’Rory’ a 1920s Steiff teddy bear, with golden mohair, brown and black glass eyes, pronounced muzzle, replaced black stitching, swivel head, jointed elongated limbs with replaced felt pads, hump, growler and underscored FF button in ear —18 1/2in. (47cm.) high (patch to tip of muzzle, front bald spots and fairly worn)Jeanette Paros by her son Mark -Mum came with me in 1972-1974 to a junk shop in Harrow where I spent my pocket money on walking sticks, cut glass, silver and coronation mugs. She   bought the odd plate and other things and when I decided to sell my collection in about 1978 she took me to antique fairs in Bushy and Borehamwood   where we would had a stall.  She then started buying general antiques including boxes and small furniture and took a stand in Gray's Mews Antique   Market from 1979 -1981 which we shared.  She had a few antique dolls then and in 1982 moved to Camden Passage and took a unit in the basement (called 'The Vaults' )  which we shared; she specialised more and more in dolls and toys. She then had an opportunity in about 1989 to have an outdoor shop by Islington Green. She called her business Jeannette Dolls Galore.  She started to sell teddy bears there too and stayed there until around 1996.  After that she did fairs and specialised by this time more in teddy bears.  After that she concentrated on her website which was called 'Jeannette Teddies Galore' and also sold bears at fairs.  She was a very successful teddy bear dealer and at one time sold about ten or more large early Steiffs in one year and had regular customers from Russian, Japan, Germany, America and many other places. She was also good at restoring and wrote articles on bears for antique magazines.  She always wore trendy clothes and made lovely displays at the fairs.  Her career was put to an end when, sadly, she had a stroke last June.

MAZZOTTA; oil on canvas, coastal landscape with figures preparing boats, signed, 40 x 65cm, in period gilt frame. Although clearly signed by Mazzotta, we are unable to find out anything about this artist but the style is very much of the late 19th century Dutch artists such as Hendrick Willem Mesdag. Provenance: this painting is on the market for the first time in around 100 years.Additional InformationThe back of the painting is sealed so we are unable to inspect the reverse but there is a patch to the top right. The surface is very dirty. There are a few paint blemishes and a light craquelure throughout. The frame has numerous small losses throughout and some old repairs.

A 19th century Hamadan rug with three central conjoined lozenge shaped medallions with a device set blue ground main rectangular panel with shaped corner spandrels and within a triple set stylised border, 183  x 148cm.Additional InformationThere is a patch to one section visible from the top which is approx  15 x 4cm. As this is an antique rug there are signs of wear throughout certainly to the edges and to the colour in part, thread coming through in some areas but all wear commensurate with age.

A late 17th/early 18th century Indo-Portuguese ebony and ivory inlaid cabinet on stand, the moulded top with recessed geometric line inlaid section with matching side panel set with brass carrying handles and twin doors set with panels of intricate inlay and engraved brass lock plates revealing an arrangement with central cupboard door, three 'secret' inner side drawers and an arrangement of eleven further drawers, all with inlaid detail and moulded beading, mounted on a later simple ebonised stand, the cabinet height 48cm, width 66cm, depth 35.5cm, the stand height 70.5cm.Additional InformationThe top of the cabinet has faded somewhat in sunlight and is slightly rippled. There are vertical splits to both side panels, as can be seen in the photographs. There are also some minor losses around the lower plinth where this sits onto the stand. There is an old patch repair to the top left hand corner of the right hand door and also to the lower left hand corner of the right hand door. A very thin sliver repair to the upper section of the left hand door. The inside of the left hand door is slightly paler than the right hand door. There are several fine cracks through the veneer to the inner drawers. The drawers are lined with paper, some of which has been replaced. The stand has some losses. Brass front plates are later additions. Overall a good example. The brass plates have been added fairly recently, judging by the way they have been attached.

[EGYPT]: PALMER EDWARD HENRY (1840-1882) English Orientalist & Explorer. A fine illustrated A.L.S., with his initials EHP, seven pages, 8vo, Wady Mugharak, Desert at El-Tih, 22nd July 1882, to a friend ('My dear old pal'). Palmer writes a lengthy and informative letter describing the conditions in the desert ('This is not nice - thermometer at about 110 in shade') and remarking that he rode for eight hours a day for seven consecutive days, further writing 'Then again Arabs are such a nuisance - for instance this morning some…..made a little gentle raid on us & appropriated some camels - they conveniently avoided waking me from my forenoon siesta as they did not come so far up the valley - but the sheikh & most of the men have gone off on the war track thirsting for blood & I & my man Bokhar & two or three ageds & youngs will have to do any fighting that may be necessary till they come back. This country is not exactly what you would call in a truthful spirit safe just now. I have had to dodge troops & Arabs & Lord knows what & am thankful but somewhat surprised at the possession of a whole skin. The pleasing part of my present journey has yet to come - I have somehow to dodge the Egyptian sentries…..You see if they, the Egyptians [rebels] get hold of me there will be but short shrift for me as I shall undoubtedly be shot. This business has its anxieties but I feel quite calm about it…..Many thanks for the revolver, it is a charming little weapon…..I have armed my man with yours, but it is a most useful addition to my small arsenal. I could get no one to come with me at first - people said it was dangerous - but at last I managed to engage a Jew!.....He speaks a little Italian too so that I can curse without my Arab friends understanding…..I have thus far succeeded in my preliminary run through the desert beyond my wildest hopes, but it was often risky opening the game. For instance when I made certain propositions to the big Boss of these parts he replied sententiously “Ahmed Pasha Arabi is with the Muslims - you belong to our enemies”……They tried to bustle me one day - about 40 Arabs rode up to me while I was halting at midday & brought their camels to a standstill on their knees with one simultaneous motion & then jumped off & ran to me. But I spotted my friend the sheikh whom I had seen before & simply addressed him by name & asked him to sit down & smoke a cigarette which he did…..What a game it all is! How I long for the cool smoking room at the Savile & the cooler drinks…..I dread the 3 or 4 days march to Suez as it gets hotter the further south one goes……I am now 2 days from Suez & before the 3rd sun sets shall be either within reach of beer & baths or be able to dispense altogether with those luxuries for the future. The very equally balanced probabilities lend & certain zest to the journey…..My man stole some melons from a patch near some water…..& I feel better for the crime. Still I am dried up & burnt & thirsty & bored…..Just got into Suez safe! 24 hours consecutive travelling & have only had a piece of bread for 15 hours - no sleep. Mail just going out. Au revoir'. To the final page of the letter Palmer has drawn a small sketch of himself riding a camel through the desert. A letter of remarkable content, written just a few weeks before his murder. Some light overall age wear, a few minor stains and small areas of paper loss, G In 1882 Palmer had been instructed by the government to assist the Egyptian expedition, owing to his influence over the Arabs of the El-Tih desert, and was required to prevent the Arab sheikhs from joining the Egyptian rebels and to secure their non-interference with the Suez Canal. As the present letter illustrates, Palmer successfully made his way safely through the desert to Suez. Appointed interpreter-in-chief to the force in Egypt, Palmer was again sent into the desert from Suez to procure camels and gain the allegiance of the sheikhs with considerable gifts of money. It was during this mission that Palmer and his two companions were led into an ambush and murdered.
