7 ATTRIBUTED TO EDWIN OPPLER (1831-1880) GERMAN ARMCHAIR, CIRCA 1860 oak, with later upholstered back, seat and arm pads, with a pierced and carved crest centred by the initial ‘G’, inscribed with the mottos ‘ERNST IST DAS LEBEN’ and ‘HIETER DIE KUNST’ 58.5cm wide, 98.4cm high, 56cm deep Provenance: Possibly Georg V (1819–78) Note: The gothic letter ‘G’ in the shield on the chair’s top rail may indicate its provenance. Georg V was the son of Ernst August I, the eighth child of George III and Queen Charlotte. In 1857 he commissioned Conrad Wilhelm Hase to build the gothic Schloss Marienburg, near Hildesheim, as a gift for his wife Queen Marie, and as a summer residence. In 1864, Hase was succeeded by his pupil Edwin Oppler. Oppler also designed ‘modern gothic’ chairs for Marienburg and these show the influence of Georg Gottlob Ungewitter, for example the designs in his Entwürfe zu Gotischen Möbel, Leipzig, 1851. The projecting leaf carving on the present lot can be compared to that on a bookcase for Marienburg, and an unpublished desk chair, photographed at Schloss Marienburg, has features in common with the present example. The quotation ‘Ernst ist das Leben / Heiter die Kunst’ (life is serious, art is cheerful) is from Friedrich Schiller (1759–1805), Wallenstein, 1800.

61 CHRISTOPHER DRESSER (1834-1904) FOR BENHAM & FROUD, LONDON AESTHETIC MOVEMENT TEA KETTLE & COVER, CIRCA 1880 copper and brass, with riveted decoration and pierced scrollwork base, stamped maker’s mark to base 20.5cm high
£2,000-3,000
Note: This tea kettle was probably produced by Benham & Froud for the Art Furnishers Alliance for which Dresser was the ‘Art Manager’. The design of the kettle was influenced by Dresser’s admiration of Japanese metalwork, evident in the exposed rivet decoration, the distinctive handle and the cut out ‘cloud’ base. In his book of 1882 ‘Japan, its Architecture and Art Manufactures’ Dresser wrote; ‘No people but the Japanese have understood the value of colour in metal compositions….we have never fully realised the fact that by producing metal alloys, and combining these with pure metals, a world of colour is open to us’ In 1873 after visiting the Vienna Exhibition he wrote’ while the kettle is an object of use in every house in the land, we have to go to Japan to learn how to make one as it should be’

Note: Thomas Jeckyll’s collaborations with Barnard Bishop & Barnards first began around 1859 and flourished for several years until 1881. During this time Jeckyll produced many designs for the firm, most notably fireplaces, often in the popular Anglo-Japanese style. The present fire basket bears similarities to one frequently advertised by the firm in their catalogues. The sunflower motifs, in particular, are synonymous with Jeckyll’s work as are the ribbed and arched supports on the andirons which are almost identical to the examples manufactured by the Norwich-based company.

73 Y GABRIEL VIARDOT (1830-1906) FRENCH ‘JAPONISME’ FOLIO STAND, LATE 19TH CENTURY rosewood, with one hinged and one fixed side with relief carved panel, branded facsimile signature G. VIARDOT to the inside leg 77cm wide, 116cm high, 38cm deep
£1,000-1,500
Note: This Asian-inspired folio stand was created as part of the vogue for collecting Japanese prints that swept France (and elsewhere in the West) during the last quarter of the nineteenth century. As is well known, Japan exerted considerable influence on the European avant-garde at this period, both on painters and designers of decorative arts. The present stand would likely have been a special commission for a refined amateur. Viardot was a successful Parisian cabinet-maker whose Asianinspired, carved and often gilt-metal-mounted furniture inspired many followers. He exhibited at World’s fairs between 1867 and 1900.

96 MORRIS & COMPANY (MAKER), HERBERT HORNE (1864-1916) FOR THE CENTURY GUILD (ATTRIBUTED DESIGNER) ARTS & CRAFTS RUG, CIRCA 1884 hand-woven wool, with characteristic knotted fringe 83cm x 128cm Literature: Parry, L., Cathers D., et al., Arts and Crafts Rugs for Craftsman Interiors, New York and London, 2010, cat. no. 8, where a rug of the same pattern is illustrated. Note: In 1875, Morris & Co. began large-scale production of floor coverings, rugs and carpets, designed to complement an ever-popular ‘Morris’ aesthetic in Victorian Britain. A triumph in craftsmanship on an impressive scale, these designs were hailed as some of the finest hand-knotted carpets ever produced in Britain at the time. Morris’ designs were largely inspired by his love of Eastern carpets from Persia Turkey and China, of which he amassed a great deal and used to furnish his own homes, including Red House. Featuring an array of stylised plants and flowers, carefully woven into fields of vibrant colours, the carpets were hugely popular but very expensive to the average customer. As a result, the firm began to manufacture a range of smaller and less costly alternatives to an eager market. Flowerpots were often a feature of these designs, with trailing flowers stemming out from the centre against a cream ground, and a dark blue border. These smaller rugs were frequently used as wall hangings and occasionally placed as bedside rugs in guest bedrooms. In 1884, Morris & Co. also manufactured several designs for The Century Guild; a group of artists associated with the Arts & Crafts movement, who sought to preserve the integrity of the artistic trade and its craftsmen. These rugs were sold in the Morris & Co. shop and advertised in the Guild’s magazine Hobby Horse. Though Morris never had a hand in designing these, they look back to his earlier Hammersmith pieces, featuring simple patterns of flowers and flowerpots. This rug is thought to have been designed by Herbert Horne, one of the founding members of the Guild, alongside A. H. Mackmurdo and Selwyn Image. Linda Parry comments that of ‘the three designers associated with the Guild it is stylistically closest to the work of Herbert Horne’.

Note: Morris & Co. only undertook two public commissions, and this rare repeat fragment of wallpaper comes from one of them - St James’s Palace, London. It was removed during a renovation. The other commission was for the South Kensington Museum. The two are possibly connected “through the influence of Richard Redgrave, who was both on the staff at South Kensington and, in his capacity as Surveyor of the Queen’s Pictures, was reorganising the paintings at St. James’ from 1864 onwards.”

Wood rejected large scale commercial practice and worked with a small number of assistants designing furniture, stained glass, sculpture, metal, and plasterwork as well as buildings. Many commissions were from friends and family Middleton, Huddersfield and Hale, Cheshire. Influenced by the artistic and socialist writings of William Morris, he saw himself as an artisan serving the people of these localities.

Mackmurdo’s Century Guild, set up his company ‘Heatons Cloisonné-Mosaic Ltd’ at 6 Berners Street, London in 1887, a year after selling his share in his father’s lucrative stained glass business Heaton, Butler & Bayne for £4,800. He patented his enamelling technique in 1886, inspired by medieval techniques which precluded the firing process, and which instead used coloured cements: a mixture of resin, beeswax, sulphur marble dust and coloured pigments. Hardening over time, these cements could be polished to give the soft matt finish characteristic of Heaton’s work and seen in the present example.

SELECT PROPERTY FROM CASTLE OF PARK, BANFF, ABERDEENSHIRE
66
CASTLE OF PARK has its origins in the 13th century on land that formed part of the Royal Forest of Banff. The present house comprises a 16th century tower house with extensions dating from the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries, and remained in the same family for some four hundred years. It was eventually sold in the 1970s and passed through several owners, most recently having been purchased by Rebecca Campbell-Wilson and her late husband Neil, who died in 2014. They set about returning it to a family home and creating a more castle-like ambience in keeping with the architecture and history of the property. Neil had worked at Christie’s South Kensington for a decade in the mid-1980s and early 1990s. One of the highlights of his career there was the sale of Penkill Castle in Ayrshire, the home of the pre-Raphaelite painter William Bell Scott and his mistress Alice Boyd. The sale and the castle had a lasting effect on him and not only cemented his predilection for the art and design of the period but his dream of owning a castle in Scotland, eventually satisfied by the purchase of Castle of Park. In 1996 he left Christie’s to become a dealer in Victorian art and developed a reputation for selling British pre-Raphaelite and Symbolist pictures, distinctively presented in bespoke gilt frames. Each exhibition was put together with scholarly and lavish catalogues. Many of the beautifully presented works offered here formed part of this stock, and the furniture and lighting were chosen especially for the castle, which has now been sold.

At this time he also worked as a mason on the new Palace of Westminster.

Seeger Sotheby’s Olympia, Outtakes from the Collection of Stanley J. Seeger, 13th December 2002, Lot 211 Literature: Douglas, James Theodore Watts Dunton: Poet Novelist Critic, Hodder & Stoughton, 1904, pp. 266267. The bookcase in this lot is illustrated in one of the rooms at ‘The Pines’ on page 266.
£1,000-1,500
Note: This bookcase stood in the study of ‘The Pines’, a large Victorian villa in Putney, shared by the poet, playwright, novelist, and critic Algernon Swinburne (1837-1909) and his companion, the poet and critic Theodore Watts-Dunton (1832-1914). A label affixed to the interior of this bookcase reads: ‘These two bookcases which for thirty years were in Swinburne’s study at The Pines are of a special interest. They were designed and executed by Whistler at the conclusion of the settlement of the quarrel of Leyland over the Peacock Room. Watts-Dunton acted as solicitor in the affair & Whistler gave one each of the bookcases to the Housemates at The Pines. Both however find themselves in the study of the Poet. Whistler painted the insects and fr** etc himself’. The bookcase, made up with Japanese lacquered panel ends, can be seen in situ at ‘The Pines’ in a photograph of circa 1904 and later gilt embellishments can also be made out on one of the end panels. The author of the note is unknown but may have been a subsequent owner. The ‘pair’ of bookcases may allude to the fact that the bookcase is double-sided. Another piece of lacquer furniture in the room was a gift from the artist Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828-1882), a friend of Watts-Dunton and it seems that quite several pieces of furniture at ‘The Pines’ were a gift of the artist. “Mr. Watts-Dunton’s allusion to the Rossetti mementoes requires a word of explanation. Rossetti, it seems, was very fond of surprising his friends by un-expected tokens of generosity. I have heard Mr. WattsDunton say that during the week when he was moving into ‘ The Pines,’ he spent as usual Wednesday night at 16 Cheyne Walk, and he and Rossetti sat talking into the small hours. Next morning after breakfast he strolled across to Whistler’s house to have a talk with the ever-interesting painter, and this resulted in his getting home two hours later than usual. On reaching the new house he saw a waggon standing in front of it. He did not understand this, for the furniture from the previous residence had been all removed. He went up to the waggon and was surprised to find it full of furniture of a choice kind. But there was no need for him to give much time to an examination of the furniture, for he found he was familiar with every piece of it. It had come straight from Rossetti’s house, having been secretly packed and sent off by Dunn on the previous day. Some of the choicest things at “The Pines” came in this way. Not a word had Rossetti said about this generous little trick on the night before. The superb Chinese cabinet, a photograph of which appears in this book, belonged to Rossetti.”

She studied under her brother Walter Bayes, who was a well-known artist and critic at the time and was sister to the sculptor Gilbert Bayes and the painter Emmeline Bayes. Bayes exhibited widely with the Arts & Crafts Exhibition Society, and at the Royal Academy and the Baillie Gallery in London. In 1922, Bayes exhibited some of her illuminated books, as well as paintings on vellum, fans, and panels, at the Art Center in New York.

76 Having initially established himself as a portraitist, Victor Hume Moody later enrolled at the Royal College of Art in London, and it was here, under the influence of William Rothenstein, that his career as an artist profoundly changed. Rothenstein encouraged him to focus on Classical themes and compositions, and Moody remained faithful to this throughout his career, using techniques from the Italian Renaissance as his source. His strong sense of form and a more sensual approach to figurative painting earned him critical acclaim and his works were widely exhibited across the UK. His fascination with the classical world had a lasting effect on his daughter Catherine, yet while her father tended to experiment with a variety of techniques such as tempera and gesso, Catherine’s works are predominantly executed in oil and pastel. She followed in her father’s footsteps later in life too, taking over his 27-year tenure as headmaster of the Malvern School of Art in 1962. Despite the growing popularity of Abstract and Conceptual art, she remained a passionate advocate of the arts and sought to keep the tradition of figurative painting alive, leaving a lasting legacy for the School and her students.

280 ATTRIBUTED TO STANLEY WEBB DAVIES ARTS & CRAFTS BOOKCASE/BEDSIDE CABINET, CIRCA 1928 oak, with two open shelves 49.5cm wide, 72cm high, 35.5cm deep Provenance: Edwin and Maud Scott-Nicholson, Barn Close, near Carlisle and by descent to the present owner Literature: Whittaker, Esmé On the Border: Barn Close and the evolution of the Arts & Crafts interior, 19021931 The Decorative Arts Society, Journal 42, 2018, pp.90-108
£300-500 Note: Barn Close was designed by Norman Evill (1873-1958) in 1902 for Edwin and Maud ScottNicholson. Edwin Scott-Nicholson was an architect turned industrialist. Born Edwin Nicholson, he had trained in the Arts and Crafts tradition, working as an assistant to Robert Weir Schultz in London, but gave up his architectural practice when he married the daughter of Sir Benjamin Scott and joined the rapidly expanding firm, Hudson Scott and Sons Ltd. The house evolved to reflect the multi-layered taste of its owners, with their allegiance to the Design and Industries Association (D.I.A.), founded in 1915 and of which Edwin was an active supporter. He was encouraged to join by his neighbour James Morton and friend and fellow member Sir Robert Lorimer, who had been an important member from the start. Barn Close was built according to Arts and Crafts principles, using local materials and with decorative details by leading craftsmen such as William De Morgan and George Percy Bankart. Furniture in the house included work by Ambrose Heal, Gordon Russell and Ernest Gimson as well as furniture designed by Edwin himself.

oak, with sliding shelf 123cm wide, 76cm high, 69cm deep Provenance: Liberty & Co. London Note: This lot formed part of a collection of Arts & Crafts furniture made in the early 1920s for Liberty & Co’s magnificent Tudor building in Great Marlborough Street. The building was completed in 1924 and was built so that trading could continue while renovations were being completed on their adjacent premises in Regent Street. It was designed by Edwin Thomas Hall and his son Edwin Stanley Hall at the height of the 1920s fashion for the Tudor revival and constructed from the timbers of two 19th century men-of-war battleships. The new building demonstrated craft of the highest quality and attention to detail and would be a reflection of the Arts & Crafts values of “truth to material” which had played such an important part in the foundation of the company and the goods that it sold. Under the supervision of the architects, a collection of furniture was commissioned for the rooms and galleries to display the textiles, clothes and luxury goods the shop was so famous for, including the example here which retains its inset brass rule for measuring fabrics.

W. Godwin, Yale 1999, p. 200, no. 320-b, where this cabinet is illustrated. Provenance: Paul Reeves, London Note: William Watt (1834-1885) established his upholstery business in 1857; it appears in the directories as William Watt & Co., art furniture manufacturers, 21 Grafton Street, London in 1860. The firm produced and sold some of the finest furniture of the Aesthetic Movement, including cabinets designed by Edward William Godwin like the present example. The cabinet is typical of the Anglo-Japanese style associated with Godwin’s designs. He often incorporated real Japanese artefacts into his work, shopping regularly in the 1870s at Liberty’s East Indian Art Warehouse on Regent Street, which stocked such items. This is possibly where the Japanese cloisonné enamel panels on the cabinet doors came from.

361 ATTRIBUTED TO C. R. ASHBEE FOR THE GUILD OF HANDICRAFT LARGE ARTS & CRAFTS SEVEN-LIGHT ELECTROLIER, CIRCA 1910 patinated wrought iron with hammered and patinated copper shades and brass ceiling hook 100cm diameter, 175cm high Provenance: Property from an Important Private Collection Literature: Ashbee, C.R. Suggestions for Light Fittings Art Journal, 1895 V&A Accession number M.60-2000 See Guild of Handicraft Trade Catalogue, circa 1900, p.58, where a similar wrought-iron ceiling light is illustrated
£5,000-8,000
Note: The openwork construction of this impressive light, the pendant fittings and the distinctive arrangement of electric wires are characteristic of Ashbee’s work in the then relatively new medium of lighting for electricity. Ashbee, in his paper Suggestions for Light Fittings of 1895 was particularly interested to note that light from electricity fell instead of rose, as with candles and gas lighting. Many of his fittings employ the use of cowled reflectors which further direct the light downwards. He went on to state that “I prefer rest in a design and feel disturbed when three naked bronze children come rushing over the table with fortyeight candle-power hands full”. In the Art Journal article, Ashbee described a chandelier which he designed for the drawingroom of his house, the Magpie and Stump at 37 Cheyne Walk, as “a rather elaborate arrangement of a nine-pendant rose.... Here, almost the whole effect of the design is got in the manipulation of the cords, and - a little detail in light designing that is so often forgotten - their arrangement is such as to cast pleasing and broken shadows on the ceiling. The nine-pendant circular rose in question spins a sort of grand spider-web upon white plaster.”

DEARLE 1917 41cm x 30.5cm Note: John Henry Dearle is best known for his superlative work as head of design at Morris & Company. Dearle began his career with the firm as a shop assistant at 449 Oxford Street in 1878. Morris recognized Dearle’s talents as a draftsman and took him on as his tapestry apprentice, eventually allowing him to create fabric details and floral backgrounds for many of his designs. They opened a tapestry workshop at Queen Square shortly after and by 1890, at the age of 31, Dearle was appointed Head Textile Designer of the firm, responsible for handling the company’s commissions for house decorative schemes. After Morris’s death in 1896, Dearle became art director of Morris & Co. and produced many of the firms most celebrated works.

373 GEORGE LOGAN (1866-1939) FOR WALTER SCHERF & CO., NUREMBERG GLASGOW STYLE TOILET SET, CIRCA 1901 pewter with inset turquoise and garnet-coloured cabochon stones, comprising a EWER, stamped maker’s marks OSIRIS 656, 37.5cm high; a BASIN, unmarked, 43cm diameter; and a SOAP DISH & COVER, stamped maker’s mark 731, 14.2cm diameter (3) Literature: Kinchin, Juliet The Wylie & Lochhead Style, The Journal of the Decorative Arts Society 1850 - the Present, No. 9, Aspects of British Design 1870 - 1930 (1985), pp. 4-16 E. Cumming (ed.) Glasgow 1900: Art and Design, Van Gogh Museum 1993
£2,000-3,000
Other fees apply in addition to the hammer price: see the ‘Buyer’s Guide’ section on page 2
Note: A similar toilet set, designed by George Logan for Wylie & Lochhead, was exhibited by them at the Glasgow International exhibition of 1901, and at the pioneering Turin exhibition in 1902, marking the first and only time Logan’s work was exhibited alongside the designs of Charles Rennie Mackintosh. There are only two other known examples of this set, and both are currently in public collections, one belonging to The National Trust, Standen and the other to Glasgow Museums and Galleries. Wylie & Lochhead collaborated with many designers in the Glasgow Style, such as John Ednie and E. A. Taylor, however it was Logan who had the earliest and longest partnership with the company. For the 1901 exhibition, Logan designed
the library and bedroom, and the ewer and basin would have been displayed on the washstand which formed part of the interior scheme. The full extent of Wylie & Lochhead’s involvement in the production of the set is not yet known. However, the stamped marks to the ewer indicate the set was sub-contacted out to Walter Scherf’s company. Indeed, the company would have been familiar to UK firms and retailers; following the prominence of the Art Nouveau aesthetic in 1899, Liberty’s began trading a range of pewter-wares manufactured by German firms, including Scherf’s ‘Osiris’ brand. The ewer at Standen is similarly marked and decorated with turquoise cabochon stones, which are lacking from the Glasgow example. Uniquely, the present lot has also survived with its matching soap dish.

374 ERNEST ARCHIBALD TAYLOR (1874-1951) FOR WYLIE & LOCHHEAD, GLASGOW DESK, CIRCA 1905 oak, stained and leaded glass panels, with nickel drop handles backed with green leather 75cm wide, 122cm high, 50cm deep Literature: Kinchin, Juliet The Wylie & Lochhead Style, The Journal of the Decorative Arts Society 1850 - the Present, No. 9, Aspects of British Design 1870 - 1930 (1985), pp. 4-16
£8,000-12,000
Note: Initially apprenticed in the Glasgow shipbuilding industry, E. A. Taylor trained as an artist at the Glasgow School of Art, where he met Jessie M. King around 1898. Taylor joined the Glasgow cabinetmakers and retailers Wylie and Lochhead as trainee designer in 1893. His furniture designs for the firm brought him great acclaim with exhibitions at the 1901 Glasgow International Exhibition and, with his fiancée Jessie King, a series of stained-glass panels for the Turin International Exhibition of Modern Decorative Art in 1902.
Taylor went on to lecture in furniture design at Glasgow School of Art from 1903 to 1905. In 1908 he married Jessie King and moved to Manchester to manage and design for George Wragge Ltd where he produced many designs for stained glass. Between 1911 and 1914 the Taylor’s lived in Paris where they established an art school – the Shealing Atelier. This rare cabinet by Taylor combines his skills as a furniture maker and stained-glass designer and was available to buy in mahogany or, in this rarer version, in oak.

£4,000-6,000
Note: After spending part of his early career working as an art editor in London, Talwin Morris took up a post as Arts Manager for Glasgow publisher Blackie & Son in 1898, a position he held until his death in 1911. He quickly became acquainted with Charles Rennie Mackintosh and the circle of artists associated with Blackie and the Glasgow School of Art, which had a significant influence on his work. Perhaps best known for his book designs, Morris also produced pieces of furniture, textiles and metalwork, which were incorporated into many of his decorative schemes, including his own home at Dunglass Castle and the refurbishment of W.W. Blackie’s Printing Works where these panels formed part of an entrance screen. The panels demonstrate the key characteristics of the ‘Glasgow Style’, with their heavily stylised and linear plant forms and Glasgow roses.

425 ÉMILE GALLÉ (1864-1904) RARE COROLLA LAMP, 1902-1903 overlaid, acid-etched and fire-polished glass, traces of original gilding to the base, bears maker’s marks to shade and base GALLÉ shade 35cm high, base 32cm high, approx. total height 64cm Literature: Charpentier, Françoise-Thérèse Le Théâtre du peuple a eu 100 ans cet été 1995, Arts Nouveaux, Bulletin de l’Association des Amis du Musée de l’Ecole de Nancy, 1996, n° 12, pages 3 - 10 where a line drawing of this lamp is illustrated (see illustration) Note: For Émile Gallé, light was a source of justice, truth, and hope. Gallé was inspired by the symbolism of the lamp at a very young age and later he discovered that light also gives other nuances to glass. The arrival of electricity multiplied the decorative possibilities. At the Exposition Universelle of 1889 he created a large ornamental glasswork lamp in the form of a mosque, ‘an immense night-light as if veiled in black silk’. At the Salon du Champde-Mars of 1892, he exhibited a ‘violet-aubergine crystal lamp’ inscribed as Twilight with flowers mingled with amethysts and described by the French poet and essayist Sully-Prudhomme at the time; “A large piece of a sumptuous, clouded bloodred purple with ruby shards. Purpurine and livid vegetation is chiselled in relief. The edges are coloured in an opaque dark red to the opening. The frame is made of an inverted corolla in a sculptured palustrine oak.” Gallé really began his interest in electric lighting from 1899, and it is only after the Exposition Universelle of 1900 that he really began to focus his attention on it. He created numerous models in 1902 and in fact supplied examples to the house of his eldest daughter Therese on the occasion of her marriage. He exhibited several lamps at the Marsan Pavilion at the Exposition de l’Ecole de Nancy in 1903 in Paris, which are very similar to the lamp offered here. Electric lighting created by Gallé is characterised by a very pronounced naturalism: hazelwood sconces, iris night-lights, squash girandoles, umbel or flower cluster pendant lamps, columbine suspension lights etc. They are rare and easy to identify - they cannot be confused with the models created in the factory after his death. The lamp presented here is inspired by the snowdrop (Galanthus nivalis). The lampshade and the feet, blown separately, are made of double- glass, the internal layer milky white and the external layer violet-aubergine. The piece is engraved with vegetable acid. Moreover, the feet are engraved in intaglio with stylised snow crystals and a vertical signature Gallé. This lamp is very rare. There is a less rare version with a wrought iron mount that has appeared at auction several times. The interest in these lamps, which date from 1902-03, rests in the fact that they were created by Émile Gallé himself. The majority of lamps that we more commonly find on the market were actually produced by the Etablissements Gallé, twenty years after Gallé’s death in 1904. Lyon & Turnbull would like to thank François Le Tacon for his work in compiling this note.

ALESSANDRO MAZZUCOTELLI Alessandro Mazzucotelli was born into a wealthy family of blacksmiths who founded their wealth on the need for iron during the wars of the 18th and 19th centuries. When he was eighteen the company fell on hard times and he moved to the Milan to complete his apprenticeship at Defendente Oriani. In 1891, six years later, he left the company and began to focus on his own work. Most of his designs were for decorative features for buildings and his work took him from Italy to Germany and even to Thailand, where he provided ironwork for the buildings of the architect Annibale Rigotti in Bangkok.
Other fees apply in addition to the hammer price: see the ‘Buyer’s Guide’ section on page 2
His style was initially influenced by the Stile Liberty, which he explored during his travels through Europe with the Italian furniture maker Eugenio Quarti. He took inspiration from the ideas of artists such as Burne-Jones, William Morris and Walter Crane in England and Émile Gallé in France. Mazzucotelli made his name at the International Exhibitions starting in Turin in 1902, Brussels in 1910, Paris 1925 and many others. He also became a regular lecturer at the crafts school of the Società Umanitaria. Examples of his work can be seen today, particularly in Milan, and include the balustrades and handrails of the Palazzo della Borsa (1907) and the street lights in the Piazza del Duomo (1927-28).

The eye is swiftly carried across every fold and crevasse to help inject a movement and again draw our attention to the physicality of the labourer’s task at hand. L’Essoucher typifies Suzor-Côté’s move away from idealism, towards more authentic subjects which celebrate the individual and, above all, capture the essence of rural Canadian life which he loved and cherished.

Note: Phyllis Barron, who had trained at the Slade, first became interested in printing fabrics on the discovery of some printing blocks whilst on holiday in France. She researched dying at the British Museum and the V&A libraries. As a member of the London Group from 1916 until 1921 she would have been in contact with the leading artists of the day, and very quickly she came to the attention of Roger Fry who asked her to exhibit at the Omega Workshop. Dorothy Larcher meanwhile had been working in India and on her return met Barron through the embroideress Eve Simmonds. She joined Barron in 1923 and together they moved to a workshop in Hampstead. Through Detmar Blow they secured a commission to furnish the comingout dance of the Duke of Westminster, and another commission through the Duke led to a commission for cushions for Coco Chanel’s garden in Paris. They moved to the Cotswolds in 1930 where the local water was particularly suitable for madder dying. From there they secured commissions from Girton College Cambridge, the furniture maker Eric Sharpe and many others. The impossibility of obtaining good quality fabrics during the Second World War forced them to give up their business.

£500-700
Note: Aldo Tura was one of Italy’s most prominent mid-century designers. His unique designs were typified by rich materials and highly-sculptural forms that featured more unusual and exotic materials such as eggshell, goatskin and parchment. A stylistic fusion of Art Deco and Modernism, Tura’s decorative works favoured the use of coloured and lacquered parchment, richly coloured with hues of red, green and yellow. Whilst many of his contemporaries turned towards industrial machinery and methods of mass-production, throughout his career Tura remained faithful to traditional hand-craftsmanship, choosing intricate forms and labour-intensive processes that celebrated the skill of both the designer and craftsman.

573 PORTHIA PRINTS, ST. IVES GROUP OF TABLE LINENS, CIRCA 1955-60 screen-printed and painted linen, to include FOURTEEN TEST/ UNFINISHED TABLE LINENS, designed by Roger Hilton; Denis Mitchell; Michael Snow; John Forrester; Robert Adams; Roger Leigh (three hemmed and unsigned, 29.5cm x 44cm, and eleven unhemmed, approx. 32cm x 47cm) (11) Provenance: From the Estate of an important St. Ives artist
£400-600
Note: In an attempt to gain publicity for the growing St. Ives art scene in the 1950s, Denis Mitchell and his brother formed the company Porthia Prints. They encouraged local artists to submit original designs, which would then be screen-printed onto pieces of linen and sold as table mats. Terry Frost, who sometimes helped Mitchell with the printing of the textiles, described one reason for the venture as ‘just a way of making a bit of extra money’ for all the artists concerned (quoted in Geoffrey Rayner et al., Textile Design: Artists’ Textiles 1940-1976, Antique Collectors’ Club Ltd., 2014, p.92). At least 17 painters and sculptors took part in the project and put forward designs to be produced on linen fabric. 13 table mats were selected and, by 1955, they were being produced and sold exclusively through Heal & Son Limited of London. The artists featured were John Wells, Peter Lanyon, Terry Frost, Roger Hilton, Robert Adams, William Gear, Denis Mitchell, Michael Snow, Wilhelmina Barns-Graham, Patrick Heron, Barbara Hepworth, Stanley Dorfman and John Forrester. By 1957 Alexander Mackenzie, Trevor Bell and Agnes Drey had been added to the team. The results were unveiled to the public on 1st March 1955 at the exhibition Abstract Designs at Heal’s Mansard Gallery.
In the early days there was some optimism. Orders were secured in London for £150 worth of mats, and Bonnier’s of Madison Avenue proposed an exhibition. Heal’s declared themselves ‘satisfied’ with the sales of the first few weeks. But problems were already beginning to surface. Repeat orders often caused difficulties, as their production method was calibrated for the manufacture of thirteen or fourteen prints of each design, which were intended to be sold in sets or singly. However, most clients requested sets of six different mats or varieties of individual prints and Porthia struggled to keep up with demand. Denis also wrote to Stanley Dorfman saying, ‘I have found it impossible to get anyone to work, they are all damn lazy.’ Mitchell, though, was convinced that together they could have ‘built up a nice little business.’ The production issues led Heal’s to withdraw their support in 1960. Apart from an exhibition at the Redfern Gallery in 1986, showing six of the mats, and a fuller exhibition of the mats in 2006 organised by the Belgrave Gallery, St. Ives in conjunction with Margaret Howell, London, these works have been largely unknown. This collection, from an important St. Ives artist’s estate, includes a number of original designs and represents an important moment in the St. Ives artistic movement; a rare and unique collaboration of artists associated with St. Ives in the Post-War years.

64cm x 77cm Provenance: Broomhill Trinity Church, Glasgow Literature: Donnelly, Michael, Scotland’s Stained Glass, pub. The Stationery Office, 1997, page 96. Note: Gordon McWhirter Webster’s father Alfred A. Webster, was also a stained glass artist between 1884 and 1915. On his death, his widow continued to operate her husband’s firm and in 1929 it finally passed to Gordon. Mrs Webster had managed to keep the studio solvent by placing the practical management of the glass shop in the hands of the firm’s former apprentice and assistant, Douglas Hamilton who trained Gordon. Consequently, his early work is strongly influenced by his late father but by the mid-1930s he had discovered his own voice.

CONDITIONS OF SALE FOR BUYERS (UK) These Conditions of Sale and the Saleroom Notices as well as specific Catalogue terms, set out the terms on which we offer the Lots listed in this Catalogue for sale. By registering to bid and/or by bidding at auction You agree to these terms, we recommend that You read them carefully before doing so. You will find a list of definitions and a glossary at the end providing explanations for the meanings of the words and expressions used. Special terms may be used in Catalogue descriptions of particular classes of items (Books, Jewellery, Paintings, Guns, Firearms, etc.) in which case the descriptions must be interpreted in accordance with any glossary appearing in the Catalogue. These notices and terms will also form part of our terms and conditions of sales. In these Conditions the words “Us”, “Our”, “We” etc. refers to Lyon & Turnbull Ltd, the singular includes the plural and vice versa as appropriate. “You”, “Your” means the Buyer. Lyon & Turnbull Ltd. acts as agent for the Seller.
A. BEFORE THE SALE 1. DESCRIPTIONS OF LOTS 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 only accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we the Auctioneer or our employees or agents accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and no warranties, whether relating to description, condition or quality of Lots, express, implied or statutory, are given. Please note that photographs/ images provided may not be fully representative of the condition of the Lot and should not be relied upon as indicative of the overall condition of the Lot. All dimensions and weights are approximate only. 2. O UR RESPONSIBILITY FOR OUR DESCRIPTION OF LOTS We do not provide any guarantee in relation to the nature of a Lot apart from our authenticity warranty contained in paragraph E.2 and to the extent provided below. (a) Condition Reports: Condition Reports are provided on our Website
21.2
or upon request. The absence of a report does not imply that a Lot is without imperfections. Large numbers of such requests are received shortly before each sale and department specialists and administration will endeavour to respond to all requests although we offer no guarantee. Any statement in relation to the Lot is merely an expression of opinion of the Seller or us and should not be relied upon as an inducement to bid on the Lot. Lots are available for inspection prior to the sale and You are strongly advised to examine any Lot in which You are interested prior to the sale. Our Condition Reports are not prepared by professional conservators, restorers or engineers. Our Condition Report does not form any contract between us and the Buyer. The Condition Reports do not affect the Buyer’s obligations in any way. (b) Estimates: Estimates are placed on each Lot to help Buyers gauge the sums involved for the purchase of a particular Lot. Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT. Estimates are a matter of opinion and prepared in advance. Estimates may be subject to change and are for guidance only and should not be relied upon. (c) Catalogue Alterations: Lot descriptions and Estimates are prepared in advance of the sale and may be subject to change. Any alterations will be announced on the Catalogue alteration sheet, made available prior to the sale. It is the responsibility of the Buyer to make themselves aware to any alterations which may have occurred. 3. WITHDRAWAL Lyon & Turnbull may, at its discretion, withdraw any Lot at any time prior to or during the sale of the Lot. Lyon & Turnbull has no liability to You for any decision to withdraw. 4. JEWELLERY, CLOCKS & OTHER ITEMS (a) Jewellery: (i) Coloured gemstones (such as rubies, sapphires and emeralds) may have been treated to enhance their look, through methods such as heating and oiling. These methods are accepted practice but may make the gemstone less strong and/or require special care in future. (ii) All types of gemstones may have been improved by some method. You may request a gemmological report for any Lot which does not have a report if the request is made to us at least three weeks before the date of the sale and You pay the fee for the report in advance of receiving said report. (iii) We do not obtain a gemmological report for every gemstone sold in our sales. Where we do get gemmological reports from internationally accepted gemmological laboratories, such reports may be described in the Sale Particulars. Reports will describe any
improvement or treatment only if we request that they do so, but will confirm when no improvement or treatment has been made. Because of differences in approach and technology, laboratories may not agree whether a particular gemstone has been treated, the amount of treatment or whether treatment is permanent. The gemmological laboratories will only report on the improvements or treatments known to the laboratories at the date of the report. (iv) For jewellery sales, all Estimates are based on the information in any gemmological report or, if no gemmological report is available, You should assume that the gemstones may have been treated or enhanced. (b) Clocks & Watches: All Lots are sold “as seen”, and the absence of any reference to the condition of a clock or watch does not imply the Lot is in good condition and without defects, repairs or restorations. Most clocks and watches will have been repaired during their normal lifetime and may now incorporate additional/newer parts. Furthermore, we make no representation or warranty that any clock or watch is in working order. As clocks and watches often contain fine and complex mechanisms, Buyers should be aware that a general service, change of battery or further repair work, for which the Buyer is solely responsible, may be necessary. Buyers should also be aware that we cannot guarantee a watch will remain waterproof if the back is removed. Buyers should be aware that the importing watches such as Rolex, Frank Muller and Corum into the United States is highly restricted. These watches cannot be shipped to the USA and only imported personally. Clocks may be sold without pendulums, weights or keys. (c) Alcohol: may only be sold to persons aged of 18 years and over. By registering to bid, You affirm that You are at least that age. All collections must be signed for by a person over the age of 18. We Reserve the right to ask for ID from the person collecting. Buyers of alcohol must make appropriate allowances for natural variations of ullages, conditions of corks and wine. We can provide no guarantees as to how the alcohol may have been stored. There is always a risk of cork failure and allowance by the Buyer must be made. Alcohol is sold “as is” and quality of the alcohol is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no warranties are given. (d) Books-Collation: If on collation any named item in the sale Catalogue proves defective, in text or illustration the Buyer may reject the Lot provided he returns it within 21 days of the sale stating the defect in writing. This, however, shall not apply in the case of unnamed items, periodicals, autographed letters, music M.M.S., maps, drawings nor in respect of damage to bindings, stains, foxing, marginal worm holes or other defects
not affecting the completeness of the text nor in respect of Defects mentioned in the Catalogue, or at the time of sale, nor in respect of Lots sold for less than £300. (e) Electrical Goods: are sold as “works of art” only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations by a qualified electrician first. Use of such goods is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no warranties as to safety of the goods are given. (f) Upholstered items: are sold as “works of art” only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations (items manufactured prior to 1950 are exempt from any regulations). Use of such goods is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no warranties as to safety of the goods are given. We provide no guarantee as to the originality of any wood/material contained within the item.
B. REGISTERING TO BID 1.

THE PURCHASE PRICE For each Lot purchased a Buyer’s Premium of 25% of the Hammer Price of each Lot up to and including £300,000, plus 20% from £300,001 thereafter. VAT at the appropriate rate is charged on the Buyer’s Premium. No VAT is payable on the Hammer Price or premium for printed books or unframed maps bought at auction.

VALUE ADDED TAX 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. Please see D.2(e) for the conditions to be fulfilled before the VAT charged on the Hammer Price may be cancelled or refunded upon exporting from the UK. (a) Lots affixed with (†): Value Added Tax on the Hammer Price and Buyer’s Premium is imposed by law on all items affixed with a dagger (†). This imposition of VAT maybe because the Seller is registered for VAT within the UK and is not operating under a Margin Scheme. (b) Lots affixed with (‡): A reduced rate of Import Value Added Tax on the Hammer Price of 5% is payable. This indicates that a Lot has been imported from outwit the UK. (c) Lots affixed with [Ω]: Standard rate of 20% of Import Value Added Tax on the Hammer Price and premium is payable. This applies to items that have been imported from outwit the UK and do not fall within the reduced rate category. (d) Lots affixed with [Ω] or ‡ when these lots are released to buyers in the UK, the buyer will become the importer and must pay us Lyon & Turnbull Ltd. the import VAT at the rates noted above on the hammer price. The buyer should also note that the appropriate rate will be that in force on the date of our release and not that in force at the date of auction or payment. (e) Export from the UK: For lots offered
under the VAT Margin Scheme and lots with [Ω] or ‡ symbols attached; you may be eligible to have a VAT refund in certain circumstances if the lot is exported. Should you show us proof of export within three months of collection a VAT refund may be arranged. No VAT amounts will be refunded where the total refund is under £100. Bank/transfer charges relating to any refund will be borne by the buyer and will not be reimbursed. Please also note that all customs formalities of the destination country are the responsibility of the buyer. 3. A RTIST’S RESALE ROYALTY (DROIT DE SUITE) This symbol § indicates works which may be subject to the Droit de Suite or Artist’s Resale Right, which took effect in the United Kingdom on 14th February 2006. We are required to collect a royalty payment for all qualifying works of art. Under new legislation which came into effect on 1st January 2012 this applies to living artists and artists who have died in the last 70 years. This royalty will be charged to the Buyer on the Hammer Price and in addition to the Buyer’s Premium. It will not apply to works where the Hammer Price is less than €1,000 (euros). The charge for works of art sold at and above €1,000 (euros) and below €50,000 (euros) is 4%. For items selling above €50,000 (euros), charges are calculated on a sliding scale. All royalty charges are paid to the Design and Artists Copyright Society (‘DACS’) and no handling costs or additional fees are retained by the Auctioneer. Resale royalties are not subject to VAT. Please note that the royalty payment is calculated on the rate of exchange at the European Central Bank on the date of the sale. More information on Droit de Suite is available at www.dacs.org.uk.
