Lot 13
A fine and rare Frederick Edmund Winkler bisque doll, in original box, German, circa 1894-1899, the Bähr and Pröschild head impressed 320-14 dep, with open mouth and moulded upper teeth, weighted blue glass eyes, pierced ears, blonde mohair wig, with unusual jointed wood and composition body, probably by Adolf Wislizenus, in all original cream pleated dress with rose pink velvet lace edged collar and matching bonnet trimmed with lace, cream pink and olive satin cut ribbons, the original box labelled 1/12dz 1501-4 VC Bébé articulé et incassable D.R.G.M. 27589 Made in Germany, 24in.The German Doll Encyclopaedia 1800-1939 by Jürgen and Marianne Cieslik, page 336 states that Bébé articulé was the registered trade mark of F.E. Winkler for jointed dolls. It is believed that the head was originally made by Bähr and Pröschild in 1894 although the trade mark was not registered until 1899 when Winkler won the Paris Medaille d'Or. His dolls were obviously intended for French market. Figure 1955 on the same page illustrates a similar body. 24in.***CONDITION REPORT***Head and body good; cream dress fragile, with holes and tearsPLEASE NOTE:- Prospective buyers are strongly advised to examine personally any goods in which they are interested BEFORE the auction takes place.

Lot 213
A historically important Chinese Imperial embroidered silk purse, hebao, Qianlong period, c.1793, the kidney-shaped coral coloured satin purse finely embroidered in coloured silks to each side with three bats and two wan symbols amid ruyi-shaped clouds, above waves and lishiu strips, the draw string and cords set with three cut and moulded yellow glass flowerhead shaped beads, 12.5cm wide, with inscribed note of provenance inside dated 1822.Literature - this purse is illustrated in G. Dickinson and Linda Wrigglesworth, Imperial Wardrobe, Bamboo Publishing, 1990, Pl.4, p16.Provenance - by repute presented by the Qianlong Emperor to George Thomas Staunton, the page to Lord Maccartney, Britain’s Ambassador to China from 1792-1794.The event took place on 14 September 1793 at Chengde when Staunton, though only a boy, was the only person able to converse in Chinese other than the interpreter. The Emperor of China gave Sir George Thomas Staunton a silk purse on the occasion, which in turn was given by Staunton to the Royal Asiatic Society in 1856 and appears to have left the collection subsequently.Sir George Thomas Staunton (1781-1859) was one of the founders of the Royal Asiatic Society, and served as its Vice-President, but he is chiefly known as Great Britain’s foremost student of Chinese language and culture during the first half of the nineteenth century. Having accompanied his father on the Macartney Embassy to China while still a boy, Staunton had an early start in the study of Chinese, and by the time he returned to China as a young man to work for the East India Company, he was already more knowledgeable about Chinese than any other of his countrymen.***CONDITION REPORT***Slight fading to the coral satin in places. Some small losses to the black silk wan symbols along the folds. A little grubby around the edges otherwise in good condition. The note written in ink on paper is folded up inside the purse.PLEASE NOTE:- Prospective buyers are strongly advised to examine personally any goods in which they are interested BEFORE the auction takes place.
