Silver from Mentmore (lots 2022-2025)

Mentmore Towers, usually referred to simply by the mononym ‘Mentmore’, is the 19th-century country house built for the Rothschild family in Buckinghamshire in the 1850s to the designs of Sir Joseph Paxton. The house was designed in the so-called ‘Jacobethan’ style for Baron Mayer de Rothschild, from the banking family and a celebrated collector, as a country home but probably as importantly as a gallery for his famous collection of fine and decorative art.

The Baron and Baroness de Rothschild spent over twenty years living in the house surrounded by their celebrated collections until their deaths in 1874 and 1877 respectively. The couple had only one child and so Hannah de Rothschild was to become the richest woman in Britain as her father’s sole heiress, inheriting the house, estates and art collection. Hannah went on to marry, in 1878, Archibald Philip Primrose, 5th Earl of Rosebery and 1st Earl of Midlothian, becoming Hannah Primrose, Countess of Rosebery.

The estates thus passed into the family of the Earls of Rosebery, first to Hannah’s son Albert Edward, 6th Earl and then to her grandson Neil, 7th Earl. The family seat of the Earls of Rosebery was traditionally Dalmeny House in West Lothian and so by the 1940s the Mentmore estates had become somewhat redundant and costly to maintain. For this reason much of the land was sold in 1944, though with the house and village retained by the family. This state of affairs was to continue until 1974 when, on the death of the 6th Earl, the executors began to explore the possibilities for the sale of the house and contents, with the hope it could be sold to the nation to be preserved as a heritage property. It was initially the intention that the contents could be negotiated for sale to the nation in lieu of inheritance tax but this was refused by the then Labour Prime Minister James Callaghan. Later the possible sale of the house and contents to the nation for £2 million was suggested but this too was refused and so, after several years of discussion, Sotheby’s were instructed by the executors to present the collection for auction in May 1977 in what was to be described as ‘The Sale of the Century’. The sale ran for ten days selling everything from the paintings on the walls, the furniture in the grand salons, the silver in the strongroom to the kitchen wares and furniture from the servant’s quarters.

A Pair of Victorian Silver Ceremonial Trumpets, by Henry Potter, London, 1885 each of typical form, the tapering end chased with military trophies among foliage and flowers and on a matted ground, with vacant cartouche, the top tube with central rose, thistle and shamrock chased knop, the tubing with spiral-fluting and foliage stamped sections, each engraved with an inscription below a coat-of-arms, each with ceremonial tasseled cord, in fitted oak case with applied plaque engraved with a name the trumpets each 70.5cm high, the case 76cm wide, total weight 63oz 17dwt, 1,675gr (2)

The inscription on each trumpet reads ‘Henry P Banks High Sheriff of Cumberland 1868 [sic] A Birthday Gift from his brother Edwin’. The coat-ofarms are those of Banks, as borne by Henry Pearson Banks (1844-1891). The inscription on the cover reads ‘Henry P Banks Highmoor’ Henry Potter is first recorded in 1841 at 27 Marsham Street, in Westminster, and by 1852 was known as a military musical instrument maker, producing a wide variety of instruments in silver, brass and copper. Silver examples are obviously rarer than examples in brass and copper but a silver bugle engraved with the badge of the Royal Fusiliers has appeared recently on the market (Bonhams, 14 February 2024, lot 755). In line with the military tradition of Henry Potter the present trumpets are very much in the form typical of examples made through the 19th century by various makers and mostly intended for military or ceremonial purposes. Perhaps their form and decoration can be traced back to the famous instrument maker William Bull who produced at least two examples in silver, one now at the Ashmolean in Oxford (museum number WA1947.191.154) and the other owned by the Warwickshire County Museum Service. Each of these examples show very similar decoration with foliage and flower garland, spiral-fluting and with a central foliage knop. The same decoration is a feature of known 19th century examples such as one of 1813 now in the collection of the Rijksmuseum (object number NG-NM-561). This example is attributed to William Sandbach, a trumpet maker, and William Troby, a London silversmith. It was presented by William I of the Netherlands to his Life Guards.

Two other examples worth nothing are both of a more similar vintage to the present pair of natural trumpets. One was made by Henry Keat and Sons which is now in the collection of the Royal Armouries (object number XVIII.90) and another in the collection of the Museum of the King’s Royal Hussars.

This present pair of examples, though of the typical military form, down to the chased garland of military trophies, was originally presented as a birthday gift to Henry Pearson Banks (1844-1891) by his brother Edwin Hodge Banks (1847-1917), as recorded on the engraved inscription which appears below the engraved representation of the Banks family coat-of-arms. The gift of the trumpets was also meant to commemorate the

elder brother’s year as High Sheriff of Cumberland, though the engraver transposed the date from 1886 to 1868. The event of Banks being invested as High Sheriff is recorded by the London Gazette of 9 March 1886 noting the presence of The Queen’s most Excellent Majesty in Council as well as all the Sheriffs appointed for the year 1886.

Henry Pearson Banks was trained to be a lawyer, and though he kept chambers at the Temple in London, there is little evidence of his practicing law. His being appointed to various posts, such as High Sheriff of Cumberland suggests he maintained a strong connection to Cumberland, the county of his birth. He came from a family with much success through the 19th century, starting at the beginning of the century when the family were weavers in Keswick. Other members of the extended family were to establish businesses such as a pencil manufacturers, exporters and linen manufacturers. By the end of the century Edwin Hodge Banks had been made bankrupt and the family estate, Highmoor House in Wigton, had been sold.

The original house at Highmoor was built for Joseph Hodge, who was to marry into the Banks family. As he had no children the house was inherited by William Banks. The house was originally a five-bay stuccoed pedimented villa on which construction commenced around 1817. The Banks family variously extended and improved the house through the century, first in around 1870, when it was extended to the west and had a belvedere added. Later, in 1885, the belvedere was extended in height and turned into a bell tower, complete with carillion.

This very rare exotic ‘Racing’ dial wristwatch, reference 145.012, was produced for only two years between 1967 and 1968. There were two generations of the Racing dial Speedmaster with three executions in total. All the watches had characterised features displaying the black dials, bicolour markers and specific coloured hands. The first generation came in two executions, the first being the “Pre-Professional” dial with applied Omega logo and Swiss Made and the second execution such as the present lot came with the Professional and Omega logo painted in white and the dial marked T Swiss Made T below 6. The first generation watches were powered by the highly rated manual-wound movement calibre 321. To our understanding, there have been only 12 first generation examples known to the market with around 6 being Omega Professional second execution variant, as the present lot.

(a) authorise Tennants, if they so wish, to charge the credit/bank card given in part of full payment, including all fees, for items successfully purchased in the auction via www.the-saleroom.com; and

(b) confirm that you are authorised to provide these credit/bank details to Tennants through www.the-saleroom.com and agree that Tennants are entitled to permit the shipping of the goods to the card holder and card holder address provided in fulfilment of the sale..

We do not accept any liability for any losses, however arising, as a result of a prospective buyer’s use of www.thesaleroom.com. Use of www.the-saleroom.com is subject to separate terms and conditions which do not form part of these conditions.

Telephone Bidding

Requests for telephone bidding must be registered at least one hour prior to the close of the View Day. We will not accept requests on the Day of Sale. Telephone Lines are booked on a first-come, first-served basis and are subject to a minimum lot value of £500 for Fine Art Sales and £200 for all other sales.

Absentee Bidding

Whilst reasonable endeavours will be made to execute absentee bidding up to the Day of Sale, Tennants will not be liable for any default or neglect in connection with this service. All such arrangements therefore are made entirely at the Prospective Buyer’s risk.

VAT

Value added tax or any equivalent tax chargeable in the UK or elsewhere.

AML Due Diligence

We conduct appropriate Due Diligence checks to comply with current Anti Money Laundering regulations for any buyer exceeding the threshold of £6,000. We reserve the right to withhold the purchased lots until such checks have been completed.

Agency

We act as agents for the Seller, whose details remain confidential. If you buy at auction your contract is with the Seller, not us.

Jewellery

Coloured Stones. It should be noted that gemstones are often treated to improve their appearance. Heating, for instance, can intensify the colour or transparency of sapphires and rubies, whilst oiling can improve the clarity of emeralds. The international jewellery trade generally accepts these methods. Once heated, the colour enhancement is permanent, though there may be some effect on the durability of the gemstone in question. Once a gemstone has been oiled, the process may need to be repeated in the future to maintain the clarity. Certificates. Some lots are accompanied by gemmological certificates which give an opinion on some or all of the gemstones included in that particular piece. These certificates may have been obtained by Tennants or supplied by vendors. It is important to note that the content of these certificates is not guaranteed by Tennants and we cannot be held responsible for any disagreement over the content of certificates after the sale or for a retrospective change in opinion by the providers of any of the certificates.

Watches

All Lots are sold as seen, and the absence of any reference to the condition of a watch does not imply the lot is in good condition and without defects, repairs or restorations. Most watches have been repaired in the course of their normal lifetime and may now incorporate parts not original to them. We do not undertake any inspection of any watches prior to any Sale. We make no representation or warranty that any watch is in working order. As watches often contain fine and complex mechanisms, Prospective Buyers should be aware that a general service, change of battery or further repair work, for which they are solely responsible, may be necessary.

CITES Regulations/Ivory Act 2018

CITES-restricted items and Ivory Exempt items will be accompanied by a current CITES Article 10 licence/Ivory Exemption Declaration where applicable and the licence/exemption declaration number will be displayed within the original catalogue description (required by UK law). Both CITES Article 10 licences and Ivory Exemption Declarations are non-transferable and buyers must apply for a new Article 10 licence/Ivory Exemption Declaration in their name if they wish to sell to a third party.

It is the sole responsibility of the buyer and/or contracted shipping agent to have in place the correct CITES re-export and import licences into the buyer’s chosen country before shipping can be undertaken.

CITES regulations are given on www.ukcites.gov.uk or may be obtained from:

The Animal and Plant Health Agency Centre for International Trade Horizon House Deanery Road Bristol BL1 5AH wildlife.licensing@apha.gsi.gov.uk 0117 372 3700

Those species that are covered by the US Endangered Species Act (USESA) or The Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA): potential US bidders should check with USF&W (US Fish and Wildlife Services) for trade/possession restrictions in the US prior to bidding.

Method of Payment

Payment is accepted online via our website.

Card payments where the card holder is not present will only be accepted for transactions up to £500.

All accounts must be settled within 14 days of the sale. Accounts not paid within 14 days will automatically be subject to an interest charge of 5% above base rate from the day of sale.
