Lot 953
Carved ivory plaque depicting the Descent from the Cross scene with The Virgin of Sorrows, pierced by sword being comforted by Saint John, Mary Magdalene and putti at the feet of Christ and crying Angels in heavenProbably Northern Europe, late 17th century Bronze stand frame and applied chiselled silver elements representing symbols of The Passion of Christ crowned at the top by two reclining angels flanking a label inscribed "INRI"Italy, 17th/18th century(losses and faults)Like amber and coral, elephant ivory is one of the few organic raw materials that was privileged in the competition with more precious materials, of entirely mineral origin, such as precious stones and noble metals. Its origin in distant places, durability and solidity, as well as its exoticism, identified in the whiteness and smooth texture, contribute to be appreciated throughout the human history. Most of these works were made for customers and collectors, who delighted in the rarity of the material and the quality of the sculpture. The integrity of the piece that we now present, is justified by the link that exists between the ivory relief (where the Descent from the Cross is represented) and the silver frame (decorated with the instruments of the Passion of Christ), the latter of which may have been executed for the first.This excellent example is very similar to another that we found in the collection of the Victoria & Albert Museum in London (A.30-1949). This same attributed to the German artist Balthasar Permoser (1651-1732). Without knowing for sure the iconographic font used by the artist, it is possible to identify some works that, hypothetically, will have served as a reference for a composition on this theme.As an example, we identified the altarpiece of the main altar in the chapel of the Monte di Pietà palace in Rome, made by the sculptor Domenico Guidi (1625-1701).17x10,5 cm (marfim)40x28 cm (total)

Lot 24
A fine ivory silk and embroidered coverlet, possibly England, Spitalfields, mid-18th century, worked in coloured and metallic threads, the rectangular field with central abundant basket of flowers, including tulips, roses and peonies, flanked by borders with further baskets, swags and entwined exotic flowers, palm trees and sheaves of wheat, with conforming side panels, quilted overall, embellished with tassel trim, bearing a paper label for the PANTECHNICON BELGRAVE SQUARE, stamped THE DUKE OF LEEDS, linen backed, approximately 263 x 260cmThe present coverlet may originate from the renowned silk workshops of Spitalfields. Spitalfields became the centre of the silk industry after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes by Louis XIV of France in 1685, which resulted in many French protestants fleeing to escape persecution for their religion, and settling in England. They brought with them the knowledge of their trades, including silk weaving, and set up their workshops in Spitalfields and surrounding areas, soon attracting demand from both London's aristocracy and burgeoning merchant classes for dress and furnishing fabrics.The present coverlet shares stylistic similarities with the abundant floral designs of the mid-18th century. A circa 1752-3 dress ascribed to the Spitalfields workshops, designed for 'Lady Mayoress' Ann Fanshawe now in the Museum of London features similarly rich brocade in metal thread as well as an arrangement of wheat sheaves.The clustered arrangement of flowers can also be likened to the designs of Anna-Maria Garthwaite (1690-1763), whose botanical studies in watercolour provided patterns for the most fashionable fabrics. Note for example her watercolour design for a woven silk fabric in the collection of the V&A (Inv. No. 5977:1), which shows similar incorporation of exotic plant and fruit specimens (as with the palm tree-like stems in the present lot). The Pantechnicon, for which the lot bears a tag, was a large repository for luxury goods in Belgravia, functioning in part as a picture retailer and furniture merchant, and as a storage warehouse. It was mostly destroyed by fire in 1874, just over thirty years after its opening around 1830. The stamped title on the label may indicate that this coverlet was once property of the Dukes of Leeds, whose seats during the 18th and 19th century included Kiveton Hall until its demolition in 1812, and Hornby Castle. Various sales of property from the Duke of Leeds' collection were held in London at Christie's and Sotheby's during the 1920s and 1930s, and it is possible that the present lot left their possession during this time. Condition Report: While the silk embroidery to the central field and some of the side sections is still exceptionally vibrant in colour and well preserved, the textile would require conservation/professional attention.There are losses and damages to the edges of the central field and side panels, where the layers of embroidery, stuffing and threads have come away or undone, or have torn. The silk ground is quite worn and in areas the woolly stuffing underneath shows through.Areas of gold and metal thread have retained some of their lustre.Condition Report Disclaimer

Lot 1006
A 19th century ivory brass and copper monocular opera glass, diameter 64 mm, and a late 19th century ivory carved nude female figure, height 13 cm. CONDITION REPORT: The figure does not have any damage, repairs or losses. It does however have numerous stress fractures to the ivory and is very dirty. The monocular glass has a small edge chip to the ivory on the viewing side. The main body has numerous stress fractures to the ivory but no movement. The copper draw is very loose in the mount and there maybe something missing from the interior of the scope. There is only the eyepiece lens and end lens and nothing in the middle. Whilst the piece does focus it does not seem to magnify. Both lenses appear to be in good order.
