Bacchus and Ariadne: A Mid-18th Century Ivory Fan, the monture with carved and pierced, gilded and silvered and quite substantial sticks. The upper guard is carved with a large figure, the lower section with rounded shoulders to complement the gorge sticks. The gorge carving and piercing is almost trompe l'oeil, with borders meandering around to enclose vignettes in a very fluid fashion. Within these borders, some fashioned with chains some with more regular designs, are three vignettes. The inner and larger vignette features four gilded figures in 18th century dress, variously seated or standing, with musical instruments. The two to the side are more angular and backed with burgau, containing gilded cherubs playing. The lower section of the gorge is plain ivory and leads to a rivet topped with diamanté. The vellum leaf, mounted à l'anglaise, is painted in pastel colours, showing a large clearing where a group of friends are at rest, variously seated or standing next to a stone all supporting a large grey urn. Two young maidens are close to Bacchus, who is accepting a goblet of wine from Ariadne. Slightly to the left, Silenus is seated on the grass, playing a curved horn, others dancing further inside the field. At each side of the central gathering, groups of four cherubs are playing with carts. The cart to the left is being pulled by a dog, one winged cherub riding on its back. To the right, the cart is being pulled by one cherub whilst two others hitch a ride, the smallest cherub leading the procession playing another wind instrument. The reserves are painted in shades of soft turquoise with pink and white flowers and fruits, with the addition of a large turquoise diamond with gold highlights. The verso is plain save for a floral border in blues and pink, with green leaves, some highlighting in gold, and a gold bird. Guard length 28cmOne of four applied panels of burgau is missing. Some slight ivory loss to several gorge tips/shoulders. The silvering is dull but the gilding is mainly bright. Some rubs to leaf folds.
Flora and Zephyr: An 18th Century Carved and Pierced Ivory Fan, with mother-of-pearl thumb guards. The upper guards are elaborately carved with two figures and a large urn, with some light colour painting. The lower sections are more classical. The gorge is carved to the left with a lady dancing, her skirts swirling, and to the right with three more dancers, the background piercing very finely worked. The vellum leaf, mounted à l'anglaise, depicts Flora, Goddess of Flowers and of the Spring and her husband Zephyr, the Wind God, a winged cherub to the side, a lady gathering flowers with a child to the right, the verso with a simple painting of a lady with a panier. Guard length 26cmThe leaf is quite rubbed at each side. The verso is dirty and has a few stains. The upper guards are likely to be later replacements.
An Early 18th Century Ivory Fan, the monture carved and pierced, and painted in green and blue with hints of gold. The guards each have a carved figure. The gorge is centrally carved with two couples, left unpainted, the woodland background in dark green, a decorative urn in strong blue, the decoration to both sides continuing with the blue which creates a fresh effect along with gold. The vellum leaf, mounted à l'anglaise, shows a finely dressed lady in a vibrant blue open robe with pink skirt, seated in a clearing, picking fruit which is growing from a bush backed by a stone wall. Behind this wall to the right is a young shepherd, his sheep grazing, peeking around the wall to gaze upon the unsuspecting lady. The reserves are predominantly floral with a large urn to the right. The verso is painted with a tree, a stone ruin in the distance. Red stone at the rivet. Guard length 28.5cmThe upper guard is broken but present. Brown marks to the verso in line mainly with the ribs.
