Lot 1296

An extremely rare James I sweetmeat tazza, on an openwork spool foot, the bowl decorated with pierced formal scroll cartouches, with raised central bosses, within a border of repeating openwork arches, the central boss domed and pierced flanking a shield, pricked "H" over "HC" with two mullets in between, the whole with chased linear borderwork, maker's mark "CB" [in monogram] *, London 1619, 6.3in (16.2cm) diameter, 2in (5.1cm) high, 5.5oz. * See Jacksons Revised pp 103 for this maker's mark as seen on various cups (steeple, standing, etc) and a tazza from the period 1600-1632. This form of dish is atypical in style of plate being produced in England at this period. See Hughes, E: Silver for Collectors pp 32 where it details this particular tazza and notes that it "represents a style believed to have reached England through trade with Portugal. In 1604, when James I of England made peace with Philip II of Spain, who had succeeded to the Portuguese throne in 1580, trade was once more resumed with the Iberian peninsular in 1626 when Charles I had to raise money, no fewer than nineteen pieces of Portuguese plate were consigned to the melting pot!". This tazza clearly shows Portuguese influence and it is interesting to note also that the more commonplace sweetmeat dishes of the Charles I period, shaped circular with small shell handles by William Maundy et al again show Portuguese inspiration Ð albeit a later development of the style.
