After Bernard Lens III, an ivory miniature mourning ring, 18th century, centring on a glazed ivory miniature commonly identified as Mary, Queen of Scots, within a border of woven gold thread, to openwork shoulders and a fluted band, mounted in gold, size O1/2, miniature 1.3 x 1.0cmCf.: a portrait miniature in the Royal Collection, RCIN 420113, for an early example of this portrait by Bernard Lens III (1682-1740). It was reproduced many times by Lens on the order of his patron, the 4th Duke of Hamilton, who had discovered the original portrait and identified it as Mary, Queen of Scots - a fashionable and romantic historical figure, viewed sympathetically among his contemporaries at the courts of Queen Anne and George I. The true identity of the figure, however, is unknown, and is more likely to be Mary Bellenden, later the Duchess of Argyll (c.1690-1735).
λ Karl-August Schreinzer (1819-1897), a portrait miniature, gold and diamond bracelet, mid 19th century, the clasp set with an oval miniature on ivory reputedly depicting the engineer Charles Baird (1766-1843), within a border of cushion-shaped diamonds, to a bracelet composed of gold cylindrical links engraved to the front with Rococo-style scroll work, bracelet length 18.3cm, portrait miniature 4.2 x 3.2cm excluding frame, fitted case, portrait miniature signed Schreinzer
λ A pair of Royal portrait miniature rings, Portugal, circa 1785, each of elongated rectangular outline, containing an ivory miniature of Dom João, later King John VI of Portugal (1767-1826) and his mother, Queen Maria I of Portugal (1734-1816), each outlined with cushion-shaped diamonds, mounted in silver and gold, each size M, miniatures measuring approximately 3.0 x 1.9cm, original fitted presentation caseIt is possible that these rings were made around 1785 or shortly after, possibly as a diplomatic or personal gift, as the young prince can be seen wearing the Order of the Golden Fleece, bestowed upon him on the occasion of his marriage into the Spanish royal family that year, to the Infanta Carlota Joaquina of Spain. The two figures also wear the early green and red sash of the Three Military Orders, the design of which was changed in 1796. In 1788, Dom João's older brother Dom José died of smallpox, and Dom João became heir to the Portuguese throne. He took over from his mother as regent in 1799, and succeeded to the throne in 1816. The portrait of the Dom João is possibly an embellished version of a painting by Giuseppe Troni, a copy of which can be seen in the British Royal Collection, ref. RCIN 406047, and the portrait of Queen Maria is based on a painted likeness of her dated to circa 1785/6, reproduced by the engraver Gaspar Fróis Machado, a copy of which can be see in the Biblioteca Nacional de Portugal, ref. E. 236 A.
