A rare Arts and Crafts silver seven-piece 'Country Range' tea and coffee service, and a twin-handle tray,maker's mark for Johnson, Walker & Tolhurst Ltd., London 1904, signed 'L. Movio, 1904',the kettle on stand and hot water pot, maker's mark Godfrey, Bell & Godfrey Ltd., London 1920, signed 'L. Movio',each piece of baluster form with spot hammered surfaces, chased with bands of entwined flower blooms and leafy stems in high relief, a dog rose with thorny stems, poppy, nasturtium and sweet pea, comprising:a teapot,coffee pot,two-handled sugar bowl, andcream jug,the large two-handled tray depicting each of these four flowers to each quarter section of the border,later kettle on stand and hot water pot, chased with convolvulus, blackberries, pots with ivory insulators,tray 75.5cm, kettle 33cm high, 288ozt (7)Provenance: From the private collection and descendant of a past owner of Johnson, Walker & Tolhurst, who purportedly originally commissioned the service.The facsimile signature of Latino Movio (1858-1949) has been noted on chased and embossed Arts and Crafts silver pieces hallmarked between 1901 and 1907.Although very few details about his life and work have come to light, he appears in the 1911 census as an Italian 'artist in metal repoussé'. His son and daughter are recorded living in the same house as a 'brass finisher and chaser' and 'art metal teacher' respectively.Given the style of his work and the date when his signature begins to appear on silver, it seems probable that he was employed in the workshop of Gilbert Marks, whose output ceased around 1902 because of illness. Further weight is lent to this argument by the fact that Movio's facsimile signature turns up on items bearing the 'maker's mark' of Johnson, Walker & Tolhurst for whom Marks worked and at whose showrooms he exhibited his silver from 1895 to 1901. A likely scenario is that Movio continued to work for them (as well as for other retailers) on his own account after leaving the employ of Marks, applying his own signature in the same style. Movio last appears as a 'chaser' in a 1934 trade directory.Condition report: There are stains to the interior of the teapot, coffee pot and kettle. There are no boxes. There are surface scratches and knocks to all pieces with heavier dents to the teapot, kettle and cream jug. Some rims misshapen.
