A Tankard Specialist Edward Gladwin of Bourton-on-the-Water, Gloucestershire, apprenticed to Francis Leake on the 16th of August 1661, becoming free by service on the 26th of August 1668. He was elected a Liveryman in 1674, in 1689 he made a parcel of silver for the Lord Mayor of London; four tankards along with a basin and ewer. He is known to lodged with is former apprentice John Yates by the time of the 1692 poll tax, where Yates had also taken on Edward’s son Thomas as an apprentice in 1691. However, Yates died in 1693, whereby Thomas Gladwin was turned over to Francis Garthorne. The living arrangements of Edward Gladwin are not known after this date. However, he also served as Touchwarden in 1698 but he does not seem to have registered a Britannia standard mark in the act of 1697, therefore one might speculate that the Gladwin workshop might then have been in the hands of his sons William (free 1697) and Thomas (free 1699). This mark, his first, along with his second mark of E G between two mullets was attributed to Gladwin by A.J.H. Sale, Goldsmiths of Gloucester, 1500-1800, The Silver Society Journal Vol 2, P.74 (1990). David M. Mitchell cites Anthony Sale’s attribution of this mark to Edward Gladwin in Silversmiths in Elizabethan and Stuart London, (2018) p. 281. Jackson records two tankards, a cup and an alms dish by this maker made between 1670 and 1680. (Jackson, 1989, P. 138, LINE 8). Gladwin, clearly a specialist largeworker, produced many tankards with at least 13 known examples including the present lot, of which this is the only piece of the year 1676 that has been presently noted. The decoration to the hinge is an uncommon feature and is apparently not seen on Gladwin’s other tankards, where such information is available. The form of finial on the present lot is seen in the exact same form on another tankard of 1682 by this maker, formerly in the possession of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, sold Christies, New York 14 / 15 December 2015, Lot 117 (£3,500 incl. premium) and these rooms London, 23 Aug 2016, Lot 29 (£4,880 incl. premium) Another tankard with a very similar thumbpiece of 1683 by this maker, sold Sotheby’s New York 20-22 Jan, Lot 400 ($5000, incl. premium)
