A fine Dutch engraved armorial light baluster 'Admiralty' wine glass attributed to Jacob Sang, circa 1760 The round funnel bowl finely decorated with the crowned arms of the Admiraliteit van het Noorderkwartier (Admiralty of West Friesland), the shaped shield containing crossed anchors and the letters 'A N', flanked by martial trophies including flags, drums and neat piles of cannonballs, the stem with an angular knop above a beaded inverted baluster and basal knop, over a conical foot, 18.4cm high Footnotes: Provenance Dwight Lanmon Collection, Bonhams, 21 June 2022, lot 128 Private British Collection This fine glass has much in common with the small number of other recorded Admiraliteit glasses, some of which are attributed to the celebrated Dutch engraver Jacob Sang. Indeed, the style of the engraving is remarkably similar to that on a glass signed by Sang and dated 1759, formerly in the Guépin Collection sold by Christie's on 5 July 1989, lot 127, which bears the arms of Leiden. This features polished crossed keys also on a matt ground beneath a crown, all executed in the same manner as the armorial on the present glass. A similar glass bearing the initials 'A A' for the Admiralty at Amsterdam, also attributed to Sang, is illustrated by Pieter C Ritsema van Eck and Henrica M Zijlstra-Zweens, Glass in the Rijksmuseum, Vol.2 (2002), p.209, no.220. Another for this Admiralty bearing the arms of the Seven United Provinces is illustrated by Hubert Vreeken, Glas in Het Amsterdams Historisch Museum (1998), p.200, no.196. See also Lot 101 in this sale for an example with the initials 'P P P'. The present glass would appear to be the only recorded Admiraliteit glass bearing the initials 'A N'. Saleroom notices: Please note that this glass is inscribed '6+' or '+9' in diamond-point on the pontil scar. For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
