HER ROYAL HIGHNESS THE PRINCESS MARGARET, COUNTESS OF SNOWDON (1930-2002) PERSONAL DESK SEAL A FINE 19TH CENTURY SMOKY QUARTZ AND DIAMOND-SET DESK SEAL The facetted baluster smoky quartz handle to an openwork diamond-set collar and domed mount, circular smoky quartz matrix engraved with a script initial M, accompanied by leather folio and certificate of provenance from Christie's, London Dimensions:Length: 6.1cm, matrix 1.2cm Provenance:Provenance:Silver, Furniture And Works Of Art From The Collection Of H.R.H. The Princess Margaret, Countess Of Snowdon, Christies London 14th June 2006, lot 459Literature:Matrix: A Collection of British Seals - David Morris 2012- Seal 21, page 61 Note: Note: Princess Margaret (1930-2002) was born at Glamis Castle in Scotland, the youngest daughter of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother. In the post-war years she became one of the world's most celebrated socialites, famed for her glamourous lifestyle and reputed romances.Margaret met her husband photographer Antony Armstrong-Jones at a party in 1958 and following their marriage in 1960, they had two children together. A loving mother, Princess Margaret was also involved with more than 80 charities and organisations. Among them, she served as president of the NSPCC and president of the Royal Ballet.Following the breakdown of her marriage, Margaret never remarried, preferring to spend a large majority of her time in her home in Mustique, Les Jolies Eaux. In the final decades of her life, she remained committed to the philanthropic causes and organisations, but her health began to deteriorate and she passed away in 2002 after her fourth stroke.Due to a significant tax bill, her children offered a collection of her belongings for sale. The 2006 Christie's auction attracted much attention and achieved over £ 14,000,000.The two-day sale included furniture, silver, works of art, jewellery and decorative objects, all from the private collection of Her Royal Highness The Princess Margaret Countess Of Snowdon. We are delighted to offer one of the seals that formed part of this auction. It had been suggested at the time of the auction, but has not been proven since, that this seal was a personal gift from Queen Mary, Princess Margaret’s grandmother, to her. The simple M could relate to either and the piece being made earlier than Margaret’s lifetime again would suggest a family piece. This seal therefore likely belonged to two generations of royals and the simple engraved italic M rather than a crest, or full armorial suggests that it was a much more personal seal and would have been used for intimate and personal correspondence.

Lot 129

Y A EUROPEAN EARLY 19TH CENTURY CORAL, SILVER AND BLOODSTONE MOUNTED DESK SEAL, CIRCA 1830 The coral handle finely carved as a roaring dragon in the Chinese taste, the open mouth grasping a flared silver mount engraved with scrolls and flower heads, with chased border, the canted rectangular bloodstone matrix with continental twin armorial shields with coronet above, in fitted leather caseDimensions:Length: 8.4cm, matrix: 1.9cm x 2.0cmNote: Please be aware that this lot contains material which may be subject to import/export restrictions, especially outside the EU, due to CITES regulations.

Lot 131

A FINE MID-19TH CENTURY MALACHITE, BLOODSTONE AND AGATE MULTI-MATRIX DESK SEAL Modelled as an armoured arm, the scroll engraved gauntlet holding a scroll, the oval bloodstone terminal engraved with the arms of Salomon and Cohen, the scroll set to each terminal, with initials and crest to each Dimensions:Length: 8.5cm, matrix: 1.6cm x 1.3cm, smaller matrix diameter: 8mm Provenance:Literature :Matrix: A Collection of British Seals - David Morris 2012- Seal 45, page 102 Note: Note: Sir David Salomons, MP for Greenwich and an Alderman of the City of London was born in 1797 and married firstly, in 1825, Jeanette, daughter of Solomon Cohen, but after her death in 1867, married secondly Cecilia, the widow of his second son J.P. Salomons. David Salomons had a distinguished career in the City of London, and at thirty-five was one of the founders of the London and Westminster Bank. In 1835 he was the first Jew to be elected Sheriff and at the end of that year was presented with a massive silver ornament by fellow Jews as ‘an acknowledgement of his exertions in the cause of religious liberty’. When he became the first Jewish Lord Mayor of London in 1855, the question arose as to whether he could be bound by an oath not taken on the Bible. This same difficulty has already arisen four years prior when he was returned as Member of Parliament for Greenwich but could not take his seat in the House of Commons because of the Parliamentary oath – this was resolved by the influence of the Rothschild family.He remained a Liberal MP for Greenwich until his death in 1873 when his title and estate at Broomhill in Kent passed to his nephew Sir David Lionel Salomons.The arms are those of Salomons, Baronets, impaling Cohen, within a lozenge. They are impaled within a lozenge (for a female) and unusually, also bear the Baronet's badge. Sadly the arms on this seal were never registered in this form. However, they relate most closely to the period of Sir David Salomons first marriage but the addition of the Baronet’s badge is incorrect (him not receiving this honour when his first wife was alive), however it has been suggested this was added later and therefore the seal relates to the period of his life prior to 1867 but used later.

Two years later he was promoted to full lieutenant. On the occasion of the coronation of George V in 1911 he was made a Knight Commander of the Bath. In 1913, at the age of 60, his command of the Welsh Division expired. He was promoted to Major-General commanding the Brigade of Guards and GOC London District. In 1913 Lieutenant General Sir Francis Lloyd was appointed to the supreme position reserved for Guardsmen, the command of the London Districts. The war saw an extension of his responsibilities to include the hospitals and main railway terminals??? in the metropolis. On his death in 1926 his funeral was held at Guards Chapel, Wellington Barracks. Unusually for this seal we not only know who it was made for by who made it.

A Viking gold bangle, early 2nd millennium A.D. Formed of solid gold, the exterior stamped with alternating bands of circular and triangular decoration, terminating in dual loops Dimensions:8.2cm diameter Provenance:Provenance:Simon Bendall, London, United KingdomThe Hall Family Collection, acquired from the aboveFortuna Fine ArtsPrivate collection, United Kingdom, acquired from the above, a copy of the original invoice to be included with the item Note: Note: Please note that this item has been studied and assessed by experts at the Jorvik Viking Museum, York. During the Viking era, both men and women wore jewellery, typically made from bronze or silver, with gold being reserved for the elite. At the onset of the Viking era in 800 A.D., the jewellery was characterized by minimalistic designs. However, as techniques evolved and Vikings encountered new cultures through exploration and raiding, jewellery became increasingly intricate, incorporating designs from these cultures. Certain families of high social standing began to use ornamentation that was exclusive to their clan, and not to be replicated by others.Beyond their decorative function and status symbol, jewellery served as a form of currency during this period. Pieces were often broken up into smaller parts to accommodate transactions, resulting in complete pieces becoming rare.
