ITEMS RELATING TO LT COL SIR HARRY LLEWELLYN CBE comprising a silver commemorative easel plaque with portrait of 'Foxhunter' and inscribed 'Horse and Hound - 21st July 1953 White City Lt. Col. H M LLewellyn's 'Foxhunter'', a cast-metal medallion inscribed 'Chio Roma 1954', a hardback volume of 'Passports to Life - An Autobiography' and a John Board inkwash painting of Llewellyn in action at an arena. Auctioneer's Note: Sir Harry Llewellyn, 1911-99, 3rd Baronet, was a British equestrian champion, initially riding as a steeplechaser, he finished second in the 1936 Grand National and 4th on the same horse in 1937, before war intervened and in 1948 he and his horse Foxhunter competed at the Olympic Games in London, where they finished 3rd in the team event, claiming the bronze medal. Shortly afterwards they won the King George V Gold Cup at the International Horse Show and again in 1950 and 1953. Sir Harry remains the only rider to score a hat-trick of victories with the same horse in this prestigious competition. However, it was the gold medal they won at the 1952 Olympic Games held in Helsinki, Britain's only gold at the games, that would cement their reputation. Over the next decade, Harry Llewellyn and Foxhunter won 78 international competitions and Harry went on to become active in the administration of British show-jumping. In 1977 he was knighted and succeeded to the Llewellyn Baronetcy after the death of his elder brother. Provenance: by direct family descent

A Pair of German Parcel-Gilt Silver and Ivory Figures, by Wilhelm Weinranck, Hanau, First Quarter 20th Century, realistically modelled as a knight and a lady, each on square plinth with cast figures as the corners, the sides chased with Renaissance style strapwork and applied with a lion mask on three sides and with a vacant cartouche on the other, the figures each in period costume, the knight holding a flag in one hand and a shield in the other, the lady with hawk, each with carved ivory head, the lady with carved ivory hands, 59.5cm high and smaller, gross weight 191oz 2dwt (2) Hanau, near Frankfurt, was long the centre of producing silver objects which were copies of, or inspired by, earlier silver. While the firm of Schleissner was among the first in Hanau to begin producing such items it is probably Neresheimer who are the firm most associated with the craft, in no small part due to their partnership with Berthold Muller who was importing the companies wares into the United Kingdom in the late 19th and well into the 20th century. Knights and other figures with ivory faces, such as the present pair, were a popular item, though the present pair and another very similar pair which were sold Sotheby's, New York, 26 October 2010, lot 9, must rank as among the largest of their type. Other examples include a pair of knights, by Neresheimer, which were 54.5cm high (Sotheby's New York, 12 October 2009, lot 18) and a pair of figures on horseback on green stone bases (Christie's, London, 9 December 2010, lot 52).
