Lot 238
Ca. 1200-1300 AD. A silver gilt Corpus Christi is an exquisite representation of the crucified Christ and a testament to the skill and craftsmanship of the Limoges artisans who created it. The figure of Christ is depicted with his arms outstretched, pierced by nails, and a cloth wrapped around his hips. The face of Christ is finely detailed, with a look of agony that suggests the suffering he endured for humanity. The Limoges style is characterized by its intricate, delicate details, and this piece is no exception. The Limoges region of France was known for its exquisite enamel work and metalworking, and this silver gilt Corpus Christi is a perfect example of their skill. The gilt finish gives the piece a radiant glow, while the intricate details of the figure add depth and dimension to the work.Size: L:63.2mm / W:60.8mm ; 27gProvenance: From the private collection of an Essex gentleman; previously in an old British Collection, formed in the 1990s on the UK / European art markets.
Lot 292
Ca. 1200-1350 AD. A shield-shaped horse harness pendant with a straight upper edge, a central hinged hanger, and convex sides meeting at a point at the bottom. The obverse is embellished with a heraldic emblem on a field of red enamel, which has since worn off over the years. These decorative pieces of metal were used to adorn a horse's harness and provided both decorative and practical benefits. Decoratively, they were used to enhance the appearance of the horse, often made of materials such as copper, bronze, silver, and gold. In addition, they were also used to denote the horse's owner, providing a way to identify the horse and its rider.Size: L:55mm / W:35mm ; 20gProvenance: Private London collector, acquired on the UK Art market, pre-2000.

The 1931 Olympia Motor Cycle Show Model 1931 Brough Superior 1,000cc SS100Registration no. GW 3188Frame no. 1042 SEngine no. JTO/Y 13901/S•Enhanced 'show' finish•Substantially known ownership history•Present enthusiast ownership since 1973•Highly original (matching registration, frame, engine, gearbox)This Brough Superior SS100, with spring frame number '1042 S', was first registered on 31st January 1931 and is recorded in the factory records as a 'Show Model'. 'Show' meant an enhanced finish, the mudguards being chromed with a gold-lined black centre, just like the wheels. A letter from George Brough Ltd, signed by General Manager T E Ball, states that the machine 'was despatched from the Works on January 2nd 1932 to Messrs Rowland Smith Motors Ltd, and was a SS100 Spring Frame which had been prepared for the 1932 Show' (it is assumed he meant the 1931 show). Interestingly, the frame number is only a single digit distant from T E Lawrence's final Brough, 'GW 2275'. The copy Works Record Card shows that '1042' was originally built as a motorcycle combination ('specialist coach on Watsonian chassis') and that it left the factory with a chromium plated/black enamel fuel tank, and with mudguards and wheels having the same 'show' finish. Castle (Brampton) forks were fitted, as was a separate oil tank among various other special features (see 'Remarks'). The Record Card confirms all matching numbers with the exception of the fuel tank ('R2465'), which is from the 1932 SS100 'R1044' (non-surviving). Interestingly, this is the only known Brough to have a gearbox number prefixed 'P 156'. Brough Superior Club records show that 'GW 3188' was present at the inaugural Brough Superior Club Rally, held in September 1958 at Hearsall Common, Coventry while owned by Ronald Richardson of London N8. By this time the Brough had been fitted with a later AGS petrol tube sidecar. The accompanying old-style buff logbook (issued 1954) list the owner at that time as one Frederick Elkington of Bromley Kent, who had acquired it in 1947. The current owner (5th change in the aforementioned logbook) is a former Vickers aircraft engineer who worked for 24 years on the Concorde project. He bought 'GW 3188' (registered as a 'sidecar bicycle') from his friend Sid Mason in April 1973 for £150 (purchase receipts on file). Sid Mason had bought the machine for £75 in 1963. Reflecting on his purchase some years ago, the current vendor said: 'I was all too aware of the SS100's notoriety, especially as I worked as an aircraft engineer for Vickers, which was located at the historic Brooklands race circuit where in 1939 an SS100 took the all-time track record of 124.51mph. It's more of a show-piece for me now and used only on special occasions. However, when I do give it a blast it still remains somewhat frightening and exhilarating - both at the same time! I love it on many levels: looks, engineering, performance and heritage.' The Brough was last used some 30 years ago but still starts second kick. Recommissioning, or possibly more extensive restoration, will be required before it returns to the road. The 'show' finish is still there, albeit beneath a protective layer of black paint applied by the vendor.Footnotes:All lots are sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
