pictures siLver And jeweLLery sALe report, 27th june What have a late 16th century portrait of Sir Philip Sydney and an Edwardian diamond set pendant got in common? On the face of it, not very much although on 27th June both these articles shared the same hammer price of £21,000 at Halls’ tri-annual Pictures, Silver and Jewellery sale. The portrait of Sir Philip Sydney, from a south Shropshire estate, had a good provenance having been sold as part of Lord northwick’s collection at Christies in 1866 and also been with Hammersley galleries, Harpenden in 1968. Dated 1580 and inscribed ‘Atatis Suae 27’, the portrait showed Sir Philip, half length, wearing a ruff collar and staring unsmiling from the canvas. Known as a soldier poet in an age of soldier poets, Sir Philip was perhaps best known for his poem Astrophel and Stella, inspired it is said, by Penelope Devereux, the future Lady Rich. Sir Philip died tragically young in his early thirties at the Battle of Zutphen, netherlands, part of the Eighty Years War, when he was shot in the thigh and expired twenty one days later. Estimated at a cautious £1,500/2,000, the portrait was the subject of a battle between the London trade and a private collector, the latter finally winning out at £21,000. The diamond pendant, from a local vendor, was a tour de force of sparkling stones ranging between 0.5 carats and 2.5 carats, all set in a pear shape suspended with diamond drops and within a fitted Hennell and Sons case. After strong bidding, the pendant was sold to a local buyer for £21,000. The silver trade continues to thrive in these uncertain times and here an unusual Victorian silver mounted desk stand in the form of a mosque and attributed to Frederick Courthope, London 1898 attracted great interest. Originally in ‘The Exceptional Furniture’ sale at Prees Hall near Whitchurch, March 1966, the desk stand, estimated at £2,000/4,000, sold to the London trade for £8,500 after fierce competition. Canteens of silver flatware are still enduringly popular with the general public and here an extensive canteen of fiddle pattern silver cutlery by William Pope, Exeter 1846 and weighing in at a hefty 191 ounces went back to Exeter when it was sold to an online bidder for £4,000 against hopes of £2,500/3,500. Another service, this time an Elkington and Co twelve setting canteen of rat tail silver cutlery, Birmingham 1932-36 in a fitted box and weighing 134 ounces also sold well at £2,000 whilst a harlequin set of fiddle and thread pattern silver cutlery, London 1836-74 sold to a Cambridge buyer for £2,200. Paintings saw several high prices including £6,000 given by a local buyer for Christopher nevinson’s poignant half- length portrait in oils of a ‘Camden Town kid or Cockney Stoic’ and £5,500 tendered for a Flemish School view of cavalrymen at a forge outside the city walls. Later on in the sale a pretty Myles Birket Foster watercolour of Shrewsbury sold to a Telford buyer for £1,900 and a John Wilson Carmichael oil of Tynemouth Priory on a stormy day also sold locally for £1,800. Elsewhere in the sale a Rolex prince wristwatch sold to a Kent buyer for £2,500,a pair of diamond set cluster earrings took £2,400 from a north Shropshire buyer and an 18carat yellow gold Piaget bracelet wristwatch made an above estimate £2,300. The sale total was £183,000 with over 80% sold and an average lot value of £650

I MPORTANT N OTICE TO J EWELLERY B UYERS
Prospective buyers should note that although every effort is made to note repairs, restoration and damage in the catalogue descriptions, a lack of any such note should not be taken to imply that the lot is in perfect condition. 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.
