"The Queen's Cup Ascot 1865": An impressive Victorian silver hand-wrought and cast presentation Royal Ascot,"Elizabethan" or" Francois Premier" (1) - Historismus tankard, by Robert Garrard (II), London 1864, incuse stamped on base R & S Garrard, Panton street, London 1864: finely chased with large bosses and geometric strap-work on a frosted ground, the front boss engraved "The Gift of Her Majesty The Queen, Ascot 1865", the finely detailed cast finial formed as St Thomas of Aquitaine with his page attendants either side, with his gauntlet on the floor, cornucopia handle issuing out of lion's mouth, the whole raised on four cast bulbous cartouche ball feet, on an octagonal plinth applied with two open-work Royal ciphers, and two cartouches - engraved as follows - "The Queen's vase 1865" the other "Won by Eltham", height of cup 58.4cm, over 215 troy ounces weight. Foot note:- An illustration for this prize cup appears in the "The London Illustrated News -" June 1865, Vol XLVI. There were four runners, with betting about even on Mr Robinson's Eltham, the favourite, ridden by S.Adams. The Times reported on the race as follows, "Breeze, owned by Baron Rothschild, was first out: Eltham rushed past him and carried on running round the top turn, when Adams indulged him with a pull, and Breeze was, in consequence, left in the lead, which carried on into the Swinley Mile Bottom. On reaching the mile post, the pair closed and raced together to the road, where the Baron's filly drew slightly away, and came into the straight half a length in advance of the favourite, the pair having the race to themselves at the distance... within a stride or two of the chair (Eltham) came with a rush, and finished a splendid race with a dead heat". 1- This mode of decoration was chiefly characterised by its use of heavy strapwork around cartouches in the 19th century, and was favoured in racing cups. CONDITION REPORT: The overall condition is very good, and the colour is bright + refreshed. The detailing is exceptionally crisp. Hallmarks: The full set and part marks on the separate figures, reins and cover are all clear. Please note the figure seated on the floor in front of the horse, the part marks are not visible to the naked eye. Points of note: There are two wing-nuts lacking, these hold the seated figure in place. To the hinge cover where the thumb-piece is soldered there is a small fault (a split), also there is another casting fault, this one is on the domed base and again near the thumb-piece, a small hole. A third, small hole, can be seen in the edge of a cartouche in the decoration. Base is a replacement and is in good order as are the four silver plaques - engraving crisp.
