BALVENIE 30 YEAR OLDSingle malt.Balvenie is part of the Grant’s family and sits beside its sister distilleries, Glenfiddich and Kininvie, in the Speyside burgh of Dufftown. Established in 1892, just a few years after Glenfiddich, Balvenie has spent its life supplying the heart of the Grant’s blend. In fact, it wasn’t until nearly 100 years later, when Kininvie was built, that it was able to seriously market its own single malt.One of very few distilleries to retain its own malting floor, Balvenie is slightly unusual for a modern Speyside whisky in that it still uses a small percentage of peated malt to make its spirit. While the new make it produces is far from smoky, this small amount of peat gives it a distinctive character that has helped it become one of the best-selling malt whiskies in the world.47.3% ABV / 70clFill level in mid neck.

ABERLOUR 12 YEAR OLDSingle malt.Named after the small Speyside town in which it resides, Aberlour distillery has cultivated a dedicated following, particularly in France where it is frequently the top selling single malt. The spirit it produces ages extremely well in Sherry casks and has a distinctive note of blackcurrant.Although it boasts an extensive core range, the expression it is perhaps best known for is the consistently excellent small batch A’Bunadh.40% ABV / 70clBALVENIE 12 YEAR OLD DOUBLEWOODSingle malt.Balvenie is part of the Grant’s family and sits beside its sister distilleries, Glenfiddich and Kininvie, in the Speyside burgh of Dufftown.

HIGHLAND PARK 12 YEAR OLD VIKING HONOURSingle malt.Orkney’s Highland Park distillery is situated in the town of Kirkwall on the site of an illicit still thought to have been operated by Magnus Eunson, a smuggler, local butcher and former priest who was directly descended from Viking settlers. With that heritage, it’s fitting that today they frequently draw from Scandinavian mythology when it comes to naming their whiskies.The distillery is known for its signature style that utilises Orcadian peat in the malting process, resulting in a fragrant, heathery spirit that is most often left matured in Sherry wood.40% ABV / 70clBUNNAHABHAIN STIUIREADAIRSingle malt.Purpose built in 1881 by William Baxter, Bunnahabhain distillery on the northeast coast of Islay featured housing for its workers, as well as its own pier for ease of transporting whisky and materials to and from the mainland. As with most distilleries, much of its life was spent producing blending stock, but in the late 1980s it began to appear as a single malt.Initially this single malt output was mostly sherry matured and so lightly peated as to be barely perceptible, placing Bunna’ firmly in the minority of Islay whiskies. However, since its takeover by Distell in 2013 around 20% of the spirit produced there is now heavily peated, with these expressions bearing the name “Moine” (the Gaelic word for peat).46.3% ABV / 70cl

Clearly more people fall into the “love” category though, as Laphroaig is one of the top ten best selling single malts in the world. Just as well, then, that it is the second largest distillery on the island (after Caol Ila), capable of producing 3.4 million litres of spirit per annum.The distillery still retains its own malting floor, and although it only covers 20% of their requirements, it is instrumental in providing the creosote-y, phenolic character that defines the Laphroaig spirit.40% ABV / 70cl

A Sèvres 'Coupe Réticulée', made for the Comte de Paris, circa 1845Modelled by Hyacinthe Régnier, the bowl with reticulated double-walled Asian motifs including stylised lotus flowers, the inside decorated with eight vignette still life scenes of flowers and vases, standing on subtle gilt fretwork bases, all surrounding a central rosette in of silvered single flowers placed in abstracted pointed arches in Islamic taste, placed on a circular reticulated baluster pedestal foot, in its original fitted green leather circular case, the coupe: 24.8cm high; the case: 34.5cm diam., crowned LP monogram and SEVRES 1845 (indistinct) within a circle stencilled in blue, gilder's mark B and incised 8VZ(?) - 43 -3Footnotes:Provenance: Delivered to the Comte de Paris on 19 November 1845Le Goût ChinoisIn November 1831 Hyacinthe Régnier was paid an advance for initial designs of elements of a déjeuner simply known as 'Chinois'. His inspiration was drawn from the Chinese objects he would have seen in the famous sale of Chinese art of the Parisian art dealer F. Sallé which began on 11 April 1826. This sale contained a section of 'Openwork Chinese Porcelain'. In a description of the pieces it reads: 'The Chinese make a kind of porcelain with openwork designs resembling paper cut-outs. In the centre is a vessel for liquid. This vessel forms one unit with the openwork' (T. Préaud, The Sèvres Porcelain Manufactory - Alexandre Brongniart and the Triumph of Art and Industry, 1800-1847 (1997), cat.no. 73 and 76). The Sèvres factory was not the first to attempt these 'double walled' objects, indeed the Meissen factory had made similar technically precarious pieces in the earliest days of its existence, and a large double-walled Doccia coffee pot is in the Museo Internazionale delle Ceramiche di Faenza. But Régnier was the first to successfully adapt the intrinsic Chinese patterns to a modern eclectic taste, and manage the huge technical challenges of firing, in several stages, the very delicate pierced outer wall. Chinese influence began to have a major influence on the decorative arts, and many Sèvres piece were inspired by forms, glazes and decorations of authentic Chinese models. As Tamara Préaud notes (op. cit. p.275) careful scientific examination of Chinese wares also prompted the development of new techniques at Sèvres.The déjeuner chinois réticulé instantly became a success, and other shapes and objects, ever more ambitious, were realised in this new, exotic taste. The first design for the present Coupe Réticulée was realised in 1842, around the same time Brogniart decided to undertake a chinoiserie cabinet inspired by Auguste Borget's Sketches of China and the Chinese (1842). Brogniart wrote he took care to avoid imitation of Chinese ornament, whereby he meant that the decoration was closely modelled after 'authentic' Chinese examples, a historically correct approach that was quite new at the time. (Préaud op.cit. p. 307).The original designs for this coupe are kept in the archives of the Sèvres manufactory. Although slightly different, the reticulated walls also show the same stylised lotus flower and foot.Philippe, Comte de ParisThe present coupe is listed in the Sèvres sales register at 650 livres on 19 November 1845 as follows Livré à Son Altesse Royale Monseigneur le Comte de Paris. Le 19 Novembre 1845. Coupe réticulée, fond bleu (...) décor en or et couleurs dans le style chinois. [delivered to HRH the Count of Paris. 19 November 1845. A reticulated coupe, blue (...) with a decoration in gold and colours, in Chinese style.]Prince Philippe, Count of Paris (24 August 1838 - 8 September 1894), became the Prince Royal, heir apparent to the throne, when his father, Prince Ferdinand-Philippe, Duc d'Orléans, died in a carriage accident in 1842. Although there was some effort during the days after the abdication of his grandfather in 1848 to put him on the throne under the name of Louis-Philippe II, with his mother (Helene of Mecklenburg-Schwerin) as Regent, this came to nothing and the family fled as the French Second Republic was proclaimed. Philippe married the Infanta Maria Isabel of Spain in 1864, and during their early married life, the Count and Countess of Paris lived at York House, Twickenham. In 1871 after the Franco-Prussian War and the downfall of Napoleon III, they were allowed to return to France, and many of their properties were restored to them. They did not, however, succeed in claiming the throne in a restored monarchy after the fall of Napleon III. In 1886 the family was exiled again returning to England, where they first lived at Sheen House, near Richmond, and in 1890 they moved to the much grander Stowe House, where Philippe died in 1894.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
