Ltd., one silver-gilt ball deficient, fitted leather case by Hunt & Roskell Ltd. inscribed 'Countess of Craven' on lid 10cm high Provenance: Cornelia, Countess of Craven (1877-1961) Gifted to the current owner's mother by Thomas Craven, 7th Earl of Craven (1957-1983) Sale; Bonhams, 11 March, 2009, lot 95, £6000 Cornelia, Countess of Craven, was born in New York in 1877 - the daughter and heiress of Bradley and Cornelia Martin who were famous for throwing perhaps the most ostentatious party in US history - the Bradley-Martin costume ball in the Waldorf Hotel in 1897. New York City was at the end of an economic slump which had begun in 1973 and the ball was supposed to help create economic stimulus for a city which had been mired by a depression since The Panic of 1893. However, days after the ball, it was viciously condemned by the press.In 1893, aged 16, Cornelia Martin married William Craven, 4th Earl of Craven, whom she had met whilst her family were renting Balmacaan, a Scottish highland estate. They lived in Mayfair and Coombe Abbey, Warwickshire - the Craven family estate. This was a match of American wealth to British aristocracy and the Countess accrued an art collection and a fabled 'casket of jewels' reflecting her position in the high society of America and Europe.The present lot was commissioned in 1902 for the Countess. It was amongst her many important jewels, some of which had once belonged to the French crown.William George Robert Craven, 4th Earl of Craven, died in 1921 after a yachting accident when he fell overboard during a race at Cowes Week, and the Countess died in 1961, having moved to another Craven estate, Hamstead Lodge, near Newbury, after her husband's death.
