An enamel and diamond quatrefoil brooch by Carlo & Arthur Giuliano in its original case, the pierced design of delicate foliate scrolls enamelled in minutely detailed black and white (some losses) around a central old cushion cut diamond, clasp with safety catch, width 2.3cm; in a fitted, gold-tooled red leather case, gold stamped inside with a crown and 'C&A Giuliano, 115 Piccadilly, London'; although this brooch is not signed, the design, execution and quality of the piece are entirely characteristic of the Giuliano workshop, and the box was clearly made for this brooch Other Notes: Carlo Giuliano senior arrived in England in about 1860 and established a workshop in Frith St, initially making his Renaissance-inspired jewellery for other - high end - retailers. The style was popular and the quality of craftsmanship - reviving some old techniques to suit his designs - was superb; and in 1874 he opened his own outlet, though continued to make for other shops as before. Both his sons, Carlo junior and Arthur, joined him in the business, and continued after his death in 1895 until Arthur's death in 1914.

SULLIVAN ARTHUR: (1842-1900) English Composer. Vintage signed sepia cabinet photograph, the image depicting a monocled Sullivan standing in a half-length pose dressed in an elegant suit and jacket. Signed ('Arthur Sullivan') in bold black ink fountain pen ink to the image, and dated Leeds, 1898in his hand. Matted in cream and framed and glazed in the original ornate wooden frame to an overall size of 7½ x 9½. VG A contemporary typed transcript entitled Music Notes and apparently copied from the Jamestown Journal, 16th September 1898, is pasted to the verso of the frame and would appear to provide an insight into how the signed photograph of Sullivan was acquired. The transcript states, in part, 'While pleasure touring recently in England, James W. Butterfield achieved with a diplomatic stroke of the pen what a dozen reporters would have sweat a dozen hat bands off to have done half as well. Arrived at the Leeds Festival he found the tickets to be beyond price....he penned a winsome note to the director, Sir Arthur Sullivan hinting at the long pilgrimage he had made to attend the festival. Imagine our townman's surprise when he was invited to the director's room, and escorted personally by the great man to one of the best seats in the hall. Later he passed a week at Sir Arthur's home.....' The Leeds Triennial Musical Festival ran from 1858 -1985 and in 1880 Sullivan was appointed as director and principal conductor of the festival. He oversaw the production of seven festivals until 1898, the year in which the present photograph was signed.
