Although Bennett did not sign the register, notable signatories include American whaler and inventor Dexter H. Chamberlain (1807‑1887) and, ironically, Gen.

The form here is a “ba” or “ba-bird”: a human-bird hybrid from Egyptian mythology representative of that intangible essence of humanity which survives death, akin to - but not quite the same as - our notion of a “soul” or “spirit”.

338 Monumental Pair of George IV-Style Sterling Silver Wine Coolers, first quarter 20th century, retailed by Irvine Hindle, Halifax, Yorkshire, after the 1824 originals by Paul Storr (1771‑1844), of campana form, each with a bulbous gadrooned base raised above a trumpeting foot, the flaring body with gadroon-and-dart rim and ovolo banding, with opposing high arched and scrolling reeded handles with acanthus bands and mascaron mounts, h. 13‑3/4”, dia. 131/4”, w. 16”, 305.43 total t. oz. Little is known about Irvine Hindle. Census records show him born in Halifax, Yorkshire in 1883. He does not appear to ever have registered a mark at London’s Goldsmith’s Hall in London nor any of the provincial assay offices, so he was apparently primarily a retailer, though he may have been trained as a clockmaker, given the handsome tallcase clocks which bear his name. However, some truly extraordinary reproduction silver from the first three decades of the 20th century bear his retailer’s mark. Some of these pieces bear British hallmarks - William Comyns & Sons appears to have been a favored supplier - while others, the present lot included, bear none at all and are almost certainly unique private commissions manufactured on the continent. Whatever their origin, Hindle’s pieces are uniformly of the highest quality and show a level of detail absent from most other replicas made during what is now the golden age of historical revival silver.

Jacques Guerlain (1874‑1963) began to formulate Shalimar, which was to become the parfumier’s flagship scent, in 1921. Named for the garden of Shalimar in Lahore, it was the first perfume of note to use the synthetic fixative vanillin, giving it a lighter note than traditional civet-based scents. Shalimar opens with a powerful note of bergamot before melding into a sensual mixture of lemon, flowers and sweet myrrh that remains the archetype of fragrances classified as “Oriental”. The perfume was introduced at the 1925 Paris Exposition Universelle des Arts Decoratifs (which gave Art Deco its name) in the now-iconic bottle designed by Raymond Guerlain (1900‑1969) and manufactured by Cristalleries de Baccarat (bottle design No. 597) in four sizes - of which those in the present lot are the largest.

There were at least three firms doing business as “Cumberland Furnace” at the dawn of the 19th century. One was in operation from 1794‑1854 near Carlisle, Pennsylvania; another firm named “Cumberland Furnace” is believed to have begun operating just prior to 1800 along the Delaware River near Millville, New Jersey, until it was closed in 1840. Perhaps the most prolific foundry of that name was operating in Dickson County, Tennessee, west and north of Nashville. Founded around 1793, the foundry became a large supplier of items to the U. S. government, including the cannon balls used in the “Battle of New Orleans” in 1814. That foundry remained in operation in various iterations until well into the 20th century. The present example was found at a garage sale in New Orleans. [800/1200] Illustrated

782 782 1829 Mediterranean Passport Signed by Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren, a passport for the Barbary coast for the ship Jubilee of New York and its seventeen men under the command of Moses G. Chaddock, number 100, dated September 11, 1829, signed by President Andrew Jackson (1767‑1845), Secretary of State (later Vice-President and President), Martin Van Buren (1782‑1862), and New York Customs Collector Samuel Swarthout (1783‑1856), printed on fine parchment with scalloped top edge and applied seal, 14‑3/4” x 10”, presented in a narrow molded mahogany frame glazed on both sides, 16‑1/2” x 12”. Mediterranean passports were a result of the 1795 treaty with the Dey of Algiers which provided unmolested passage of American ships along the Barbary Coast. The top edge of the passport was deliberately cut in a unique scalloped pattern across the detailed engraving, allowing it to be compared with an identical counterpart supplied to the Algerine warships, thus guaranteeing its authenticity; Barbary corsairs were instructed to let pass all vessels holding passports which matched the unique pattern. Moses Gill Chaddock, captain of the 409-tonJubilee, was born in Massachusetts in 1795, and served in the War of 1812. He is last listed in the 1860 Cohasset, Norfolk Co., Massachusetts Census as a master mariner, aged 65. [400/700]

Despite the near century difference in their manufacture, the additions here perfectly duplicate the design and decor of the earlier pieces, and are made with consummate skill. There can be no doubt that they were specifically commissioned to enhance the set, their more recent date belied only by the hallmarks and subtle early 20th-century touches, e.g., the abundant ivory fittings of the urn. Why a French firm was chosen to re-create American Expansionist-Era pieces can only be conjectured, though Tetard Freres would have been one of only a handful of firms up to the task.
