Elgin - a very rare Scottish provincial table spoon by William Livingstone of Elgin circa 1720, marked WL (conjoined), ELG (serif above), gothic O, of ribbed Hanoverian pattern with long rat tail to bowl, later engraved script M 20cm long, 2oz Notes: William Livingstone is the among the earliest Elgin silver smiths with work still extant, the only other possible contender being William Scott who is known from circa 1708. Livingstone was the maker of the Communion beakers for Dundurcas Parish (the Kirks of Rothes and Boharm) (see Burn Communion plate p381 for details of the beaker and p523 for details of the maker) . These beakers are marked with the same marks as this spoon, it does not appear he changed his pseudo date letter through his career. Work by this maker is extremely rare and to date only three table spoons and the above communion beakers are recorded, including this example, all in private collections.

Lot 141
Stonehaven - a rare Scottish provincial teaspoon by Alexander Glenny of Stonehaven circa 1840, marked A.G, S, T, O, N, H, N, of Fiddle pattern with chamfered stem, the terminal engraved with conjoined script initials JMF 14.5cm long, 16g Notes: Items of Stonehaven silver that can be confidently ascribed are extremely rare with only a handful known to survive. Other items with similar A.G makers marks and two part stylised thistle / flower punch have previously been tentatively attributed to Glenny in Stonehaven but are still not definitely ascribed. Without further evidence it seems highly unlikely this attribution is correct. Only items with this combination of marks should be considered a definite Stonehaven manufacture As previously stated these are extremely rare and must be considered among the rarest of all Scottish provincial town marks. The only possible rival being Ellon, which at present has slightly fewer pieces recorded. Little is known about Alexander Glenny, he first appears in the Stonehaven census of 1841 and is recorded as a Jeweller aged 35, he is registered as working from a shop in the town High Street. For an en suite masking spoon by John Glenny see lot 142
Lot 168
Dundee - a Scottish provincial punch ladle by David Manson of Dundee, circa 1810, marked DM, pot of lilies, of shaped circular bowl with pouring lip to edge, with Queen Anne halfcrown inset to base, engraved with two views of the hull of 'a man o' war' under construction, tapered stem to part twisted baleen handle with plain finial 37cm long Notes: The engraved scenes to this bowl add an interesting angle to the commission and owner of this piece. The ship building industry and trade to and from Dundee at the period this piece dates from, was a huge part of the area's commercial success. This piece must have been a special commission for somebody connected to the trade in the area.
Lot 228
Glasgow - a scarce George III sugar bowl and cover by Milne & Campbell of Glasgow circa 1765, marked M&C (struck twice), Glasgow town mark, O, of inverted pear shaped bowl chased with shell, scroll and flower head designs, the domed pull off cover with acanthus and flower border and spiraled leaf panel, with bud finial 15.5cm high, total weight 16oz Provenance: ' The Phoenix Collection'. Notes: Early covered sugar bowls are relatively scare in Scottish silver, it appears to have been the fashion to have open examples, it however must be assumed that some of the surviving examples are now lacking their original covers, making this a much rarer survival. The majority of covered sugar bowls of the fifteen recorded are of Edinburgh manufacture with only a small handful known by Glasgow makers. A Sugar bowl by this maker is represented in the National Museum of Scotland Collection Reference: This example illustrated in 'The Compendium of Scottish Silver Vol. II' by R & J Dietert 2007, plate 3 page 35
Lot 231
Glasgow - a pair of late George II, early George III sauceboats by Milne & Campbell of Glasgow, circa 1757-1780, marked M&C, Glasgow town mark, O, of oval outline with shaped scalloped everted rims, the S scroll handles with acanthus terminals, on stepped oval foot rims (2) 20cm wide, 8oz each
Lot 238
Unascribed - a Scottish provincial table spoon marked, E&M, M, O, N, of single struck Fiddle and Thread pattern with engraved initial B in script 22cm long, 2.3oz Notes: It is tempting to attribute this spoon to Emslie and Mollison (1833 - 1838) of Aberdeen it is a rather large leap to do this only as the makers initials match. The M, O & N punches perhaps have some significance to a location of manufacture and the obvious location would be Montrose, this also does not add any weight to the theory of Emslie and Mollison of Aberdeen as they have not been recorded working there.
