LMS Silver Ashtray measuring just 3¼" in diameter with 3 indents. Engraved in early LMS style and being hallmarked silver. A quite exquisite item not seen before by us. The hallmark shows that of Elkington & Co., Birmingham and dates the item at 1928/9. It is very doubtful this would not have been used in the Hotels or on ordinary trains.
London & North Western Railway etched glass Carriage Window in original wooden frame. Centrally placed is the Britannia image surrounded by scrollwork and full company name beneath. Around the edge is a floral design, the glass itself measuring 15" x 26¼". Overall size in frame is 21¼" x 30½". The outside of the frame incredibly retains the original L&NWR dark blue paintwork and the small brass strap button is still in place. A quite superb item that was found when a huge clear-out took place many, many years ago at the Royal Corp of Transport's Buller Barracks in Aldershot, Hants. With the military connection, this could well be a surviving artefact from a WWI Ambulance Train.

Jan Van Huysum (1682-1749) Flowers in a terracotta vase on a marble ledge Signed lower left, fecit. 1739 Watercolour on paper stuck down on board, 45.5x32.5cm Provenance. The estate of Siegfried Sassoon (1886-1967) Jan van Huysum was the most accomplished of a family of 18th-century Dutch painters who specialised in highly detailed flowerpieces, painted in oil on copper or wood panel. He is credited with some 240 such paintings, some of them in major collections throughout the world. A number of quite freely handled watercolour drawings also exist which are probably studies of the intended arrangement of the flowers, foliage, terracotta pots, marble table tops, and often a bird's nest, which are typical features of the paintings. However, a handful of highly finished watercolour paintings also exists-two are in the Teylers Museum in Haarlem and one in the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge. One of the Teylers Museum watercolours was the most expensive item in a sale of drawings in 1796. The example in Cambridge has been described in the most recent publication on Van Huysum (see below) as 'meticulously signed and dated in the same manner as a painting, and may be regarded as a work in its own right. ... All this is interesting, because it also shows that Jan van Huysum derived drawings from his paintings, but these were finished watercolour drawings'. It is to this small group of what are described as 'little jewels of craftsmanship, scarcely inferior to the oil paintings' that the remarkable work offered for sale belongs.
