GEORGE III CARVED AND STAINED OAK RELIEF OF THE AGNUS DEI, last quarter 18th century, openwork modelled, the Lamb of God typically portrayed recumbent on the Book of Revelation with seven seals, a Crucifix behind, within a cartouche formed of scrolling foliage, swirled clouds and starburst; later mounted above an associated scrolling foliate carved relief panel, on a red velvet covered wood backplate; the overall dimensions, 68cm high, 103.5cm wide Provenance: Benacre Hall, Suffolk. Sold by Sotheby's in the contents sale of that property on 9th, 10th, 11th May, 2000, lot 1279A Note: An explanatory letter from the Senior Librarian at the Honouable Society of the Middle Temple, in reply to an enquiry by Trevor W Carthew of Benacre, explored the Carthew's connections with that Inn and is included with the lot. Middle Temple adopted the Agnus Dei into its arms some time before 1638, and various members of the Carthew family had been Serjeants-at-Law, Benchers and uncalled members over the years. It is highly probable that the current relief found its way to Benacre with one of these Carthews during one of the various developments or remodellings of the Inn that periodically occur
Lot 728
MAGNIFICENT AND SUBSTANTIAL PRUSSO-POLISH SCULPTED OAK ARMORIAL PANEL, early 19th century, the central shield with recessed relief carved spread eagle holding orb and sceptre beneath a coronet, on a chequered ground beneath a further coronet and helm surmount carved in high relief, beneath a profusion of scrolling and tumbling acanthus leaves flanking a crown, the lion bearers also crowned, a ribbon below with carved military order decorations, all on a rectangular back plate with ogee moulded frame, 150cm high x 190cm wide x 23cm protuberance Note: The arms have been identified as those of the Counts Gurowski, created Counts of Prussia in 1787. It is probable that the armorial was carved in the early part of the 19th century to commemorate the family's most recent noble elevation and was perhaps hung at the palace complex at Trzebiny in west Poland, a Baroque palace built for the Gurowski family in the 17th century. By the mid 19th century the family had fallen from grace and the palace sold to the von Leesen family who presumably removed the armorial at that point

There are no missing stones, but a few have chips or cracks, and the foil backing on some is imperfect; however they have a good polish and the high refractive index ensures plenty of sparkle. The backing is rose metal and the shank yellow metal - both assumed gold - with evident solder at the joins, but though of the same approximate period, may not be original. However the ring is sound and robust - either ready to wear or be displayed in a collection. Gross weight 2.31g. Length of ring head 6.42mm
