William Henry Harriott (British, exh. 1811 - 1837, d. 1839) The Entrance to the Grand Canal, looking East, with Santa Maria della Salute to the right signed and dated "W H Harriott 16 August 1826" to the reverse watercolour with pencil and ink 22.50 x 31.50cm (9 x 12in) Provenance: Abbott and Holder, 30 Museum Street, London WC1A Other Notes: The present sketch is inspired by Canaletto's series of views of the Grand Canal. It is most closely related to Canaletto's large-scale oil depicting the Santa Maria della Salute, which is in the Louvre, Paris.

A wooden scale model of 'Cutty Sark' by Ceuneau Marine of Mauritius, the three masted ship with sails furled and with the Red Ensign flying above the stern, 76cm (30 in) high Other Notes: Cutty Sark is a British clipper ship. Built on the River Clyde in 1869 for the Jock Willis Shipping Line, she was one of the last tea clippers to be built and one of the fastest, coming at the end of a long period of design development, which halted as sailing ships gave way to steam propulsion. Ceuneau Marine was founded in 1990.

A pair of 16th century Gothic Andirons, the capped pillars with hatched decoration, a shield initialled IHS, on gothic arched feet 43 x 25 x 43cm (17 x 10 x 17in) Literature: Shuffrey (L.A), The English Fireplace and Its Accessories, published by Batsford, 1912, p.133, fig.126, Godlington, Kent Notes:Dr Brian Gilmour PhD, Dip Cons, FSA, FCIFA, FRMS, Archaeometallurgy and Archaeology, 20, Squitchey Lane, Oxford OX2 7LB Tel: 01865 552294 Mob: 0776 233 8189 Email: bjjg1243@gmail.com Early metalworking: Technology, analysis and appraisal Work carried out: Detailed assessment Report no: 560 Artefact type/description: Pair of andirons Reference no: RC1 Estimated stylistic date: c 16/17th century AD Report for: Richard Crowther Date: 09-06-2018 Assessment result/recommendation: Acceptance as 16th/17th century Report: See below Introduction, description and preliminary assessment: Fig. 1: Front view of this distinctive pair of andirons The front part of this pair of heavy cast iron andirons consisted in each case of an upper column with a capital of curly ionic form, the rectangular-section columns having diagonal reeded decoration below which was a form of shield with Gothic lettering – possibly IM – on either side of which projected two solid, curved, rectangular section Gothic style feet (fig. 1). The surface of each andiron had a pitted and worn appearance consistent with probable long use. Height: 28cms Depth (front to back): 43cm Analytical examination by metallography: A small sample was taken from the foot of one of the andirons and this was mounted and prepared for metallographic analysis. The aim of this was to look at the structure of the cast iron to determine whether this was consistent either with a 16th or 17th century origin as suggested by the style or a 19th century reproduction, these being the two likely alternatives. Fig. 2: View showing a ‘mottled’ cast iron structure with characteristic dark ‘rosettes’ graphite dispersed amongst a hypo-eutectic white cast iron matrix with a clear (fir tree-like) dendritic structure visible between the rosettes (scale x75 as shown here). Fig. 3: Detailed view of the same structure showing the flake structure of the graphite rosettes and the ladder-like dendrites in between (Magnification x300). Metallographic results: The structure visible in section shows that these andirons consist of ‘mottled’ cast iron, a transitional form of cast iron with a matrix which shows up as a white cast iron but which has ‘rosettes’ of graphite scattered through the structure, graphite being typical of an incipient form of grey cast iron. Thus the metal is a transitional form of cast iron with characteristics of both a white cast iron, where the carbon present has not had time to transform to graphite, and a grey cast iron where most of the carbon present has transformed to graphite during the solidification process. In white cast iron – as in the matrix here – the carbon in the metal is mostly present in chemically combined forms which make the metal much harder and more brittle. The dendritic dispersion visible is a phenomenon typical in a hypo-eutectic white cast iron, one with a carbon content between about 3.0 and 3.5%. Discussion and conclusion: When a cast iron cools and solidifies it can form either an all white cast iron structure, if the cooling rate is rapid enough, or a grey cast iron if the cooling rate is slow enough. There is a third possibility which is that it can form an intermediate ‘mottled’ form as we see in the case of these andirons, this being the consequence of an intermediate cooling rate. The cooling rate is clearly affected by the bulk volume of an iron casting and we can expect this to be more or less the same for any particular bulk of casting. The cooling rate – in terms of what type of cast iron (white or grey) results can also be affected or controlled by other elements present in the metal, such as silicon and sulphur, and these are a reflection of the cast iron production (smelting) process being used at any particular time. Smelting conditions changed during the development of the Industrial Revolution and the consequence of this is that ‘mottled’ cast iron is the most typical form of cast iron found in castings such as andirons and fire-backs of the 16th and 17th centuries. By the 19th century the smelting processes had changed and castings of this kind are almost always found to be made of grey cast ion. In the case of the andirons studied here the general appearance and worn nature of the andirons and their structure indicate them to be intact surviving examples of 16th/17th century production, probably from the Weald of the Sussex/Kent border region.

There are two stress fractures to the bottom right hand side but no timber loss. The sides of the case and grilles are in generally good order.

When in place there is only a very small 4 mm square section missing. The rear door is in good order. The movement as stated appears to be operating it is however fairly dirty. We have an incorrect winding key. There are various small unimportant veneer stress fractures to the domed top.
