A SMALL PAINTED COTTON COVER (KHANDAPATA), RAJASTHAN, CIRCA 1900 in the form of a small Nathdwara pichhavai, the rectangular panel depicting Krishna dancing on a hexagonal platform in the forest by the river teeming with fish, flanked by a pair of cows, surrounded by a border of rambling roses, the corners stitched 46 x 51cm (opened out) Provenance: Private collection, Northern England A khandapata is a cloth covering for the small side tables placed next to the Sri Nath Ji shrine, for further images of Krishna. The name is also used for the table itself. For a khandapata in the Calico Museum, Ahmedabad, see Kay Talwar and Kalyan Krishna, Indian Pigment Paintings on Cloth, Ahmedabad 1979, pl.22.
A GERMAN SILVER-GILT DISH, MASTER OF THE 'B & ANCHOR' MARK, PROBABLY HANAU, THIRD QUARTER 19TH CENTURY in Renaissance style, oval, relief chased in fine detail with the 'Judgement of Paris', the rim also richly chased with fruits and foliage interrupted by four heads, pseudo marks of a B and anchor conjoined, an animal's head facing, a fruit and an eagle displayed 26cm, 272gr (8oz) A number of fine 'Historismus' style pieces bearing this mark have been recorded, but sadly the maker remains unidentified. He was clearly working to fulfill an expanding market for old silver. W.H Singer in The Art Journal of 1880, pp. 313/314, records 'it is curious that at the present time Germany is the country where are produced nearly all the forgeries of old silver work, such as ewers and hanaps (Old French for a cup) with which the London shops and salerooms are filled...'. See the exhibition catalogue 'Macht & Pracht, Europas Glanz im 19. Jahrhundert', 2006, p.264, dedicated to German 19th century decorative arts in earlier styles, where a table centrepiece by the B and anchor maker and stamped with an 'N' mark is ascribed to the firm of Neresheimer of Hanau. This may well be an incorrect attribution, since the B and anchor maker would appear to have been working considerably earlier in the 19th century than Neresheimer. For a magnificent parcel-gilt and enamelled cup and cover with the same marks as this dish, see Sotheby's, London, 1 November 2017, lot 842.

SILVERSMITHS MANCHESTER' 196gr (6oz 6dwt) So-called 'berry spoons' were old, otherwise unwanted silver table and dessert spoons, embossed and chased by enterprising silversmiths to be recycled as novel wedding, birthday and Christmas presents. Often attractively presented in cases as sets of four, six or more, these spoons began to appear in the late 1870s. An early, somewhat satirical reference to them is included in A Naughty Girl's Diary, 'by the author of A Bad Boy's Diary,' a novelette published over several months in The Fife Herald during 1883: 'This is tuzeday morning; the wedding is tomorrow. It is deliteful an' exciting now the presents are arriving; the most of them have arrove - 4 ice pitchers, 8 butter gnives, 12 berry spoons, 1 fish slice, 4 castors, 9 pikle forks, 3 cake baskets .
