A full-tip rhinoceros horn carving on stand Qing Dynasty 19th century, the tapering horn a mixture of dark and warm caramel colours with ruffled edge, heavily carved with open-work of intertwined leaves, magnolia vine and berries, mounted on a large wooden stand with central branch, heavily carved with open-work of lotus pods, and leaves, height of horn 50cm, overall height of horn and stand combined 81cm ÂŁ30,000-ÂŁ50,000 Provenance: This rhinoceros horn was acquired by descendants of the current owner whilst they were stationed in China during the late 1800s it has been handed down through the family through a number of generations. Please note that the United Kingdom Government have introduced an almost complete prohibition on granting a license to permit the export of worked antique rhinoceros horn from the United Kingdom to any destination outside the European Union. Therefore it is unlikely that a CITES re-export certificate would be granted for this item under the restrictions in force in the UK on rhino horn exports. Potential bidders are required to register specifically for this lot before 12 noon on the day prior to the auction. Please note that absentee, telephone and email bids will not be accepted from potential buyers from mainland China and other countries outside the EU.

Gray-Stan glass (1926-1936) was set up by Mrs GraydonStanus in 1926 where she insisted that in her ‘little factory’ each piece was hand-made with no use of machinery so that each piece was individually crafted. It was therefore very expensive during it’s time and was known as ‘The Luxury Modern Glass’.
