Sundials: A rare and early iron and copper armillary on carved stone pedestal, mid 18th century, 164cm high Armillary spheres which date back to the 4th century B.C. in China, were originally made as models of all the stars and planets in the sky, ie a celestial sphere. Most were reproduced in the 19th and 20th centuries as sundials with the hours and minutes marked on the inside of a central ring using the central pole as a gnomon. This early example is similar to one in the garden of the 17th century Museum van Loon, Amsterdam.
Garden Statues: After John Cheere: A pair of lead figures of a shepherd and shepherdess, 2nd half 20th century, on composition stone pedestals, the figures 136cm; 236cm overall John Cheere was first in partnership with his brother Sir Henry Cheere, but took over John Nost’s yard and his moulds for lead figures in about 1739. Until his death in 1787 he was the leading producer of lead statuary as well as working in plaster. Contemporary accounts of his yard, which was situated on Hyde Park Corner indicate that his oeuvre was very varied and included rustic figures, shepherds and shepherdesses as well as classical statues and busts from antiquity.
Garden statues: After the Antique: A composition stone figure of the Uffizi boar, modern, on plinth, 210cm high by 156cm longThe Uffizi or Calydonian boar is also called “Il Porcinellino”. The Roman marble original was discovered in Rome in the 1550’s by the Ponti family. By 1568 the statue was in Florence and its fame began to spread. Originally the statue was grouped with other animals and a figure of a peasant or soldier assumed to be Meleager, however by the end of the 18th Century it was more commonly depicted by itself. The piece is presently located in the Uffizi museum in Florence. It has been reproduced in a large variety of materials including bronze, terracotta and composition stone.
Architectural: A rare cast iron armorial of a squirrel, mid 19th century, on later carved stone base, 75cm high overall The torse beneath the squirrel suggests that this was probably one of a pair of one off commissions possibly to stand on gate piers as a family crest., In heraldry, a torse or wreath is a twisted roll of fabric laid about the top of the helmet and the base of the crest. It has the dual purpose of masking the join between helm and crest, and of holding the mantling in place. Fairburn’s Crests of the Families of Great Britain and Ireland records a number of families whose crest is a squirrel in a similar pose.
