Note: Gerald Benney (1930-2008) was one of England’s most talented gold and silversmiths in the 20th century. He studied at the Royal College of Art where he was awarded a Prince of Wales Scholarship for a silver tea service in 1952 and began working commercially after graduating. He soon discovered, accidentally, that a hammer with a damaged head produces a very unique textural effect, known as the “Benney Bark Finish” which was widely copied for its tarnish-repelling quality and interesting contemporary look. Benney, credited with reviving the art of enamel, was also renowned for his design of silver boxes and stainless steel cutlery. He held four Royal Warrants simultaneously, was given the award Royal Designer for Industry in 1971, was Professor of Silversmithing and Jewelry at the Royal College of Art from 1974 to 1983, and was named Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 1995. $2,000-3,000 151.

210. Kew Blas Art Glass Vase Art glass Massachusetts Flared and crimped rim on tapering cylindrical form in gold iridescent zigzag pattern, ht. 7 1/2 in. Note: The Union Glass Company was established in Somerville, Massachusetts, in 1851 and subsequently closed in 1924. Along with the production of pressed and silvered glass, Union Glass was responsible for Kew Blas glassware. The Kew Blas brand was created for a line of iridescent glass produced from 1890 to 1924. The name is a scrambled spelling of the name of the factory manager at the time, W.S. Blake. Kew Blas production implemented iridescent and pulled patterns made popular at the time by other prominent brands such as Quezal and Tiffany. In fact, Thomas Johnson, an English immigrant who was previously employed by Tiffany and was a founding member of the Quezal team eventually left to join Union Glass in 1907, in order to become involved in the production of Kew Blas glassware. $600-800

Note: Most probably designed by renowned country house architect Harrie T. Lindeberg, as it came from his house, for which he designed most of the furniture. Lindeberg’s career spanned from the Progressive Era of Teddy Roosevelt to the beginning of Modernism at the end of World War II. Well-known as a gentleman architect, he was more of an innovative traditionalist compared to his contemporaries Frank Lloyd Wright, William Adams Delano, and George Howe. Between 1906-1914, Lindeberg and his partner, Lewis Albro, successfully built a new type of country home which was both pastoral and sophisticated. As the railroad moved into suburban areas, Lindeberg and Albro built many alluring country homes. By the mid-1920s, Lindeberg’s clients were found in metropolitan New York, as well as throughout the United States. In the mid-1930s, with the shift toward Modernism, Lindeberg’s sleek cellular architectural designs won little acclaim among his peers. Lindeberg lived quietly on his Long Island estate with his third wife, Angeline Krech James, during World War II. $700-900
