Lot 346

An unusual set of six silver-inset yew wood trencher place settings by Louis Osman, each with a principal plate and two small ‘condiment’ dishes, hand-wrought and with posthumous Britannia standard hallmarks for the London Assay Office, 1997, plates diameter 23cm, dishes diameter 6cm, trencher 26 x 39cm. £1,500-£2,000 --- Provenance: This set was inherited by Louis Osman’s daughter Marie-Louise. After her death it was bequeathed to the current vendor. It seems that Louis Osman has here reinterpreted mediaeval and early modern ‘high table’ formal dining, where a side plate was provided for utensils and napkin and small dishes for salt and condiment/spices, food then being served and eaten from the trencher. The use of the Britannia standard is consistent with silver wrought by Louis Osman. The absence of his personal mark and hallmark suggests that this set was either for the use of himself and his family, or was intended as a gift or private commission; the presence of a posthumous London Assay Office sponsor mark dated for the year after Osman’s death may indicate an intention to offer for sale subsequently. Peter Musgrove first worked with Louis and Dilys Osman as a silversmith when he was a student in the early 1970s. He set up his own business in 1972 but continued making works for Louis right up to latter’s death in 1996. He was the ‘most loyal of all Louis’ smiths, totting up to at least 30 years of intermittent employment’ (Jenny Moore). Peter Musgrove confirmed to the vendor of this lot that he had personally finished work on these trenchers, at the request of Marie-Louise, after Louis’ death. Please note this lot is subject to ARR (Artist’s Resale Rights). Condition Report Good condition, but naturally occurring radial cracks in the wood with some losses. Weight of plates: 10oz. Weight of small dishes: 0.62-0.64oz.

Lot 479

A late 16th century German silver and ‘lemon’ parcel-gilt ‘monatsbecher’ by Hans Erne, Strasbourg, circa 1580, of flared design and engraved in the manner of Virgil Solis (1514-1562), the decoration emblematic of the month of May, finely engraved below the rim with a broad band of panels beneath, the inscription ‘SECHT / WELCH / EIN / MENSCH / ISTDAS / DER / MEY / BRINGT / BLIEMLEIN / MANIGFAT / MACHT / FRISCH / GEBLVET / IVNG / VND / ALT’, the foot with a further band of engraved decoration of fruit and foliage, reserving three panels of a stag and hounds, the base with assay scrape, maker’s mark conjoined ‘HE’, town mark for Strasbourg, height 10cm. £2,000-£3,000 --- Importation Duty This lot is subject to importation duty of 5% on the hammer price unless exported outside the UK --- --- The engraved inscription translates as ‘The month of May brings magnificent flowers and makes fresh blooms young and old.’ The small German beakers known as ‘monatsbecher’ (‘month beakers’) were made in sets of a dozen, one beaker for each month of the year, and used almost exclusively in German-speaking countries. They were fashionable between the early 16th and mid 17th centuries. This example will have been the fifth in a set of twelve. These cups were popularised by the designs of Virgil Solis (1516-1564), a German draughtsman, skilled in engraving, etching and woodcut, and one of Nuremberg’s most prolific printmakers and book illustrators. The engraved or embossed scenes are often allegorical and inspired by the Labours of the Months. The month of May was associated with courtship and merrymaking and can be seen here in the depiction of figures playing backgammon and drinking in a boat and in the couple bathing together. The significance to mankind of Blood, Water and Wine, both sacred and profane, can also be interpreted; sacramental (a panel depicting Christ: Ecce Homo); medicinal (scene of blood-letting); hospitality (a servant preparing a dinner table). Further references to the month of May include the depiction of lily of the valley or ‘Maiglöckchen’ in German, translating literally as ‘little May bells’, together with the panel depicting ‘twins’ amidst clouds representing the astrological sign for Gemini, against which is visible the numeral ‘5’ for the month of May. For a similar silver and parcel-gilt ‘monatsbecher’ by Courakt Grenter, Strasbourg, circa 1560, see the Salting Collection, V & A (Room 62, The Foyle Foundation Gallery). We are grateful to the Goldsmiths’ Hall Library for assistance in researching the maker’s mark. Literature: The maker’s mark is identified from: L'orfèvrerie de Strasbourg dans les collections publiques française, by Hans Haug, pub. Éditions des Musées nationaux, Palais du Louvre, Paris, 1978. Old Silver of Europe and America: from early Times to the Nineteenth Century. by E. Alfred Jones, pub. B.T.Batsford Ltd., London 1928. Condition Report Engraved decoration in good condition, with no apparent rubbing to the gilt surface. Horizontal dent, approximate length 3cm, positioned approximately 3cm above the footrim, not affecting engraved areas. Further horizontal indentation running around the upper part of the cup, possibly the result of stacking.

A MAHOGANY TWIN PEDESTAL DINING TABLE LATE 18TH CENTURY AND LATER With two additional leaf insertions, bearing Norman Adams paper label to the underside of one pedestal 71cm high, 164cm long (unextended), 188cm long (extended), 114cm wide Provenance: Bearing a Norman Adams paper label to the underside Provenance: Private Collection, Kent   Condition Report: Marks, scratches and abrasions, old chips and splits comensurate with age and use.Some fading overall to the top, some additional staining and ring marks as expected for age and use. (see additional images)When the table is not fully extended, having shorter supports or 'bearers' would help to keep the table firm and flat. There amy be a tendency for the centre of the tabel to 'dip' slightly if bearers are not used. This would be a simple thing to help use the table succesfully. The table isnt very 'wobbly' but there is some movement when weight is pressed down. Some minor adjustments to 'tighten' the connection of the end leaves on their pedestals would also help resolve this. There are brass clips that connect the elements of the top of the table well. There is some relatively minor variation in colour between elements of the top. This could be remedied/ improved by attention from an experienced restorer. One of the additional leaves has a straight join within it suggesting it may be the result of joining two leaves of varying widths together. The leaf is glued and also secured by later bearers screwed to the underside of it. Some adaption of the arrangement of the leaves has therefore taken place. It is possible that some elements of the top are associated to eachother, but they do generally match well. One additional leaf appears to have more of a subtle 'flame' within its grain. The 'later' element(s) of the table are basically the bearers that help support the leaves and the structure of the tabel when they are all in the table. The metal fittings that secure the position of the bearers are also later. Originally there is likely to have been a central pillar which is now lacking. This is a common thing to find with tables of this type. There are also later short 'bearers' than can be rotated to help support the leaves in position prior to the clips being put in. Please refer to all additional images for visual reference to condition. Some of the additional photos can make the top of the tabel appear much more 'yellow' than it is. The catalogue or online catalogue images reflect more truthfully what the table looks like but in bright (studio) lightCondition Report Disclaimer

A GEORGE IV EXTENDING MAHOGANY DINING TABLE ATTRIBUTED TO GILLOWS, CIRCA 1825 Conforming to the Gillows 'Imperial' design, with leaf rack for four additional leaves of varying lengths: 29.5cm, 61cm, 62.5cm and 63cm, respectively The table 72cm high, 125.5cm long (342cm fully extended), 137.5cm deep The leaf rack 149.5cm high, 71.5cm wide, 33cm deep Provenance:Provenance: Widden Hill House, Gloucestershire By repute from Himley Hall, Staffordshire, seat of the Earls of Dudley Purchased by the family of the current owner, circa 1969 The 'Imperial' table, patented by Gillows in 1804, allowed for a variable number of loose leaves to be fitted between fixed end leaves upon a telescopic action. Initially these tables incorporated as many as twelve legs to support the central leaves, in addition to extra legs that could be screwed in as required, however as the design and mechanisms were refined, the central legs were gradually removed. In all related designs, the sitters' knees are accommodated by setting back the legs and from the 1820s and onwards, the Imperial table had risen to such popularity that it was almost exclusively the only dining table the firm manufactured and sold. For further literature, see Susan E. Stuart, Gillows of Lancaster and London 1730-1840, Woodbridge, 2008, vol.I, pp.243-246. A patent 'Imperial dining table' was supplied by the firm in 1813 to Stephen Tempest of Broughton Hall, see Susan E. Stuart, Gillows of Lancaster and London 1730- 1840, Antique Collectors' Club, 2008, Volume 1, page 243, plate 241. For a comparable table by Gillows supplied to the 2nd Baron Bolton (1782-1850) for the Breakfast Room at Hackwood Park in 1813, see Christie's, London, Hackwood Park, 22nd April 1998, Lot 161 (£155,500). Another similar example sold at Christie's, London, Apter-Fredericks: 75 years of Important English Furniture, 19th January 2021, Lot 20 (£87,500).   Condition Report: Overall there are some scratches, marks, knocks, cracks and abrasions consistent with age and use.Observations include:Two leaves to the top are possibly later replacements with closely matched figuring. The larger of these two leaves has a similar pattern of figuring, is fractionally thinner and shorter in width to the other leaves, and is darker in colour, though the colour difference could be altered, and the underside is ebonised. This leaf and another leaf have been scored to the underside and have inset rectangular sections to prevent the bowing of the wood. The narrowest of the loose additional leaves is also probably later.There is some staining, including, for example, to the sides of the leaves.There is some evidence of worm to the telescopic mechanism.The two sections are held fast with two brass thumb screws, and these are stiff (masking tape has been used for the view to hold the sections in place).There are some small knocks and scuffs to the lower areas of the legs, with some slight fading.There are signs of some small running repairs to the telescopic mechanism.The mechanism extends beyond the length needed for the loose leaves.The leaf rack is designed and made to a higher degree than generally seen, with panelled sides, the top and base with a moulding to all four sides. The underside of the rack has concealed brass casters. The green baize to the interior of the rack has some evidence of moth.Please see the additional condition report photographs as a visual reference of condition. Condition Report Disclaimer

Y&nbspA GEORGE III SATINWOOD AND MARQUETRY, CREAM PAINTED AND PARCEL GILT DEMI-LUNE PIER TABLE POSSIBLY BY INCE & MAYHEW, CIRCA 1780 The gilt brass mount finely cast with guilloche and beaded borders 85.5cm high, 118cm wide, 54cm deep Features of this table, such as the particularly refined and engraved marquetry top and drapery-swagged base with foliate-capped legs, strongly suggest the authorship of Ince & Mayhew. Some pier tables, as with the present example, have the sophistication of the banding being set in slightly from the back edge thus being intended to be used with the straight lower edge of a pier mirror.

A GEORGE II MAHOGANY KETTLE STAND MID 18TH CENTURY With 'pie crust' top 56cm high, the top 30cm diameter Condition Report: Marks, scratches and abrasions comensurate with age and useThe top previously with a re-glued clean break and a fragment detached but re-glued. very small amounts of filler used to disguise very small loss there. The top with a polished finish with some fading as often seen and expected for position. The remainder with very good original surface, depth of colour and patina.The metal bracket to the underside of the base is likely an old replacement There is evidence of an old split/ break at a steep angle to the upper part of the stem. This looks to be very old and glued. The turned wooden 'screw' fitting at the top of the stem does unscrew from the turned block to the underside of the top. All elements there appear to be original to eachother. It is impossible to totally guarantee that the top is entirely original to the stem and base although the colour and patina tot he underside of the top does seem to match the adjacent area of the stem well. In approximately two positions to the legs there may have been very old, very cleanly detached elements that have been re-glued incredibly neatly. It is possible that it is the result of two elements of timber being joined in the making of the table. (see images) These 'joins' are only detectable on very close inspection.

Y&nbspA REGENCY RED-EBONY AND EBONISED CENTRE TABLE IN THE MANNER OF THOMAS HOPE, POSSIBLY ANGLO-INDIAN, CIRCA 1810-15 81cm high, 93.5cm wide, 68cm deep Provenance: Christie's, London, Important English Furniture, 29th November 2001, Lot 182 (£23,500) This rare table is designed in the early 19th Century 'antique' manner with plinth-supported ends, of inverted-lyre scroll form centred by a medallion, both deriving from a library table illustrated in Thomas Hope's Household Furniture and Interior Decoration, London, 1807 and from engravings of the celebrated marble 'tomb of Agrippa'. The combination of exotic timbers and the unusual striking design may point to an intriguing possible Anglo Indian origin. Thomas Hope (1769-1831) was influential as a designer, design reformer and collector. A Dutchman, born in Amsterdam, Hope inherited from his family a tradition of collecting as well as vast wealth from the family bank. He was a collector on a grand scale and also an innovative designer of great genius who helped define what we understand as the Regency style. His extensive Grand Tour travels in Europe, Greece, Turkey and Egypt inspired his interest in antiquities as a source of designs for Regency interiors, furniture and metalwork. He was determined to reform contemporary taste by returning architecture and the arts, including interior design and furniture, to what he conceived as the spirit of classical purity. In 1799 he bought a house designed by Robert Adam in Duchess Street, Portland Place, London, which he remodelled with a series of themed interiors. The colourful interiors of Duchess Street and of Hope's country house, Deepdene in Surrey, played a unique role in the history of collecting, interior design and display. Both were open to select visitors, but his furniture reached an even wider public through his book, Household Furniture and Interior Decoration. Published in 1807, this book introduced the term 'interior decoration' into the English language.
