A Staffordshire toby jug of Enoch Wood-typecirca 1800of 'ordinary' type, seated, holding foam quart of ale and a pipe, on marbled base, 24cm highCondition report: There is some minor paint flaking to the hat, predominantly near the front interior brim, and also some further flaking to the feet. Further loss to the paint is visible on the handle and to one button on the blue coat.There is a small chip to the very end of the pipe's handle and a very small knock to one corner of the base, which has resulted in some glaze and paint loss. Otherwise, no further signs of any damages or any repairs/restoration.
Two Staffordshire toby jugscirca 1820of 'ordinary type', modelled seating holding a plain brown salt glaze jug and a foaming quart of ale, one with marbled base,25cm high (2)Condition report: The earlier example with purple base is badly cracked to both the base and also the rear of the main body, near the handle. The paint is generally pretty tired in areas - e.g. there is rubbing to the handle, coat, feet and the base - but the decoration to the face appears generally good. The pipe to one side of his feet is also restored, this has been done quite well but there is a noticeable colour difference. Jug with marbled base - Glaze flake to the rear, just to the lower left side of the handle. Lots of wear to the black enamel around the brim of his hat and further losses to paint around the jug and his feet. Crazing evident all over. No obvious signs of any repairs. There is a glaze fault visible to the section of the base just below his foot. There is also a crack visible to the interior, but this appears to be a firing fault.

A fine Great War D.S.C. group of four awarded to Gunner, later Lieutenant-Commander, F. Grinney, Royal Navy, who was decorated for his gallant part in the celebrated ‘Swift and Broke’ action of April 1917; he saw further service during the Second World War and died in service on 8 February 1944 Distinguished Service Cross, G.V.R., hallmarks for London 1916, the reverse contemporarily engraved ‘F. Grinney, H.M.S. Broke. 21.4.17’; 1914-15 Star (Gnr. F. Grinney. R.N.); British War and Victory Medals (Gnr. F. Grinney. R.N.) mounted as worn, very fine (4) £1,800-£2,200 --- D.S.C. London Gazette 10 May 1917: ‘Awards for services in the action between H.M. Ships Swift and Broke and German destroyers on the night of 20th - 21st April 1917 ... Gnr. (T.) Frederick Grinney, R.N. (”Broke”) gave orders for the firing of the torpedo which struck one of the enemy destroyers.’ Of the events on the night of 20-21 April, Taffrails’ Endless Story recounts: ‘The vessels on both sides were now a blaze of gun-flashes, which made it very difficult to see what was happening, and Peck, in the Swift, was temporarily blinded by the flame of the 6-inch gun on the forecastle. Losing sight of the enemy for several seconds, and now travelling at full speed, he passed astern of the German line, though not before firing a torpedo at the fifth ship in the opposing line, which probably took effect. Altering course out of the wake of the Swift, Evans, in the Broke, held his fire for a moment to bring the sights of the torpedo director on the bridge on their target. Despard, the First Lieutenant, actually fired it, and after an interval it, or the Swift’s torpedo, fired at much the same time, struck the fifth ship in the enemy line full amidships, to explode in an upheaval of smoke and whitened spray which glowed redly in the blaze of gun-flashes. Both sides were steaming fast. Things were happening in seconds, and once more the Broke’s foremost guns had opened fire. Evans had been steering to ram; but, seeing the ship he was aiming for - G. 85 - struck by the torpedo, realised it was now unnecessary, put his helm to port, and swung outwards for a few seconds to give himself room to swing back again and ram the destroyer astern of G. 85. “If you put the helm over now, sir, you’ll get this next one all right, sir,” said Hickman, the Broke’s navigator, to his captain, who himself was conning the ship. Under heavy fire, and in a coruscation of gun-flashes and the sparkle and smoke of exploding shells, Evans put his helm over and drove straight for his enemy at 27 knots. There was hardly time to breathe, let alone to think coherently. The German, G. 42, increased speed, smoke and showers of sparks pouring from her funnels as she strove to escape. But it was too late. With a grinding thud, and the screech of tearing steel, the Broke’s bow crashed into her opponent’s port side abreast the after funnel. The terrific impact hurled the German practically over on her beam-ends as the Broke’s ram pushed her bodily through the water. It is impossible to describe the sensations of those on board both these ships as the collision occurred - the Broke’s grimly triumphant; the Germans filled with terror-stricken amazement and horror. It was a dreadful moment; but worse was yet to come. Man were screaming and shouting for help as the Broke’s guns, at their maximum depression, pumped shell after shell at a few yards’ range into the mass of men huddled on the deck of her stricken enemy. One of the German’s torpedo-tubes had stuck into the Broke’s side and was torn off its mounting. The anti-aircraft 2-pounders added to the din with their stuttering uproar, while the British seamen that remained alive in the forepart of the ship, with rifles and fixed bayonets, and revolvers and naked cutlasses, headed by Mr. Midshipman Donald Gyles, R.N.R., already wounded by a shell splinter in the eye, swarmed forward on to the Broke’s forecastle to repel boarders. They were taking no chances. No quarter was given. Every German who clambered over the bows was shot or bayoneted. A deadly small-arm fire was poured from the forecastle into the terrified men on G. 42’s deck. Even the officers on the Broke’s bridge used their automatic pistols. Few of their enemies survived the storm of lead and nickel. But the Broke did not escape unpunished. When things were happening every second, it is impossible to describe events in their strict chronological sequence; but early in the action, which cannot have lasted more than a few minutes, a shell explosion on the forecastle had hurled a box of 4-inch cartridges into the air to scatter them round about the bridge, where they burnt with the fierce red glow and leaping flames of consuming cordite. She was also blazing amidships. Illuminated like a beacon, she made a conspicuous target. A hostile destroyer slammed in salvo after salvo until she disappeared into the night. It was nearly impossible to miss at so short a range. In the space of a few moments the Broke was converted into a smoking shambles. In places, her decks were literally running in blood. She sustained 57 casualties, of whom 21 were killed outright, and no part of the ship was immune. Two shells had hit the bridge structure, to kill a signalman, and seriously to wound the helmsman and a man at the engine-room telegraphs. But the former, Able Seaman William George Rawles, who afterwards received the Conspicuous Gallantry Medal for his bravery, continued to steer the ship until G. 42 had been rammed. Then he collapsed from loss of blood. Many casualties had occurred among the guns’ crews of the forecastle through two enemy shells, one of which had detonated projectiles in a ready rack. All the electric cables and voice-pipes from the bridge had been shot away, while the after compass, after wireless-room, and searchlight were demolished. The foremost funnel was pierced through and through by splinters until it resembled a huge nutmeg-grater. A shell passing in through the side above the waterline had penetrated a coal-bunker, to explode in the boiler-room beyond, killing or wounding every man in the compartment and severing the main steam-pipe, from which the steam escaped with a deafening roar. And, besides the damage from enemy shell, the British flotilla-leader had a badly bent and crumpled bow, and two huge gashes forward above the waterline. Dead and wounded lay everywhere. With her bows locked in G. 42, she still steamed ahead, her speed gradually diminishing. Every man in sight on the German’s deck had been killed or wounded. Her stern portion was gradually sinking. Finally it disappeared altogether as the Broke ground her way clear. For a time Evans and his officers thought their ship was about to sink; but, once clear of G. 42, they set about trying to inflict further damage upon the flying enemy. Two were still in sight, one ahead and one to starboard, with the Swift in chase, long flames pouring from the funnels of all three as they steamed at full speed. But the Broke’s speed was dropping fast, and presently an engineer-officer arrived on the bridge with the sad news that the loss of feed-water was so great that she could not steam more than half-speed. He also pointed out that the ship must eventually come to a standstill. Evans accordingly turned and steamed slowly back towards the two sinking destroyers. About a mile from the spot, they passed through a number of German seamen in the water, who cried “Save! Save!” But at any moment the enemy might return to continue the fight. The Broke could not affo...

THE PRIVATE PROPERTY OF A NOBLE ITALIAN LADYA LADY'S GOLD AND DIAMOND 'TUBOGAS' BRACELET WATCH, BY BULGARI & MOVADO, CIRCA 1965The 17-jewel manual wind movement, the silvered blue dial with baton indexes for numerals, circular case with brilliant-cut diamond bezel, snap back, completed by an 18K gold flexible coiled Tubogas bracelet, bracelet signed Bvlgari, dial signed Bulgari & Movado, movement signed Movado.By the 1960s, the Tubogas watch-bracelets which Bulgari had produced in individualised designs since the 1940s had become a staple of the brand. Initially, brothers Constantino and Giorgio were not alone in experimenting with the ‘tubogas’ style when the technique first emerged in Italy, but no other jewellers captured the essence of the snake-like style quite so well as Bulgari. While other jewellers had abandoned the gas pipe inspired-look by the 1950s, Bulgari soon monopolised the creation of all Tubgogas designs, grounded in the jeweller’s master craftsmen who excelled at the dexterous, coiled and contoured technique. Thus, the Bulgari watch paired with a coiled gold Tubogas bracelet became immensely popular and has since become an instantly recognisable Bulgari look.Since the 1960s, renditions of the Tubogas watch have starred on covers and in features in magazines all over the world. Sophia Loren sported the watch on the red carpet, and celebrities followed suit over the next few decades; singer Grace Jones was snapped wearing the watch at parties during the early 80s. And in the 2006 hit, Meryl Streep acted as editor in chief of a fashion magazine, wearing none other than the Bulgari Tubogas.Condition Report: Glass: Normal signs of wear given the age - could do with a replacement but not inevitableBracelet: Normal signs of wear Case: Normal signs of wearNo box, no papersIn running condition at the time of inspection, movement was observed to be cleanTotal gross weight approx. 141.40gAn external watch specialist who verifies each watch prior to each auction in order to open them, checks their working condition, mentions any potential damage, mentions any movement ref numbers etc...For any additional assistance, please
