CONTINENTAL IRON AND BRASS CURULE CHAIR 19TH CENTURY with brass flattened knop finials, with a distressed red velvet cushion with tassel trim(71cm wide, 82cm high, 42cm deep)Footnote: Note: The Thrie Estaits was an emporium of wonders. Set up by Peter Powell in Edinburgh in the early 1980s, the shop in Dundas Street was a treasure trove of the eclectic, the beautiful and the quirky. It was hard to find a shop like it, and for nearly forty years it was the go-to for extraordinary works of art. Peter trained in silversmithing at Glasgow School of Art in the late 1960s and after graduating worked at Elders in Charing Cross. Elders were pioneers in Glasgow in the promotion of contemporary design, especially the Scandinavian and Italian designers, appealing to Peter’s eye for the unusual. From Elders, he graduated to the Dovecot Studios in Edinburgh to work on their range of tiles. The studio was set up by the Marquis of Bute predominantly as a studio for weaving tapestry although the tile-making offshoot was given a space in the studio. Peter continued making tiles when the Dovecot Studios closed their tile-making operation, but he also started to buy and sell antique tiles and other small objects too. He finally bought his own shop in Dundas Street Edinburgh where he was able to expand into other disciplines and where larger items could be displayed. Peter named the shop The Thrie Estaits after the 16th century satirical play of the same name by Sir David Lindsay – a commentary on the church, the state and the common man and a reflection too of the variety of the stock. Before long the shop became known around the country for its interesting and eclectic contents. One customer describes how his visits “felt like entering an antique shop in Spain or Portugal, filled with a miscellany of desirable objects, a number of which I then acquired and scattered throughout my home. Their emporium had two enticing windows set back from the street - one of the windows involved standing over a pierced cast iron grille, always hoping it wouldn’t give way, but worth the risk! A few steps down to enter another world and at the back, beyond where Peter sat, lay a further room with a window and it too was laden with treasures.……”. Certainly the shop could be described as small but absolutely packed with things, though always displayed with thoughtful care and some verve, wherever possible! Peter and his long-standing partner Walter Gordon often benefitted from the cheerful help of Roger Cave, a wizard on the internet. They dealt with clients ranging from museums and institutions to dealers such as Roger Warner at Burford and Gretchen Andersen at the Lacquer Chest in London, amongst other tastemakers drawn to the shop. More recently Peter moved The Thrie Estaits to East Lothian where he has traded successfully for a number of years at Fenton Barns. After over 40 years he has made the difficult decision to close and to turn full circle, returning to collecting, restoring and selling objects on a smaller scale.

Patek Philippe. A fine and extremely rare stainless steel manual wind split second single button chronographReference: 5950ADate: Purchased 16th November 2011Movement: 27-jewel Cal.27-525 PS manual wind, adjusted to heat, cold, isochronism & 5 positions, No.525117Dial: Silvered, applied black coated white gold Breguet numerals, black outer 1/5th second and minute track, black flourishes to each corner, subsidiary dials at 3 and 9 for seconds and 60 minute recording, black leaf hands, black centre split second handsCase: Polished cushion form, snap on exhibition back, start/stop/reset set within crown, split second button at 2, No.4541753Strap/Bracelet: Dark brown Patek Philippe alligator leatherBuckle/Clasp: Signed steel buckleSigned: Case, dial & movement Size: 36mm Accompaniments: Patek Philippe box, outer card, Extract from the Archive Footnotes:When it was launched at Baselworld in 2010, the 5950A turned heads. The single-button, split second chronograph is powered by the revolutionary Calibre CHR 27-525PS. The movement, which was first used in the 5959P is, to this day, still the thinnest column-wheel chronograph calibre ever made. At just 5.35mm it is an exquisite feat of the finest watchmaking. Movements like this are the reason Patek Philippe are so revered.Despite its relatively young age, this piece is already a tried and true collector's item. The 5950A is an Application piece, meaning it was only ever made for and sold to Patek's best clients. Its limited production making it exceptionally difficult to find. The watch's distinctive design only further improves its desirability. While most complicated Pateks are fashioned from precious metals, this reference is crafted in stainless steel, a surprising, but welcome deviation from the norm. The classic raised Breguet numerals and belle epoque flourishes seamlessly compliment the modern aesthetic of the case making the watch timeless and modern. With such consistently strong numbers at auction, this model is the ultimate collector's piece. It is already cemented as one of the most impressive pieces from, arguably, the most important manufacturer.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: YY Subject to CITES regulations when exporting items outside of the EU, see clause 13.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
