The buxton collection of engraved gla ss

James Buxton began his collection in 1967 whilst a stallholder in the Portobello Antiques Market, London, in his gap year prior to reading economics and law at Cambridge University. Since then he has steadily built up the collection through purchases from private sources, the salerooms and dealers, including Delomosne & Co. The collection is strictly confined to commemorative engraved glass, rather than engraved glass that is purely decorative. The subject matter of the engraving on the glasses comprising the collection includes politics, trade and commerce, royalty, racing, distinguished buildings, sport and military history. Of the universally high quality of the glass for sale, the glasses of exceptional interest include the superb glass acquired from the late Christopher Sheppard, recorded as being "cut made and engraved" in Newcastle, a principal centre for glass manufacture in the 18th. and 19th. centuries (Lot 56); the two Davenport glasses commemorating shooting and fishing (Lots 10 and 11); the highly unusual glass depicting the Battle of Waterloo (Lot 27); and the glass commemorating the supporters of George III who opposed independence for America, of which no comparable glass is thought to exist (Lot 8). The collection, if not actually unique, is certainly highly unusual and provides an excellent opportunity to acquire glasses of outstanding quality."

27 A LARGE AN IMPORTANT BATTLE OF WATERLOO RUMMER, the flared bowl cut with flutes below an engraved frieze of the battle scene, the reverse with an urn of flowers, on a knopped stem and circular foot, c.1840, 9Â˝" high, 6" dia.

In the background, a figure points his risen hat towards the enemy, perhaps representing the Duke of Wellington commanding his troops to the final advance. In the foreground a man, leaning on his sword for support, is helped to his feet by a comrade. This probably represents Field Marshal Henry William Paget, 1st Marquess of Anglesey, whose leg was severely damaged on the final day of the battle. According to anecdote, upon injury Paget exclaimed, "By God, sir, I've lost my leg!", to which Wellington replied, "By God, sir, so you have!".

In forming this composition the engraver would probably have drawn on numerous accounts of the Duke of Wellington's celebrated victory over Napoleon at the Battle of Waterloo. One example of such a source is George Cruickshank's "Historical Account of the Battle of Waterloo", published 1817, which contained plans, maps and engraved views of the battle. In addition, contemporary prints of the battle were in wide circulation at the time.

Cf: For a coin rummer of similar form dated 1843, see Charles Hajdermach, "British Glass 1800-1914" (Woodbridge, 1991), p. 152, pl. 116. For another rummer of related form engraved with Neptune and signed, T. Hudson, Newcastle, see Hugh Wakefield, "Nineteenth Century British Glass" (London, 1982), p. 84, pl. 80

Lot 30

Young Dutch Sam is best known as being Welterweight Champion of the World in the 1820's. At only 5'6", his considerable punching power allowed him to fight larger opponents. In an era when most boxers fought 20-25 times in a career, Dutch Sam had approximately 100 bouts, losing only twice.

The inscription and date may be a reference to the visit of William Pitt when as a Prime Minister he was accompanied by King George III to Sandwich to review the troops stationed at the port.

£500-1,000

34 AN UNUSUAL COMMEMORATIVE GLASS GOBLET, the large bell shaped bowl engraved with the Lincoln Bell of Lincoln Cathedral between "THE GREAT / OF LINCOLN", the reverse with a sunflower and insects, on a plain stem and circular foot, c.1750, 7½" high, 3¾" dia. 22

The inscription alludes to Frederick II ("The Great"), King of Prussia, 1712-86. Frederick II waged the Seven Years War against the coalition of France and the Holy Roman Empire. Frederick's Prussian troops decisively defeated the allied armies at the Battle of Rossbach, 5th November 1757, whereupon he became an English national hero and the leading defender of Protestantism in Europe.

Although rare today, many English drinking glasses were engraved with toasts to Frederick's health and to the success of his forces.

Beeswing raced at many venues between 1835 and 1842 and was a real crowd favourite. Entering 63 events, she won an astonishing 51 times. Of the 57 races she finished, she was placed lower than second only once. Her most notable victory was in the Ascot Gold Cup of 1842. She won the Newcastle Cup no fewer than six times and was retired after winning the Doncaster Cup for the fourth time.

Another in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford. In 1805 Jacobs advertised in Felix Farley's Bristol Journal "Coats Of Arms, Crests and Cypers done upon (Dessert Sets) in the greatest style, by some of the finest Artists in the Kingdom".

A paragraph from "English and Irish Antique Glass", by Derek C. Davis States: "The most famous name associated with the history of Bristol glass was that of the Jacobs family. Isaac and Lazarus Jacobs completed their best works between 1771 and 1806. Isaac, in fact, was the bestknown glassmaker in the West Country and he is the only craftsman known to have signed his own productions of glass, in gilt, as "I. Jacobs". There are only comparatively few signed specimens known and they are now very rare indeed. In the Bristol Museum there are some signed pieces on view, and this collection forms a most useful basis for the study of Bristol glass.".

TWO IMPORTANT CHARLES GOUYN ‘GIRL-IN-A-SWING’ FIGURE GROUPS

Lot 211 is visible in an early photograph of Mrs Edward Harrison Solly (nee Cornish) in the drawing room at Bells House, Colehill, Wimborne Minster, Dorset dating from around 1900.

These exceptionally rare porcelain groups (lots 211 and 212) were manufactured by Charles Gouyn at The Turk’s Head, Bennett Street, St. James’s, London. Gouyn helped Nicholas Sprimont set up the Chelsea Porcelain Factory, but around 1748 he severed his links and set up his own manufactury referred to by early 20th century scholars as “Girl-in-a-swing” porcelain, so called after a figure in the Victoria and Albert Museum. These documentary porcelain groups have descended in the same family since they were made. Isaac Solly (1724-1802) was a successful London merchant in the Baltic Trade. His son Samuel (1774-1847) married Dorothea Rackett, the daughter of Thomas Rackett. Thomas Rackett was Executor to Eva Marie Garrick (the widow of David Garrick). Their only surviving daughter Thomasine, married Chevalier Enrico Crisperi St. Clair, but they had no issue, so when Thomasine died in 1881 all their possessions went to the then head of the family, Edward Harrison Solly. Since Thomas Rackett was Eva Garrick’s Executor and residuary beneficiary it raises the tantalising possibility that these rare survivals may have originated from the Garricks. Indeed, the vendor's family retain many artefacts with a definite and proven Garrick provenance. 64

211 A CHARLES GOUYN ST. JAMES'S FACTORY PASTORAL FIGURE GROUP, the lady cradling a lamb on her lap, seated beside a tree stump, a man sitting beside her with his hand raised to the lamb's chin, c. 1750-54, probably London decorated prior to 1755, 5Âź" high.

Provenance: By descent in the family of the vendor since the 18th century (lots 211-219)

For a similar example see "Chelsea Porcelain" by Elizabeth Adams, p.48, pl.35. A comparable pair of these figural groups may be seen in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Another group is in the Collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum.

A STATUE FROM THE HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT

Lot 781

780 JOHN THOMAS (1813-1862) Under the direction of Sir Charles Barry (1795-1860) AN ANSTON STONE STATUE OF QUEEN VICTORIA holding an orb, the reverse with a bronze fixing and inscribed "Southwick", 68" high. See illustration

Provenance: The Houses of Parliament. The Gladstone family at Moortown House, Ringwood, Hampshire. Private Collection, Hampshire. John Thomas (1813-1862) was Superintendent of StoneCarving at the Houses of Parliament (Cf. MH Port: “The Houses of Parliament”, published for the Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art 1976, pg. 243, pl. 164. for a reproduction of the wash drawing for the statue of Queen Victoria by John Thomas). It was under his supervision that the Gothic-style statues for the exterior of the building were supplied by the Thames Bank Workshop. On pg. 245 of the same volume, Port states: “It is impossible to make out individual contributors to the architectural sculpture”, but from this inscribed example it would appear that Southwick was one of them.

John Thomas was born in Gloucestershire and his earliest employment in that locality was restoring the lettering and sometimes the sculptural decoration of gravestones, which gave him experience of an important area of Perpendicular Churches. A visit to Oxford focused his attention more specifically on drawing architectural details correctly and developing skill and knowledge as a carver. Then at Birmingham, where his brother was an architect, he worked on a number of large buildings including Barry’s King Edward VI Grammar School and it was as a result of his competence in Gothic detailing that he came to Barry’s notice. Although Thomas was not officially appointed Superintendent of Stone-Carving at Westminster until 1846, Barry probably engaged him soon after the completion of the Birmingham school and on 13th May 1841 the Office of Works approved Barry’s arrangement with Thomas for the stone-carving.

Barry’s own contribution to the design of the sculptural programme cannot be in much doubt. He would undoubtedly have drawn up the overall plan subsequently delegating certain specific areas to qualified specialists.

Precise dating for the various elements of the sculptural programme is not easy. Specific contemporary references to the sculpture are rare and often incidental, but it is possible to propose an outline chronology. Ryde’s “Illustrations” of 1849 shows this statue flanked by Justice and Mercy and writes of the sculpture of the porch as if it were in situ.

Footnote:This appears to a variant of the popular ‘No. 9’ dining table which was in production between 1908 and 1939. The standard version of the design which formed part of Heals ground breaking ‘Simple Cottage Furniture’ range appears to be identical with the exception of the attractive extended border on this example. See Heal, O. ‘Sir Ambrose Heal and the Heal Cabinet Factory’ p58 and p184.
