Literature: The Caughley Society, Caughley Blue and White Patterns, p.98 and Woolley & Wallis cat. No 534 30/11/04. The mark on this dish is an interesting one, being different from most - looking almost like a mark one would expect of Worcester with the addition of a serif. The shape, however, confirms that this is £150 - £250 indeed Caughley.

Lot 15 6
Literature: See Ironbridge 1999 nos. 380 or 381 and The Caughley Society, Caughley Blue and White Patterns, p.157 where the stand is illustrated. Furthermore Geoffrey Godden wrote an article in the ECC journal on a pair of these tureens, of which this is one. Godden goes on to say, ‘Two tureens with their stands are the only pieces known with this pattern, their attribution as Caughley being based on their shape. This suggests that there may have been a dessert service dating from the latter part of the 1780s, which, if the tureens are anything to £500 - £700 go by, would have been of excellent quality’.

Literature: Newsletter May 2016 66 p.19. Chestnuts have been eaten since prehistoric times and were an important dietary staple since they could be cooked and eaten fresh from September through November when they were harvested. As recently as the 19th century, some Europeans substituted chestnuts for grain products. Dried chestnuts were such a valued staple in the Napoleonic era that the Italian government actually placed a tax on them, while the chestnut trees were £1,500 - £2,000 counted like residents in the official census.

The majority of these pieces were purchased from a Phillips Sale on 15/9/99 as lot 198, ‘From the collection of Lord Lilford’, sale 30807 (illustrated in the sale catalogue). This is a very interesting service as it is an example of the earlier, twenty-four reeded shape. A comparison of the teapot in this lot can be made between collection no. 386. The teapot in this is an early barrel shape which is not as uniform in design as the later example. A similar teapot also exists in the Shrewsbury £600 - £800 Museum.

Millington.
Lot 65
Literature: This is the only piece of Caughley known to demonstrate this pattern, otherwise better known on hard-paste porcelain from the New Hall factory. A pull from a copper plate has recently been found in the Coalport Rag Book, confirming a Shropshire origin. The Rag Book is held at the Wedgwood Museum and contains patterns from both the Caughley and Coalport factories. The paste of this bowl together with the nature of the potting and the foot-rim suggest a Caughley rather than Coalport origin, although some remain sceptical of this attribution.’ The Caughley Society, Caughley Blue and White Patterns, p.183 has a full page illustration and discussion of this £100 - £150 tea bowl.

Literature: See Ironbridge 1999 no.94, The Caughley Society, Caughley Blue and White Patterns, p.46 and Newsletter December 2004 No.20 p.14f. This is the only recorded definite piece in the Dragon pattern by Caughley. The example recorded in an article by Clifton Roberts was almost certainly Coalport instead.

Literature: Newsletter May 2014 No 58 pp 23-4, and The Caughley Society, Caughley Blue and White Patterns, p.119 where it is noted that this pattern is only known on sucriers, and may have been the standard pattern for sucriers in tea services. £150 - £200

Lot 72
Provenance: The coffee pot Wright Collection no. 535, purchased from Gus Brain in 1997. Though the mark is considerably nearer to the foot rim than other Caughley examples, there is no mistaking the attribution of factory when considering the shape of the handle. The milk jug is Wright Collection no. 328, purchased in 1984 from Rod Jellicoe. See Plate 144 in Godden. This is slightly different with cell border. It belongs to a family of early 24 reed pieces a number of which are in the collection. £100 - £150 19

Provenance: The scallop shell dish is Wright Collection no.470, purchased in 1995 from Wright. The bowl is Wright Collection no.122, purchased from ‘BD’ in 1975. The bowl in particular is a £100 - £150 very rare shape.

Literature: See both Newsletters August 2009 No.39 p.5 and 2008 No.36 p.11. This is an unusual to find with the cover; a similar example appearing in the 1999 Exhibition, no.465 without a cover where it is described as a ‘breakfast bowl’. A smaller one in the same exhibition, no.188 is described as a ‘broth bowl’. This example contains a notch for a spoon or a ladle so the £300 - £400 description of tureen seems a reasonable one. Lot 96 A CAuGHLeY POWDeR BLue TuReeN PAINTeD WITH A HeART-PANeLLeD LANDSCAPe PATTeRN, lacking cover, circa 1776-80, C mark, 10.2cm wide (badly a.f), together with a further Caughley tureen and cover, circa 1788-1795, painted with the Carnation pattern, 14.5cm wide (chipped and cracked) (2) Provenance: The heart panelled example is Wright Collection no.635, purchased in 2000 from R. Sillito. This could be noted as a third powder blue pattern by Caughley, distinguished by the shape of the panels and perhaps the scenes within them. Furthermore, both the shape of the tureen and its handles are of interest. This is the only example of the pattern. The Carnation tureen is Wright Collection no.883, purchased from Bonhams in 2011. It is also ex Godden Collection. For a discussion of powder blue wares, see Newsletter November 2009 No.40.

Literature: See CP, page 7, no.71 for a similar ice cup described, where the author notes, ‘These pieces are more usually described as Artichoke cups, but the Chamberlain accounts for 9th October, 1979, record the purchase of 6 ice-cups and covers, Artichoke pattern, at 1/6, which would seem to suggest that the use of ‘Artichoke’ in the context of these accounts refers to the shape of £150 - £200 these small vessels rather than the usage.

Lot 151 A RARe BLue AND WHITe ‘JOHN HILL’ eLeCTION JuG, c.1796, Caughley or early John Rose Coalport, each side inscribed ‘Honour and Honesty. John Hill for Ever. Prosperity to the House of Hawkstone’, beneath the spout with the legend ‘Majority of 44 in the Year 1796’, 22cm high (small chip to the tip of the spout)
Lot 150
This was a closely fought election campaign between William and his brother John Hill and was dubbed a ‘family contest ... sprung from a pique’ and the brothers attempted to buy votes with ale, food and more. The controversial Shrewsbury election of 1796 did not in fact result in a victory for John Hill, as the inscription on this jug suggests. John Hill’s claimed ‘’Majority of 44’’ was reached by adding spoilt ballot papers to his valid votes, and amounted only to a majority over his younger kinsman, William Hill, rather than to the overall victor, William Pulteney. The confusion regarding attribution of the jug itself lies in the closeness of the two factories and the fact that several moulds exist. It is possible that both factories produced these Election jugs, although it has sometimes been quoted as the earliest known dated Coalport porcelain. Ex Wright Collection.

ith a medium as visual and tactile as ceramics, colour plays such an important role. And there are so many ways in which colour can be utilized, applied or manipulated in the making of pottery and porcelain. One may rely on the colour of the clay itself, as found in the range of hues available to the yixing potters; from dark chocolate brown through rich terracotta red to purple, blue and green. Then there are coloured glazes like those of sancai pottery in bright and translucent yellows, greens and browns. After glazing there is a whole world of enamels, metal oxide colours, which can be painted on and fired, such as the jewel-like colours found in doucai porcelain. A great example of this last type can be found in the present auction; the Empress Vase (lot 358, estimate £3,000-5,000). Believed to date to the Daoguang period (1821-1850) and of pear form with a wide rim at the top, a shape known as yuhuchunping, it is decorated with magnolias, peonies and pheasants, symbols representing the Empress as well as female beauty, purity, honour and richness. The colour red has, of course, connotations in more recent Chinese history but was considered important throughout the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Copper oxide was used to great effect in combination with underglaze cobalt but also as a complete glaze during the Yuan and early Ming Dynasty. The technique was revived with ‘sang-de-boeuf’ or ‘oxblood’ glazes during the Kangxi and Yongzheng reigns which are among the most striking and beautiful of the monochromes. Later in the Qing Dynasty (1644-1912), a combination of reactive copper oxide and a reduction firing created beautiful effects of rich red streaked with mottled purples and blues, a technique known as ‘flambé’. A large and impressing Hu form vase in this auction (lot 388, estimate £500-800) demonstrates this type of glaze perfectly with a glorious balance between deep red, streaky blue-green and the fawn colour of the clay beneath. Arguably the most deeply significant colour to Chinese culture is yellow. The reason for this is that before the amalgamation of all the various provinces within China, power was held in the state occupying an area around a bend in the Yellow River in the center of the country, to which all other states submitted. It is from this that the term ‘Middle Kingdom’ is derived, and thus the colour yellow represents China itself. The similarity between the term for emperor ‘Huangti’ and that of yellow ‘Huangse’ as spoken, formed an association between the two so that the colour came to represent the emperor himself. In Chinese porcelain and other works, the colour yellow was, therefore, reserved for imperial objects. The beautiful flower-moulded bowl in this auction (lot 393, estimate £20,000-30,000) is suffused with a rich lemon yellow ground and bears a seal mark for the emperor Daoguang (1821-1850). It originates from the collection of Pong Wing Shiu, a prominent educator in Hong Kong and connoisseur of Chinese porcelain. An identical bowl, but with an earlier Jiaqing reign mark, can be found in the National Palace Museum, Beijing. Perhaps no colour other than blue can so instantly and completely conjure the very finest examples of Chinese porcelain. Contrasting and working in concert with the pure white of the fired clay, cobalt blue is the quintessential element of Chinese ornament. From its earliest beginnings in the Yuan Dynasty (1279-1368), blue and white has been a medium equally adaptable to the most elaborate and finely rendered Imperial works to the every-day simplicity of domestic storage and decorative export ware. In this auction there is a particularly good range of blue and white from the Yuan Dynasty ‘Yi’ vessels (lots 337 and 338, estimate £10,000-15,000 each) to the very large and impressive pair of 18th Century tianqiuping vases (lot 335, estimate £8,000-12,000).

The Appliance of Science Halls director Jeremy Lamond explores Victorian scientific instruments
H107-099 Day Two.qxp_Layout 1 07/11/2017 12:01 Page 89
s we all marvel at the latest spectacular photography and images from Sir David Attenborough’s Blue Planet 2, it is important to remember that many of the things we know about the natural world came from pioneering Victorians and their scientific instruments. In this section of the sale, we are favoured with a good private collection of instruments, some Victorian, some later, which were used for a variety of tasks from finding your position at sea to soothing your limbs with low volume electric shocks! I particularly like Lot 616, the 18th century 3 inch brass reflecting telescope by John Baddely of Albrighton, a local maker of some renown and mentioned in Shaw’s Staffordshire as a superior clockmaker. This is a rare survivor and will surely outstrip its estimate of £100/150. There is also an interesting collection of Victorian slides in a mahogany box (Lot 635) and a nice microscope by Salmon (Lot 619) with which to view them. If practical science is not your thing, then why not enjoy the amazing kaleidoscope on stand (Lot 623) with its ship’s wheel style adjusting ring and six pointed star radial image? It may just make a refreshing change from staring at the constant barrage of social media on your mobile phone! As Christmas approaches, this might be the time to buy your reindeer early – the stag’s head offered in Lot 608 is certainly a conversation piece and I am sure will have many admirers. There is plenty to see in this section but don’t forget to have a look at the unusual coco de mer, Seychelles bowl (Lot 705) or the novelty cold painted Vienna bronze inkwell (Lot 707). Amazing what you can find at auction and there is plenty to see at this one! Have fun!

All weights stated in the catalogue are approximate only, these figures are for reference only and prospective buyers should satisfy themselves as to the accuracy. Prospective buyers are reminded that coloured gemstones have historically been treated to enhance their appearance. A variety of methods have been, and are currently used to improve both transparency and colour of various gemstones. All yellow and white metals have not been tested. The International Jewellery Trade generally accept these methods. It is not possible for Halls to obtain gemmological reports on all stones offered for sale and therefore all Halls Holding’s estimates assume that gemstones have been enhanced.
IMPORTANT NOTICE TO BOOK BUYERS Prospective buyers should be aware that general wear to include; creasing, light foxing, small tears, bumped corners, worn boards or weak spine/joints, will not be specified in the catalogue descriptions. Any substantial losses/wear to include detached boards, detached spines or extensive graffiti will be described as ‘at fault’. Prospective buyers must satisfy themselves with a condition report prior to bidding, Halls Holdings can take no responsibility for condition of purchased lots if condition reports were not requested.
IMPORTANT NOTICE Although every effort is made to note damage and restoration, the absence of such information does not imply that the lot is free from defects. Detailed condition reports and email images can be obtained on request until 4.00pm the day prior to the sale.

19th July 2017– Sale Report
The Asian Art market, whilst not at the dizzy heights of 2008/9, it is still very active for the right pieces and on 19th July, Halls Fine Art had plenty of them. Of the top ten sale results, seven were for Chinese lots and the majority of them were bought by Chinese nationals with one or two going to London and France. Star of the show was undoubtedly Lot 117 a large and impressive blue and white bottle vase or tianqiuping which had been hiding away in a Southport warehouse for over forty years. Although the neck was extensively damaged and some pieces were missing, the bottle vase had the seal mark of the emperor Yongzheng and bore similarities to recorded examples in the National Palace Museums of Beijing and Taipei. Pre-sale interest was high, despite the damage which had led the auctioneers to a cautious estimate of £6,000/10,000. On the day however, there was stiff competition between several telephones with a Chinese buyer finally winning the battle at £150,000. This exceptional result prompted Asian Art specialist Alexander Clement to remind people that the next big find might just be lurking in the corner of their attic! Asian Art success continued apace with a Chinese export ‘Hongs of Canton’ punchbowl which had been brought in to one of Halls’ regular Monday morning valuation days. This bowl had been heavily restored although displayed a wonderful ‘en grisaille’ view of the waterfront at Canton showing the European ‘hongs’ or trading houses, one of which was flying a very early American flag. The bowl sparked intense interest, despite the damage and quickly surpassed an estimate of £3500/4500 to take £27,000 from the London trade. Antiques in pairs always seem to outperform single itemspairs of antique mirrors for instance are better than a single example in most cases. Here a pair of Chinese hardstone and mother-of-pearl inlaid ‘playing boys’ cabinets on stands dated to the 19th century soon outshone their estimate of £3000/4000 to sell for £12,000 to the Chinese mainland trade. The day was not all dedicated to Chinese artefacts and one or two other categories happily slipped into the four figure category. A mid-18th century mahogany lowboy with a well carved apron and cabriole legs was thought by some to have Irish origins. Estimated at £1500/2000 it eventually sold on the internet to the Dublin trade for £4200, the fourth highest price of the day. A rare set of Beatles signatures was also popular proving that the ‘Fab Four’ is still fab. Signed on a postcard from the Star Club of Hamburg, the signatures had been added to the card following a concert in Shrewsbury by the Beatles on 23rd April 1963 and were estimated at £1500/2500. On the day they were pursued over the internet and sold to a buyer from New York for £2700. Other notable results include £3,800 for an Empire style marble top commode, £3,600 for a diminutive Chinese cloisonné Qianlong mark and period vase, £3,000 for a Chinese jade and mixed metal hand mirror and £2,700 for a Chinese inlaid rosewood table.
