Two large wine glasses, c.1760-70, with drawn trumpet bowls, one raised on a plain stem enclosing a long tear, the other with a double knopped stem above a folded conical foot, 17.7cm max. (2) Provenance: Count Redmond Toler Clayton-Browne Clayton (1863-1937) of the Villa La Punta, Cervara, Santa Margherita, Liguria, Italy.
FIVE ALBUMS OF VARIOUS AUTOGRAPHS, to include Dennis Price, Max Wall, Richard Todd, Danny Kaye, Dick Emery, Jimmy Edwards, The Mysterious Linga Singh, Peter Sellers etc. The signatures relate mainly to artists / acts appearing at The Camberwell Palace from 1915 to the early 1950'sIt would appear all five books belonged to someone who possibly worked at the Camberwell Palace as an electrician and I would imagine the signatures are of both ‘stars’ and colleagues. Many of the signatures are “To Robin” and in the front of two it has “R. C. Arthurton, Love Walk, Denmark Hill, London SE5”. The older book has “H.W. Arthurton, 4 Love Walk, Denmark ill, SE” The oldest book has many signatures dated 1914 – 1916 and some photo postcards, not being familiar with the period we do not know who they are but recognisable signatures are Elsie Raby, Lingha Singh, Billy Williams, Rameses, Sammy Shields, The Great Wieland, Phil Bransby, Gertie Gitana, Phil Ray, Cruikshank the fool of the family, Scotch Kelly, Fred Emney, Beattie & Babs, Ella Shields, Stanley Kirkly & Harry Hudson, Johnson Clark.(R.C.Arthurton) Some photographs and recognisable signatures mainly in pencil are: Ronalde, Peter Waring, Janet Hamilton-Smith, Pat Fisher (trumpet), Mario Lorenzi, Jack Warner, Frankie Howard, at the back several to a page - Malcolm Graham, Keith Anderson, Francis Matthews etc and a small number of newspaper clippings relating to the death of actor George Crocker who was killed in an accident on a train.(R.C.

Lots 359 to 374These lots are entered from the estate of the ceramicist Sally Dawson (1927-2017). A teacher and potter based in Hackney, Sally was born in Montreal, Canada, moving to London in 1963 where she studied at the Sir John Cass School of Art. She had a studio in the basement of her house and was a member of the Craft Potters' Association. Over the years, Sally collected many works by her contemporaries.*Dame Lucie Rie (1902-1995), a stoneware vase, with a tall trumpet-shaped neck with flaring rim, with a spiral glaze in mushroom, ochre, mauve and green, potter's mark,37cm high*Artist's Resale Right may apply to this lot.
the spiralling shell fitted to the apex with a blue glass terminal, the mouth rim incised with gilded calligraphy denoting auspicious phrases referencing the autumn of the 45th year of the Qianlong reign, the axis pierced for the attachment of a layered silk brocade streamer adorned with seed pearls, lapis lazuli bead and tassels 16,9cm long excluding streamerThe conch is one of the Eight Precious Buddhist Treasures, Bajíxiàng and the Chinese long appreciated the unassuming exterior concealing the intricate structure of the interior. Widely used in Buddhist ceremonies as a trumpet or holy water chalice, the conch becomes a symbol of the pure teachings of the Buddha, and the proclamation of the Dharma. Once associated with power and sovereignty, the conch transformed into an emblem of religious authority, its spiralling whorls mimicking the sun on its daily course through heaven, the apex of the shell resembling the tight curls of Buddha's hair, its deep sound echoing the voice of Buddha, as well as being one of the emblems left by the footprint of the Buddha.- Johan Joubert
