36 AN EDWARDIAN PRESENTATION TRAY of oval form, with raised scroll and shell border and plain handles, the centre chased with flowers and scrolls, engraved with a presentation inscription "Presented by the Planters Association of Ceylon to Mrs E.H.L. Thomas (Miss Geraldine Blake) in appreciation of the artistic skills displayed and generously given in the designing and execution of the Ceylon Contingent Memorial, Kandy", by James Dixon & Sons, Sheffield 1909, 26" long (handle to handle), (c.91oz). See illustration
The tray marks an important moment in the history of the Boer War and of the contribution made by a patriotic group of soldiers from Ceylon. The fine memorial created to mark this history is also one of the finest bronze war memorials to have been created by a female artist at the turn of the nineteenth century.
Unveiled in 1907, the 'Ceylon contingent memorial' is a large and impressive work by Geraldine Blake, a successful sculptor who was one of very few female artists to obtain a commission to create a work on this scale. Depicting a trooper of the Ceylon Mounted Infantry giving the signal 'enemy in sight', the sculpture is full of life and movement, with the soldier in full uniform holding a rifle above his head. Geraldine Blake, who became Geraldine Thomas at her marriage, was the sister-in-law of Lt Arthur H Thomas, one of the soldiers who died in action and is consequently commemorated on the memorial. Commissioned by A.H. Thomas' father to remember his son and fallen comrades, the choice of Geraldine Blake will have been a fitting family collaboration.
The 'Ceylon contingent' were a locally raised unit of Ceylon volunteers drawn largely from the local white planter community. A 129 strong contingent travelled to fight in South Africa as a sign of their patriotic ardour and loyalty to the Queen and Empire. Described in the pages of the Daily Telegraph as 'lithe, clean-cut fellows and their 'mounts' are the hardy and wonderful Burma ponies'.
Originally sited along the Lakeside Esplanade in Kandy the memorial became something of a focal point for nationalist sentiment in post-independence Sri Lanka in the 1960s. To protect the memorial it was removed from its plinth and relocated within the confines of the Sri Lankan Army barracks at Kandy where it remains.

735 ATTRIBUTED TO ANTON FRUHAUF (1914-1999): AN 18CT YELLOW GOLD ABSTRACT BROOCH, of square form, depicting Masai Tribe figures under a moon, the moon modelled as a round, brilliant-cut diamond c. 0.4cts, the reverse stamped ‘750’ with makers mark for Charles de Temple, c. 7.5cm wide, c. 116.2g (all in). See illustration. Provenance: Purchased in a Mayfair jewellers by the vendor’s mother in the 1980’s. Thence by descent. Private Collection, Bath.
The design and construction of this piece is wholly consistent with the work of Anton Fruhauf, an award winning modernist Austrian jeweller and graphic designer who sought to make wearable works of art. Numerous identical brooches with the same casting have appeared on the open market in recent years but without the addition of a diamond and the Charles de Temple mark. It is possible that Fruhauf sent a small number of these ‘Masai Tribe’ brooches to his friend and contemporary Charles de Temple for gem-stone embellishment which would explain the addition of de Temple’s mark.

THE VICTOR NEEDHAM COLLECTION "Pop", as I knew him was immersed in the world of antiques throughout his interesting life. He was a quiet and unassuming man with immense knowledge and experience which he freely shared with other members of the trade and collectors who came to him for advice. One of the pearls of wisdom which he passed on to me was "Buy with your eyes, not with your ears". He served on The Council of The BADA and was on the committee of the first Bournemouth Antiques Fair at The Palace Court in 1970. After leaving school at the end of the First World War he followed his elder brother Walter in to the renowned family firm of J.W.Needham in Deansgate Arcade Manchester, founded by his father around 1890. He had a deep appreciation for early objects and furniture and made such good progress that, in 1927, he was sent to America to open up a Victor Needham branch of the business in New York which became Needhams Inc. and the first of a long succession of containers full of quality antiques started to arrive from England. This was at the time of Prohibition, and after the first two consignments, the last item to be packed was always a chest of drawers full of bottles of whiskey so that when the New York Customs Officer (an Irishman called Pat) whose job it was to certify that the items being imported were antiques and, under American law, not subject to import duty broke the seal and opened the container he was presented with a couple of bottles and he went off home and took the day off. The reputation of Needhams spread rapidly amongst other New York dealers and a number of them would gather outside the shop when a new delivery arrived and consequently a lot of very nice pieces were sold on the pavement before even being delivered! Interestingly, every shipment included a couple of dozen butlers' trays which were very sought after at the time, and the profit on these alone covered the cost of packing and shipping including insurance for the whole container load! This must have been a very exciting time to be in New York and Victor was entertained by clients at The Cotton Club on 142nd Street and was served whisky poured from tea pots! The stock market crash and the subsequent Depression put an abrupt end to the booming business and the Needhams pulled out and Victor came back to rejoin his father in Manchester, leaving all the remaining stock with the shop assistant - Jack Trelevean - who paid the Needhams for each item as he sold it. Jack survived the Depression and kept the Needham name and went on to become one of the most successful dealers in New York. In the mid-thirties Victor opened up his own business in St Anne's Square in Manchester, and on one occasion during the Second World War the shop windows were blown in during an air raid. During the early 1950s he transferred the business to Bournemouth and his premises soon became a regular calling shop for the London Trade and collectors in the area. One of these customers was Laurence Olivier , before he was knighted, who purchased a very nice secretaire bookcase. As a result Victor ended up having tea with Vivien Leigh - I wish I could have been a fly on the wall! I was fortunate to join the firm in 1961 and was able to witness the passing cavalcade of devoted collectors from every walk of life, as well as the London Mandarins of the Trade, who were all drawn to this gentle connoisseur.

These unusually large candlesticks probably date from the reign of William and Mary. The acorn section and the trumpet-shaped element beneath the "drip pan" may be indicative of an English origin, whilst the domed base is a feature more readily associated with Dutch metalwork of the period.

Provenance: The Palais de Chateau d'Eau
King Louis Philippe of France in exile at Claremont, Esher, Surrey
Private collection, London and Devon.
The three pelmets were acquired from Mayorcas Ltd, April 1981 and reunited with the other bed hangings and the runner.
These bed hangings relate to an exceptionally important tapestry carpet which shares the Claremont provenance (photograph available on request).
King Louis Philippe I of France was born at the Palais Royale, Paris, on 6th October 1773 and died at Claremont, Surrey, on 26th August 1850. He was proclaimed King in 1830 after his cousin, Charles X, was forced to abdicate in the wake of the events of the July revolution of that year. His Government, known as the July Monarchy, was dominated by members of the French elite and numerous former Napoleonic officials. His popularity faded as economic conditions in France deteriorated and in 1847 he was forced to abdicate after the outbreak of the Second French Revolution. Fearful of what had happened to Louis XVI the King quickly left Paris under disguise riding in an ordinary cab under the name of "Mr Smith". He fled to England and was given permission to live at Claremont by Queen Victoria. The house was originally a wedding present to George IV's daughter, Princess Charlotte and her husband Prince Leopold of Saxe-Coburg. Louis Philippe and his Queen, Marie Amelie, were parents-in-law to Leopold I of Belgium.
The Gobelins and the Beauvais tapestry works were great rivals. Work continued at both factories until the French Revolution. The Gobelins factory was revived during the Bourbon Restoration and in 1826, the manufacture of carpets was added to that of tapestry. This suite of bed hangings and the associated runner were probably made to celebrate the Coronation of King Louis Philippe I in 1830.

Duke’s AUCTIONEERS SINCE 1823
Glossary of Cataloguing Terms The auctioneers are always pleased to discuss individual lots with prospective purchasers prior to the auction and will provide condition reports on request. If you require clarification of any terms employed in the catalogue please do not hesitate to seek advice. The auctioneers are also pleased to discuss lots which may have been altered, repaired, or restored. The term basically used in conjunction with a date (ie. basically 18th century) indicates that, in our opinion, the item may have undergone restoration, repair, or alteration. It also indicates that only an element of the piece may date from the period stated in the description. The absence of the term basically does not imply that an item is without restoration, repair, or alteration. The use of inverted comas around a word or phrase (ie. “pearl”) indicates that the piece, or object, may not be what it is purporting to be. (ie. a simulated pearl). If you are in doubt our specialists are available prior to the auction to offer guidance and advice. With Chinese ceramics and works of art, if the catalogue states that the object in question bears a mark, but it does not state “and of the period” it indicates that we believe the lot in question may not date from the period suggested by the mark. Clearly, references to the colour of jade are subjective and again buyers are advised to inspect personally any items on which they intend to bid to ensure the colour meets with their expectation. Care is taken to ensure that any statement as to authorship, attribution, origin, date and provenance is reliable and accurate, but all such statements of opinion and are not to be taken as statement or representations of fact. Hy. Dukes & Son reserve the right, in forming their opinion, to consult and rely upon any expert or authority reasonably considered by them to be reliable. Descriptions of property in this catalogue do not always indicate condition, repair or damage. Buyers are earnestly advised to inspect personally any lot they intend to purchase. Weights and measurements are approximate and should be verified by intending purchasers
Paintings, Drawings and Prints A work catalogued with the forename(s) and surname or recognised designation of an artist is, in our opinion, a work by the artist, e.g. NICHOLAS CHEVALIER Attributed to NICHOLAS CHEVALIER ... in our opinion a work of the period of the artist which may be in whole or in part the work of the artist.
Manner of NICHOLAS CHEVALIER ... in our opinion a work executed in the style of the artist but of a later date.
Studio of NICHOLAS CHEVALIER ... in our opinion a work by an unknown hand, which may have been executed in the studio of the artist.
After NICHOLAS CHEVALIER ... in our opinion a copy of any date after a work by the artist.
Circle of NICHOLAS CHEVALIER ... in our opinion a work from the period of the artist and showing his influence. Follower of NICHOLAS CHEVALIER ... in our opinion a work executed in the style of the artist but not necessarily by a pupil.
Signed/inscribed/dated NICHOLAS CHEVALIER ... in our opinion the work has been signed/inscribed/dated by the artist. Bears signature/inscription/date NICHOLAS CHEVALIER ... in our opinion the signature/inscription/date are probably not by the. hand of the artist.
The addition of a question mark after any of the cataloguing terms in the above glossary indicates an element of doubt. The term 'ascribed to' may in certain cases be used to denote a traditional attribution based on style. A work catalogued as 'School' accompanied by the name of a place or country and a date mean that in our opinion the work was executed at that time and in that location, e.g. Dutch School, circa 1700. All reference to signatures, inscriptions and dates refer to the present state of work, i.e. as at the time of inspection for the purpose of cataloguing.
The use of onverted comas around the name of an artist, or date, in connetion with a signature, or inscription (ie. signed “Nicholas Chevalier”) indicates that the signature, or inscription, may have been added by another hand.
Artist’s Resale Right From mid February 2006 living artists are entitled by law to receive a resale royalty each time their work is resold by or to an art market professional. From 1st January 2012 the Right has been extended to include sales of works by artists who have died within the last 70 years (following the existing term of copyright). Royalties will be payable to the families and beneficiaries of these artists. An art work must be resold for more than 1,000 Euros to qualify for the right. The rates payable are calculated as a percentage of the hammer price and are set out in a sliding scale from 4% to 0.25%. The charge is exclusive of VAT. The auctioneers reserve the right to pass all of the cost to the person buying the qualifying art work
JEWELLERY The contents of any gemmological certificates accompanying lots in this sale are not guaranteed by Duke’s Auctioneers and we cannot be held responsible for any disagreement over the contents of the certificates after the sale, or for a retrospective change in opinion by the certificate issuer. All weights and measurements provided are approximate only. Prospective purchasers should assume that all coloured stones sold by Duke’s Auctioneers have been treated unless otherwise stated to the contrary in the catalogue description. Stones are commonly treated to enhance their colour and clarity. Sapphires and rubies are commonly heat treated and emeralds commonly oiled. Jade/jadeite is often bleached, polymer/resin filled or dyed. Please contact Duke’s for more clarification on treatment in individual lots. Items containing rubies or jade/jadeite of Burmese origin are not permitted 196 for import by the USA.

THE PURCHASE PRICE The buyer shall pay the hammer price together with a premium thereon of 22% plus VAT on the premium at the rate imposed by law.
5
VALUE ADDED TAX Value Added Tax on the hammer price is imposed by law on all items affixed with an asterisk or double asterisk. Value Added Tax is charged at the appropriate rate prevailing by law at the date of sale and is payable by buyers of relevant Lots. *VAT payable at 5.00% on the hammer price and 20% on the buyers premium.
6 PAYMENT (1) Immediately a Lot is sold you will: (a) give to us, if requested, proof of identity, and (b) pay to us the total amount due in cash or in such other way as is agreed by us. (2) Any payments by you to us may be applied by us towards any sums owing from you to us on any account whatever without regard to any directions of you or your agent, whether express or implied. (3) The Auctioneer may require a deposit of 5% of the hammer price immediately. If the buyer is unable to meet this requirement to the Auctioneer’s satisfaction they reserve the right to cancel the sale immediately. 7 TITLE AND COLLECTION OF PURCHASES (1) The ownership of any Lots purchased shall not pass to you until you have made payment in full to us of the total amount due. (2) You shall at your own risk and expense take away any lots that you have purchased and paid for not later than 3 working days following the day of the auction or upon the clearance of any cheque used for payment after which you shall be responsible for any removal, storage and insurance charges. (3) No purchase can be claimed or removed until it has been paid for. 8 REMEDIES FOR NON-PAYMENT OR FAILURE TO COLLECT PURCHASES (1) If any Lot is not paid for in full and taken away in accordance with these Conditions or if there is any other breach of these Conditions, we, as agent for the seller and on our own behalf, shall at our absolute discretion and without prejudice to any other rights we may have, be entitled to exercise one or more of the following rights and remedies: (a) to proceed against you for damages for breach of contract; (b) to rescind the sale of that Lot and/or any other Lots sold by us to you; (c) to resell the Lot (by auction or private treaty) in which case you shall be responsible for any resulting deficiency in the total amount due (after crediting any part payment and adding any resale costs). Any surplus so arising shall belong to the seller; (d) to remove, store and insure the Lot at your expense and, in the case of storage, either at our premises or elsewhere; (e) to charge interest at a rate not exceeding 1.5% per month on the total amount due to the extent it remains unpaid for more than 3 working days after the sale; (f) to retain that or any other Lot sold to you until you pay the total amount due; (g) to reject or ignore bids from you or your agent at future auctions or to impose conditions before any such bids shall be accepted; (h) to apply any proceeds of sale of other Lots due or in future becoming due to you towards the settlement of the total amount due and to exercise a lien (that is a right to retain possession of) any of your property in our possession for any purpose until the debt due is satisfied.
THIRD PARTY LIABILITY All members of the public on our premises are there at their own risk and must note the lay-out of the accommodation and security arrangements. Accordingly neither the auctioneer nor our employees or agents shall incur liability for death or personal injury (except as required by law by reason of our negligence) or similarly for the safety of the property of persons visiting prior to or at a sale.
10 COMMISSION BIDS Whilst prospective buyers are strongly advised to attend the auction and are always responsible for any decision to bid for a particular Lot and shall be assumed to have carefully inspected and satisfied themselves as to its condition we will if so instructed clearly and in writing execute bids on their behalf. Neither the auctioneer nor our employees or agents shall be responsible for any failure to do so save where such failure is unreasonable. Where two or more commission bids at the same level are recorded we reserve the right in our absolute discretion to prefer the first bid so made. 11 WARRANTY OF TITLE AND AVAILABILITY The seller warrants to the auctioneer and you that the seller is the true owner of the property consigned or is properly authorised by the true owner to consign it for sale and is able to transfer good and marketable title to the property free from any third party claims.
13 TERMS OF SALE The seller acknowledges that Lots are sold subject to the stipulations of these Conditions in their entirety and on the Terms of Consignment as notified to the consignor at the time of the entry of the Lot. 14 DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITION (1) Whilst we seek to describe lots accurately, it may be impractical for us to carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot. Prospective buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description applied to a lot. Prospective buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably held and accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we the auctioneer nor our employees or agents nor the seller accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and all conditions and warranties, whether relating to description, condition or quality of lots, express, implied or statutory, are hereby excluded. This Condition is subject to the next following Condition concerning deliberate forgeries and applies save as provided for in paragraph 6 “information to buyers”. (2) Private treaty sales made under these Conditions are deemed to be sales by auction for purposes of consumer legislation. 15 FORGERIES Notwithstanding the preceding Condition, any Lot which proves to be a deliberate forgery (as defined) may be returned to us by you within 21 days of the auction provided it is in the same condition as when bought, and is accompanied by particulars identifying it from the relevant catalogue description and a written statement of defects. If we are satisfied from the evidence presented that the Lot is a deliberate forgery we shall refund the money paid by you for the Lot including any buyer’s premium provided that (1) if the catalogue description reflected the accepted view of scholars and experts as at the date of sale or (2) you personally are not able to transfer a good and marketable title to us, you shall have no rights under this condition. The right of return provided by this Condition is additional to any right or remedy provided by law or by these Conditions of Sale. 16 GENERAL We shall have the right at our discretion, to refuse admission to our premises or attendance at our auctions by any person. (1) any right to compensation for losses liabilities and expenses incurred in respect of and as a result of any breach of these Conditions and any exclusions provided by them shall be available to the seller and/or the auctioneer as appropriate. (2). Such rights and exclusions shall extend to and be deemed to be for the benefit of employees and agents of the seller and/or the auctioneer who may themselves enforce them. (3) Any notice to any buyer, seller, bidder or viewer may be given by first class mail or Swiftmail in which case it shall be deemed to have been received by the addressee 48 hours after posting. (4) Special terms may be used in catalogue descriptions of particular classes of items in which case the descriptions must be interpreted in accordance with any glossary appearing at the commencement of the catalogue. (5) Any indulgence extended to bidders buyers or sellers by us notwithstanding the strict terms of these Conditions or of the Terms of Consignment shall affect the position at the relevant time only and in respect of that particular concession only; in all other respects these Conditions shall be construed as having full force and effect. (6) English law applies to the interpretation of these Conditions. 16 DEBIT AND CREDIT CARDS Due to problems with fraudulent debit and credit card transactions payments over the telephone cannot be made for invoices totalling more than £200 unless the Buyers are known to Duke’s. Payment can be made in person using a chip and pin number, bank transfer, cash up to £9,000, or cheque (allow six working days for clearance).

Intending purchasers are asked to instruct their bank to contact the Auctioneer’s bank (Natwest, 49 South Street, Dorchester) as early as possible, to confirm clearance in writing up to a stated maximum amount to ensure that a cheque will be accepted on sale day. A Banker’s Draft, a Building Society cheque or cash will be required to allow removal of goods on sale day. Purchasers may not otherwise remove goods until their cheques are cleared by the Auctioneers’ bank.

THIRD PARTY LIABILITY Any person or his personal property at or on the auctioneers premises, before, during, or after the auction, shall be deemed to be there at their own risk and will have no claim against the auctioneers in respect of any injury sustained, or accident which may occur. IMPORTANT NOTICE TO BUYERS OF FURNITURE All items are held at the risk of the Buyer. If they are not removed within 5 working days of the sale the Auctioneers will instruct a carrier to remove them to storage. The Buyer will be responsible for paying the aforementioned carrier all charges incurred and for making arrangements in advance for the removal of items from their store after payment of their charges on production of our reciept for the items. IMPORTANT NOTICE TO BUYERS OF WILDLIFE MATERIAL Property made of or incorporating (irrespective of percentage) endangered and other protected species of wildlife, including but not limited to, ivory, tortoiseshell, crocodile skin, rhinoceros horn, whalebone and certain species of coral, together with Brazilian rosewood, may require permits or certificates (e.g. a CITES permit) from the relevant regulatory agencies to be exported or imported. Prospective purchasers are also advised that some countries prohibit altogether the importation as well as exportation of such materials. Accordingly, clients should familiarise themselves with the relevant customs laws and regulations prior to bidding on any property with wildlife material if they intend to import the property into another country. Please note that it is the client’s responsibility to determine and satisfy the requirements of any applicable laws or regulations applying to the export or import of property containing endangered or protected wildlife material. The inability of a client to export or import property containing endangered or protected wildlife material is not a basis for cancellation or rescission of the sale.
