. Der Leutnant wurde auch berufen, sich direkt mit dem Notstand zu befassen, der in Mittelitalien durch das Erdbeben von Avezzano am 13. Januar 1915 ausgelöst wurde. Tommaso starb 1931 in Turin. Er ruht in der königlichen Krypta der Basilika von Superga, auf den Höhen der piemontesischen Hauptstadt. Tommaso Alberto Vittorio di Savoia-Genova (Torino, 6 febbraio 1854 – Torino, 15 aprile 1931) è stato un membro di Casa Savoia, appartenente al ramo Savoia-Genova, e un ammiraglio italiano. Tommaso di Savoia-Genova nacque nel Palazzo Chiablese di Torino il 6 febbraio 1854, figlio di Ferdinando di Savoia-Genova e di Elisabetta di Sassonia. Era fratello minore di Margherita di Savoia, futura regina d'Italia. Orfano di padre a solo un anno e succedutogli nel titolo di duca di Genova, Tommaso venne posto sotto la tutela dello zio Vittorio Emanuele II, che ne seguì l'educazione mandandolo alla Harrow School di Londra. Carriera nella marina Dedito alla vita sportiva, dal 31 marzo 1879 al 20 settembre 1881, con il grado di capitano di fregata, poi promosso capitano di vascello durante la traversata,[3] fece il giro del mondo al comando della corvetta Vettor Pisani, nave da guerra italiana alla sua terza campagna oceanica. Matrimonio e figli Il 15 aprile 1883 sposò, presso il castello di Nymphenburg a Monaco di Baviera, Isabella di Baviera (1863-1924). Nel 1915, all'entrata dell'Italia nella prima guerra mondiale, Vittorio Emanuele III decise si trasferirsi da Roma al fronte, affidando parte delle sue funzioni regali a Tommaso e nominandolo luogotenente generale del regno. La carica, però, fu quasi esclusivamente onorifica e non comportò un effettivo esercizio del potere. Tuttavia, in quel periodo, i regi decreti furono chiamati decreti luogotenenziali e portavano, anziché la firma del re, quella del principe Tommaso. Il luogotenente fu anche chiamato ad affrontare direttamente l'emergenza causata nell'Italia centrale dal terremoto di Avezzano del 13 gennaio 1915. Tommaso morì a Torino nel 1931. Riposa nella cripta reale della basilica di Superga, sulle alture del capoluogo piemontese.

Tommaso was orphaned by his father when he was only one year old and followed him in the title of Duke of Genoa. He was placed under the guardianship of his uncle Vittorio Emanuele II, who sent him to the Harrow School in London after his education.From 31 March 1879 to 20 September 1881, in the rank of frigate captain, then promoted to ship's captain during the crossing, he sailed as commander of the corvette Vettor Pisani, the Italian warship in its third oceanic reconnaissance voyage around the world.On April 15th 1883 he married Isabella von Bayern (1863-1924) at Schloss Nymphenburg in Munich. In 1915, when Italy entered World War I, Victor Emanuel III decided to go to the front from Rome, entrusted Thomas with some of his royal functions and appointed him lieutenant-general of the kingdom. However, the office was almost exclusively honorary and did not involve the effective exercise of power. However, in those days, the royal decrees were called Lieutenant Decrees and bore the signature of Prince Thomas instead of the King's. The lieutenant was also appointed to deal directly with the state of emergency caused in central Italy by the Avezzano earthquaFull description on lot-tissimo.com
