A SAPPHIRE BRACELET, BY ILLARIO, CIRCA 1955 The supple and articulated bracelet composed of two rows of baguette-cut synthetic sapphires between borders of gold beading detail, mounted in 18K gold, maker's mark for Illario, French import mark, length 18cm Brothers Carlo, Vincenzo and Luigi Illario were a family of goldsmiths/jewellers from Valenza. They established a jewellery firm in 1920, with each brother taking on their own position. Carlo, who was trained in Paris, headed the production, Vincenzo was a stone setter who also selected the precious gems and Luigi was head of administration. The brothers worked under their own name, as well as for bigger firms, and were involved with several different jewellery companies. Some of the most renowned goldsmiths in Valenza practised in their workshop, guaranteeing that each product was crafted with exceptional quality. The company brand from 1935 had been 26AL and the business name was under Carlo Illario e Filli. Traditionally, ownership was handed down from father to son and, in 1953, even Luigi's sons, Giovanni and Vittorio, became a part of the family business. From the end of the 1900s, Vittorio and his sons, Pier Luigi and Edoardo, carried on as owners of the company with the 'Illario 1920' logo. In 1996, Giovanni Illario, along with his sons Carlo and Gian Luca, agreed with Vittorio and his sons to set up a new company that would allow them to be more active in the foreign market. This led to a split in Societa Carlo Illario and to the creation of the new Societa Carlo Luca della Quercia which pursues the traditions and spirit of the original company. Their skilled craftsmanship, reputation of excellence and use of innovative goldsmith techniques caught the attention of well-established retailers. Throughout the 20th century, Casa Illario created unique pieces of haute joaillerie for the most famous Italian maisons: Bvlgari, Cusi, Faraone, Fasano, Fecarotta, Settepassi, Ventrella and others. The company's partnership with Bvlgari was particularly long standing, running from the 1950s through until the 1970s. In this time, Illario made many pieces for Bvlgari, including the now iconic Serpenti watch bracelet. Elizabeth Taylor was a consistent patron, whose personal style and love of dramatic jewels found its home in Illario's creations. Alongside manufacturing for other brands, Illario produced a vibrant assortment of jewellery under their own name. They were known for their fine gemstones and unusual materials, such as polychrome enamel, tortoiseshell and mother of pearl. Striving to stand out, Illario used new techniques in its pieces, such as black rhodium plating to create a contrasted look. The quality of the craftsmanship is clear in all jewels that bear the Illario name, making them highly desirable.

Group of Figures, in silver, representing King John signing Magna Carta lent by J. D'Aguilar Samuda Esq., Note:Joseph D'Aguilar Samuda (1813 -1885) was a civil engineer and politician. Born in London, he studied engineering with his brother Jacob, they subsequently set up Samuda Brothers which principally built marine engines between 1832-1842. From 1843 Samuda Bros (Jacob died in 1844) entered into ship-building and the firm was continuously engaged in constructing iron steamships for the Royal Navy, merchant marine, passenger and mail services as well as private commissions. In 1860 Joseph helped to establish the Institute of Naval Architects, of which he was the first treasurer and subsequently a vice-president and in 1862 he became a member of the Institution of Civil Engineers.In 1841 Joseph published A Treatise on the Adaptation of Atmospheric Pressure to the Purposes of Locomotion on Railways. He patented the scheme and as a result his firm was engaged in putting into practice between the yeas 1842 -1848. They laid down and worked on experimental lines most notably between London Bridge and Epsom (Croydon line), Dalkey (Co Dublin) and Paris however, once consistent problems became apparent the atmospheric method of propulsion was abandoned and the equipment sold.Politically he was a member of the Metropolitan Board of Works from 1860 to 1865, entering Parliament as the Liberal MP for Tavistock. He sat for Tavistock until 1868, when he was returned for the Tower Hamlets, which he represented until 1880. Then he lost his seat owing to his support for Benjamin Disraeli's foreign policy. While in the House he spoke with authority on all matters connected with his profession and his speeches are described as "treasure-houses of technical and political knowledge." He was one of the original officers of the 2nd Tower Hamlets Rifle Volunteer Corps/ 4th (City of London) Battalion in 1861 he was commissioned as a captain.
