COUNTRY HOUSE COLLECTIONS AT TOWNLEY HALL 2017
As the year swings around again to this annual event thoughts turn to barrels, or more precisely the scraping of the
bottoms of same. Surely there is no more left down there to put together a credible sale of the works of art and ar-
tefacts that were in Irish country houses? However the immutability of matter and the transience of life give a fluidity
to the process. Collections form, are dispersed and houses are sold, collectors pursue objects that have lost their
context and reinstate them. The Madden armorial side table has been brought home (maybe to shoot off again?), the
long case clock from Ross House - that distillation of atmosphere of a rollicking, happy, sporting Ireland bottled by
Somerville & Ross, has been discovered. There is gleaming 18th century silver mostly Irish, that recalls companionable
dining rooms with Regency tables and brass bound buckets. The salver presented by the Corporation of Drogheda
to Montgomery Lyons. Was he a pleasant or pompous man? Likely the former as he turns up as a member of Lord
Mornington’s Glee Club and who is to say that the uisce beatha or the French wine did not make the meetings merrier
or the singing lustier. Did they play on a Southwell instrument, one of the most sophisticated in Europe?
The Preston ladies, deprived of their noble positions in Palladian Bellinter House, are available for re-housing, suitably,
in preference. Then the enigmatic architect from Rathescar, the hunting lodge of the Fosters; it became the fashion-
able Regency ‘seat’ for the speaker’s younger son but he overspent and it was taken on by a cadet branch of the Henry
family. Records were not kept and identities have been lost but these pictures and portraits were there for a reason;
probably diligent research will resolve some of this. In the interim, bloodstock and hunting had been the raison d’ être
as it had been for Eileen Mount Charles in her beautiful house designed by Francis Johnson and which reproduces in
miniature much of the architecture of Townley Hall and Slane Castle. Here are horses and dogs and the comfortable
furnishings of a hospitable house.
The landscape school of the 18th century is considered the high point of Irish Art of the period. The George Barret is a
tour de force of the genre. Why, looking out their windows and inevitably at the most wonderful views, did the gentry
have such a hankering for idealised southern landscapes? Classicism, the memories of formative trips to Italy, per-
haps not accepting the reality of their own intrusion into an older prospect? Escapism into a distant vista, as described
by Nicola Figgis in her piece on the wonderful Solomon Delane Roman landscape ‘silhouetted sensitively against the
cloud-filled sky’, could make the rain, trouble with the tenantry, demands of mortgagors, snubs from the Vice-Regal
toffs more bearable. This landscape tradition lingered on with John Henry Campbell until romanticism descended into
kitsch.
There is much of interest herein, mostly ephemeral; old warts-and-all who fastened these islands together in a sinister
embrace that has been a long time undoing, maybe Brexit will conclude the business? The treasonable vellum bestow-
ing a ‘union’ title, the faces of generations recorded in miniature of a once powerful family, the pretty Langham daugh-
ters who couldn’t find husbands (perhaps they had not wanted them)but if they had been brought to Ireland sooner,
chances are they would have (if, needless to say, that’s what they wanted) lots of mirrors to check the beauty spots,
lots of card tables to lose the demesne (it was going anyway,) books, maps and prints to study in front of the roaring
library fire. Nostalgia need not intervene here – where these items are classic in the true sense of the word, they are
timeless and as such, judiciously mixed with contemporary design, they will continue as worthy witnesses to whatever
you’re having and beyond.

Lot 92
The opening of a drawer and finding a makers stamp or looking under a table or behind a mirror and coming
across a trade label injects an extra frisson of excitement to the collector. This is not just merely because it becomes
possible to put a name to the piece in question but the added possibilities of discovering further knowledge of the
cabinet-makers style, workmanship and history. This knowledge allows us to connect directly to the world this cabi-
net-makers worked and lived in over 100/200 years ago. Cabinetmakers were well educated, managing their craft and
business though economic ups and downs as well as adapting to changes of taste and style. The Dublin street directo-
ries contain the names of many cabinet makers. These names represent the masters, who were employers, property
owners and the managers of the workshop and retail outlet. Cabinetmakers were adept at promotion, advertising
frequently and often illustrating trade cards with illustrations of the products for sale. Gillington’s, advertising the
acquisition of new designs, assured prospective clients that they ‘execute in style not inferior to any London house and
referred to the ‘superior quality of their own manufacture’. In this sale there are several pieces giving this insight and
connection to the makers involved. In 1812 Eggleso and Power, when promoting their ware-rooms referred to ‘The
numbers of artists and mechanics, as well as the large capital necessarily employed in their concern, together with the exten-
sive stock kept’. A cabinetmaker needed to be able ‘to write a good hand, understand arithmetic and have some notion
of drawing and designing’. In Dublin, many cabinetmakers attended the Dublin Society drawing schools, in particular
the school of landscape and ornament drawing.The apprenticeship system controlled entry into the trade and the
apprentice, who began to train when about fourteen years old, was bound to his master for a period of seven years.
Visitors to Ireland in the early nineteenth century continuously referred to the level of munificence in Irish houses. As
Prince von Puckler –Muskau noted ‘the stranger in Ireland soon notices the hospitality’. The dining room underwent a
change in interior style in the early nineteenth century with a taste for larger tables, ordered ensuite with sideboard,
serving table and wine cooler. Sideboards served a utilitarian purpose as well as providing an area for the display
of candelabra, china and silver which sparkled in candlelight. The cupboards were fitted to hold bottles of wine or
shelves for glasses and drawers for cutlery. The hour for dinner became later in London before it was delayed in the
country. When Maria Edgeworth visited Deepdene, the country house of the banker and furniture designer, Thomas
Hope, she was late for dinner as she had taken it for granted that ‘the Hopes dine at the same time in Town and Country’.
As the hour for serving dinner became established at a later hour it was eaten by candlelight allowing the use of dark-
er colours and the ability to create drama with the use of larger mirrors. The dining room served an important role in
a family’s social life and by the 1820s it had once again become an area for mixed-gender entertainment and family
sociability. When Margaret Harvey, visiting from Philadelphia in 1809, attended a dinner party at a relative’s house,
she was impressed and ‘astonished to see such style, such order and elegance in one family’ and at another evening
12
she described the dining room having ‘one large table in the middle and two side tables laid. The furniture in the room
and the superb manner the tables were decorated exceeds anything I ever saw’. It is easy to imagine this monumental
sideboard (Lot 220) laden with serving dishes and silver candelabra. Wine coolers were another important element of
dining room furnishings. The very fine example here is stamped Mack, Williams & Gibton, Dublin. This partnership was
one of the most successful of the second and third decades of the nineteenth century, although they were individually
established as early as 1784. The firm supplied furnishings to Dublin Castle and the Vice Regal Lodge (now Aras an Uach-
terain) as well as many country houses being built or rebuilt, including Annesbrook, County Meath, Borris House, County
Carlow and Lissadell, County Sligo. Mack, Williams & Gibton also redecorated the rococo drawing room at Newbridge
House, County Dublin supplying elaborate curtain poles, heavy crimson curtains and heavily carved mahogany and
rosewood sofas and tables. The sofas in this sale are by Williams and Gibton, dating from circa 1835, of mahogany with
organic foliate carving.
The furniture produced by Mack, Williams & Gibton for Dublin Castle in the early nineteenth century was in the Greek
revival style, who worked closely with the architect Francis Johnston. This wine cooler (Lot no. ) is a sarcophagus shape
with a domed hinged lid and bears the best elements of the firms work using the finest mahogany and wonderful carving
of vine leaves and grapes on the front and in the lion’s paw feet. Wine coolers were lead lined and filled with crushed ice
to keep wine cold and day to day were placed under the sideboard. Designs and practicalities were discussed by the cabi-
netmaker with the client and the relationship between the customer, the seller and the manufacturer was of great im-
portance. As Gillington’s explained in an advertisement ‘Having engaged a person of great experience and superior abilities
to conduct the Manufacturing Department, they will be enabled to pay such personal attention to the needs of their customers,
that the minutest as well as the most extensive Orders shall be executed with a promptitude and care that will, they trust, ensure
general approbation.’
As the century progressed taste changed and the Victorian era ushered in a more eclectic taste with a revival of many
earlier styles. A resurgence of craftsmanship accompanied the great exhibitions of the mid-nineteenth century. The
desk in this sale (Lot 94) bears the label of Arthur Jones, Stephens Green. The term Carlton House derived from a desk
commissioned the the Prince of Wales, later George IV, in the 1790s for Carlton House, his London residence. The form
is a ‘bureau a gardin’ with a superstructure of drawers. Drawings of this desk’s design were included by Hepplewhite in
his design book and also published by Thomas Sheraton in The Cabinet-Maker and Upholsterer’s Drawing Book, issued
between 1891-4, popularizing the ‘Adam’ style. Sheraton’s designs promoted the fashionable Neo-classical taste, elegant
with an emphasis on the use of inlaid and painted satinwood. When this style was revived in the late Victorian/Edward-
ian era the use of painted decoration was favoured. The design remained popular though the nineteenth century and
this piece is decorated with rather charming characterful paintings. Arthur Jones is well known fro the elaborate pieces
he supplied for the Great Exhibition in 1851 in London followed by Dublin in 1853.The firm according to Arthur Jones
was established in 1765. As with other Dublin firms their history and the furniture they produced is not identifiable until
the early 19th century, when firms began in a more regular fashion to label or stamp their production. Arthur Jones
published a catalogue of the pieces made by the firm for the exhibition, Description of a Suite of Sculptured Decorative
Furniture, Dublin 1853. The firm moved from South King Street to 134 Stephen’s Green in 1835 and Arthur took over
the firm in 1840. A chair in the National Museum of Ireland has a back formed with a round tower and a harp and the
arms terminate in wolfhound heads (illustrated in his 1853 catalogue). A carved bog yew teapoy was sold by this auction
house in 2015. The Jones firm promoted their stock claiming to always have ‘a very fine collection of Chippendale, Sheraton,
Hepplewhite, Adams, &c. Furniture’ and they were prepared to produce furniture in the aforementioned styles or in the
‘modern styles’. Of course there is a connection to the present firm as James Adam came from Scotland to train as an
apprentice with Arthur Jones in the 1860s at 135, St. Stephens Green. Those who entered the cabinetmaking trade had
to be adaptable, open to new ideas and change in taste and often willing to travel. By the late 19th century the Machine
Age had arrived and the skill of these craftsmen was no longer required. Thus pieces which survive, labelled or stamped,
bring to our attention the characteristics of Irish furniture and the skill of the craftsmen who made it and underlines how
extensive the furniture trade was in Ireland.

Set against a backdrop of the Victorian era, the Aesthetic movement was a rebellion against the uniform precision and the mechanisation
of production. Aesthetes strove for a freedom of creative expression, seeking to bring art into the most banal of objects through a focus on
quality craftsmanship. With the use of machines allowing for elaborate and over the top decoration in furniture production, those, such as
James Lamb, who worked in accordance with this movement attempted to strip the pieces back to the basics. They relied on the formation
of the piece itself to be an ornament in its own right.
Lamb of Manchester created structurally bold pieces that drew on the simplicity and elegance of Japanese design and the incorporation of
geometric motifs. James Lamb’s furniture was highly praised and won medals at the world fairs of both London (1862) and Paris (1867). On
his death, the Journal of Decorative Art and British Decorators hailed him for his innovation, claiming that ‘His name was a synonym for the
best in everything he did... His name for fifty years stood as a landmark for all that was best in both spheres of industrial art.’

Few craftsmen are lucky enough to boast George Washington and Horatio Nelson as patrons, but James McCabe was such a man. Born in
1748 into the watch-making trade in Co. Armagh, McCabe went on to become one of the finest in his field. In 1775, he moved to London
where he set up his own company on Fleet Street. Six years later, he was made an honorary Freeman of the Clockmaker’s Company. Mov-
ing his premises to Royal Exchange in 1802, McCabe continued to be acknowledged by his peers, his career reaching its pinnacle in 1811
when he was awarded the position of Senior Warden. Unfortunately, he died soon after this accomplishment, leaving his workshop and its
good name in the hands of his son.

Before recorded music, there was the music box, an instrument that has its origins in the intricate workings of clocks and pocket watches. As
timepieces advanced, clockmakers sought to bring sound from larger devices into small, handheld watches. In 1796, Antoine Favre perfected
this mechanism, using a small rotating disc to sound the time. This disc moved against pins which would reverberate to create the desired
tone. By mimicking this design and increasing the notches on the disc, a known melody could be brought to the ears of a willing listener by a
short and simple winding of a handle or knob. A long pin would create a high pitch, whilst a shorter one would allow for a lower note.
In the 1820s, the disc was switched out for the revolving cylinder which allowed for several compositions to be stored on the one piece. By
slightly altering the position of the cylinder, a different set of notes could be played. Music boxes soon became a great source of entertain-
ment within the house, reaching the peak of their popularity in the second half of the 19th century, when most large music boxes were
produced. For those who did not have the money to spare for their own music box, a single penny would suffice to enable them to play a
tune from a public box, often found nestled among the crowds at railway stations and other public places.

Raoul Hynckes (1893 - 1973) was a Dutch painter of Belgian origin. Hynckes’ style was initially impression-

keeping with this style he executed his work in an extremely fine and meticulous fashion. He is counted
among the artists loosely known as the ‘Magical Realists’.

and Jama Masjid Mosque (c.1860)
Oval, gouache on ivory, glazed panel, each 2 x 2.6cm. (6)
The tradition of miniature painting in India can be dated back
to the 9th century when they used palm leaves as their surface
material, the space itself only allowing for small images. Miniature
painting was brought into the form that we recognise now with
the arrival of the Mughal Empire in 1526. These emperors brought
with them their court artists from Persia who quickly spread their
style throughout India, the school of painting flourishing well into
the 1700s and beyond.
These particular miniatures date to the 19th century and can be
equated to those souvenirs that we more commonly see with the
European Grand Tour. At this time, India was gripped by British
power. A rebellion against the tyranny of the East India Trading
Company led to the establishment of crown rule in 1858. Where
once the navy held sway, India was now subjected to a flood of
British nobles who looked to assert themselves overseas, often
through quite questionable means. In the 1870s, the Marquess of
Salisbury, the then Secretary of State for India, is recorded as stat-
ing that ‘India is to be bled’ and, indeed, it quickly became Britain’s
greatest source of revenue. Unfortunately, whilst these foreigners
flitted from place to place, collecting their mementos and making
memories for their diaries, the Indian population fell further into
poverty and social division. These beautiful images thus only show
one side to the Britain’s 19th century ‘Jewel in the crown’ - that of
luxury, wealth and exoticism.

  • 7. COUNTRY HOUSE COLLECTIONS AT TOWNLEY HALL 2017 As the year swings around again to this annual event thoughts turn to barrels, or more precisely the scraping of the bottoms of same. Surely there is no more left down there to put together a credible sale of the works of art and ar- tefacts that were in Irish country houses? However the immutability of matter and the transience of life give a fluidity to the process. Collections form, are dispersed and houses are sold, collectors pursue objects that have lost their context and reinstate them. The Madden armorial side table has been brought home (maybe to shoot off again?), the long case clock from Ross House - that distillation of atmosphere of a rollicking, happy, sporting Ireland bottled by Somerville & Ross, has been discovered. There is gleaming 18th century silver mostly Irish, that recalls companionable dining rooms with Regency tables and brass bound buckets. The salver presented by the Corporation of Drogheda to Montgomery Lyons. Was he a pleasant or pompous man? Likely the former as he turns up as a member of Lord Mornington’s Glee Club and who is to say that the uisce beatha or the French wine did not make the meetings merrier or the singing lustier. Did they play on a Southwell instrument, one of the most sophisticated in Europe? The Preston ladies, deprived of their noble positions in Palladian Bellinter House, are available for re-housing, suitably, in preference. Then the enigmatic architect from Rathescar, the hunting lodge of the Fosters; it became the fashion- able Regency ‘seat’ for the speaker’s younger son but he overspent and it was taken on by a cadet branch of the Henry family. Records were not kept and identities have been lost but these pictures and portraits were there for a reason; probably diligent research will resolve some of this. In the interim, bloodstock and hunting had been the raison d’ être as it had been for Eileen Mount Charles in her beautiful house designed by Francis Johnson and which reproduces in miniature much of the architecture of Townley Hall and Slane Castle. Here are horses and dogs and the comfortable furnishings of a hospitable house. The landscape school of the 18th century is considered the high point of Irish Art of the period. The George Barret is a tour de force of the genre. Why, looking out their windows and inevitably at the most wonderful views, did the gentry have such a hankering for idealised southern landscapes? Classicism, the memories of formative trips to Italy, per- haps not accepting the reality of their own intrusion into an older prospect? Escapism into a distant vista, as described by Nicola Figgis in her piece on the wonderful Solomon Delane Roman landscape ‘silhouetted sensitively against the cloud-filled sky’, could make the rain, trouble with the tenantry, demands of mortgagors, snubs from the Vice-Regal toffs more bearable. This landscape tradition lingered on with John Henry Campbell until romanticism descended into kitsch. There is much of interest herein, mostly ephemeral; old warts-and-all who fastened these islands together in a sinister embrace that has been a long time undoing, maybe Brexit will conclude the business? The treasonable vellum bestow- ing a ‘union’ title, the faces of generations recorded in miniature of a once powerful family, the pretty Langham daugh- ters who couldn’t find husbands (perhaps they had not wanted them)but if they had been brought to Ireland sooner, chances are they would have (if, needless to say, that’s what they wanted) lots of mirrors to check the beauty spots, lots of card tables to lose the demesne (it was going anyway,) books, maps and prints to study in front of the roaring library fire. Nostalgia need not intervene here – where these items are classic in the true sense of the word, they are timeless and as such, judiciously mixed with contemporary design, they will continue as worthy witnesses to whatever you’re having and beyond.

  • 11. 11 Lot 92 The opening of a drawer and finding a makers stamp or looking under a table or behind a mirror and coming across a trade label injects an extra frisson of excitement to the collector. This is not just merely because it becomes possible to put a name to the piece in question but the added possibilities of discovering further knowledge of the cabinet-makers style, workmanship and history. This knowledge allows us to connect directly to the world this cabi- net-makers worked and lived in over 100/200 years ago. Cabinetmakers were well educated, managing their craft and business though economic ups and downs as well as adapting to changes of taste and style. The Dublin street directo- ries contain the names of many cabinet makers. These names represent the masters, who were employers, property owners and the managers of the workshop and retail outlet. Cabinetmakers were adept at promotion, advertising frequently and often illustrating trade cards with illustrations of the products for sale. Gillington’s, advertising the acquisition of new designs, assured prospective clients that they ‘execute in style not inferior to any London house and referred to the ‘superior quality of their own manufacture’. In this sale there are several pieces giving this insight and connection to the makers involved. In 1812 Eggleso and Power, when promoting their ware-rooms referred to ‘The numbers of artists and mechanics, as well as the large capital necessarily employed in their concern, together with the exten- sive stock kept’. A cabinetmaker needed to be able ‘to write a good hand, understand arithmetic and have some notion of drawing and designing’. In Dublin, many cabinetmakers attended the Dublin Society drawing schools, in particular the school of landscape and ornament drawing.The apprenticeship system controlled entry into the trade and the apprentice, who began to train when about fourteen years old, was bound to his master for a period of seven years. Visitors to Ireland in the early nineteenth century continuously referred to the level of munificence in Irish houses. As Prince von Puckler –Muskau noted ‘the stranger in Ireland soon notices the hospitality’. The dining room underwent a change in interior style in the early nineteenth century with a taste for larger tables, ordered ensuite with sideboard, serving table and wine cooler. Sideboards served a utilitarian purpose as well as providing an area for the display of candelabra, china and silver which sparkled in candlelight. The cupboards were fitted to hold bottles of wine or shelves for glasses and drawers for cutlery. The hour for dinner became later in London before it was delayed in the country. When Maria Edgeworth visited Deepdene, the country house of the banker and furniture designer, Thomas Hope, she was late for dinner as she had taken it for granted that ‘the Hopes dine at the same time in Town and Country’. As the hour for serving dinner became established at a later hour it was eaten by candlelight allowing the use of dark- er colours and the ability to create drama with the use of larger mirrors. The dining room served an important role in a family’s social life and by the 1820s it had once again become an area for mixed-gender entertainment and family sociability. When Margaret Harvey, visiting from Philadelphia in 1809, attended a dinner party at a relative’s house, she was impressed and ‘astonished to see such style, such order and elegance in one family’ and at another evening
  • 12. 12 she described the dining room having ‘one large table in the middle and two side tables laid. The furniture in the room and the superb manner the tables were decorated exceeds anything I ever saw’. It is easy to imagine this monumental sideboard (Lot 220) laden with serving dishes and silver candelabra. Wine coolers were another important element of dining room furnishings. The very fine example here is stamped Mack, Williams & Gibton, Dublin. This partnership was one of the most successful of the second and third decades of the nineteenth century, although they were individually established as early as 1784. The firm supplied furnishings to Dublin Castle and the Vice Regal Lodge (now Aras an Uach- terain) as well as many country houses being built or rebuilt, including Annesbrook, County Meath, Borris House, County Carlow and Lissadell, County Sligo. Mack, Williams & Gibton also redecorated the rococo drawing room at Newbridge House, County Dublin supplying elaborate curtain poles, heavy crimson curtains and heavily carved mahogany and rosewood sofas and tables. The sofas in this sale are by Williams and Gibton, dating from circa 1835, of mahogany with organic foliate carving. The furniture produced by Mack, Williams & Gibton for Dublin Castle in the early nineteenth century was in the Greek revival style, who worked closely with the architect Francis Johnston. This wine cooler (Lot no. ) is a sarcophagus shape with a domed hinged lid and bears the best elements of the firms work using the finest mahogany and wonderful carving of vine leaves and grapes on the front and in the lion’s paw feet. Wine coolers were lead lined and filled with crushed ice to keep wine cold and day to day were placed under the sideboard. Designs and practicalities were discussed by the cabi- netmaker with the client and the relationship between the customer, the seller and the manufacturer was of great im- portance. As Gillington’s explained in an advertisement ‘Having engaged a person of great experience and superior abilities to conduct the Manufacturing Department, they will be enabled to pay such personal attention to the needs of their customers, that the minutest as well as the most extensive Orders shall be executed with a promptitude and care that will, they trust, ensure general approbation.’ As the century progressed taste changed and the Victorian era ushered in a more eclectic taste with a revival of many earlier styles. A resurgence of craftsmanship accompanied the great exhibitions of the mid-nineteenth century. The desk in this sale (Lot 94) bears the label of Arthur Jones, Stephens Green. The term Carlton House derived from a desk commissioned the the Prince of Wales, later George IV, in the 1790s for Carlton House, his London residence. The form is a ‘bureau a gardin’ with a superstructure of drawers. Drawings of this desk’s design were included by Hepplewhite in his design book and also published by Thomas Sheraton in The Cabinet-Maker and Upholsterer’s Drawing Book, issued between 1891-4, popularizing the ‘Adam’ style. Sheraton’s designs promoted the fashionable Neo-classical taste, elegant with an emphasis on the use of inlaid and painted satinwood. When this style was revived in the late Victorian/Edward- ian era the use of painted decoration was favoured. The design remained popular though the nineteenth century and this piece is decorated with rather charming characterful paintings. Arthur Jones is well known fro the elaborate pieces he supplied for the Great Exhibition in 1851 in London followed by Dublin in 1853.The firm according to Arthur Jones was established in 1765. As with other Dublin firms their history and the furniture they produced is not identifiable until the early 19th century, when firms began in a more regular fashion to label or stamp their production. Arthur Jones published a catalogue of the pieces made by the firm for the exhibition, Description of a Suite of Sculptured Decorative Furniture, Dublin 1853. The firm moved from South King Street to 134 Stephen’s Green in 1835 and Arthur took over the firm in 1840. A chair in the National Museum of Ireland has a back formed with a round tower and a harp and the arms terminate in wolfhound heads (illustrated in his 1853 catalogue). A carved bog yew teapoy was sold by this auction house in 2015. The Jones firm promoted their stock claiming to always have ‘a very fine collection of Chippendale, Sheraton, Hepplewhite, Adams, &c. Furniture’ and they were prepared to produce furniture in the aforementioned styles or in the ‘modern styles’. Of course there is a connection to the present firm as James Adam came from Scotland to train as an apprentice with Arthur Jones in the 1860s at 135, St. Stephens Green. Those who entered the cabinetmaking trade had to be adaptable, open to new ideas and change in taste and often willing to travel. By the late 19th century the Machine Age had arrived and the skill of these craftsmen was no longer required. Thus pieces which survive, labelled or stamped, bring to our attention the characteristics of Irish furniture and the skill of the craftsmen who made it and underlines how extensive the furniture trade was in Ireland.

  • 15. Tuesday 10th October 253 395 PAUL SIEFFERT (1874-1957) ‘Reclining nude’ Oil on canvas, 54 x 70cm Signed lower right € 6,000 - 8,000 Set against a backdrop of the Victorian era, the Aesthetic movement was a rebellion against the uniform precision and the mechanisation of production. Aesthetes strove for a freedom of creative expression, seeking to bring art into the most banal of objects through a focus on quality craftsmanship. With the use of machines allowing for elaborate and over the top decoration in furniture production, those, such as James Lamb, who worked in accordance with this movement attempted to strip the pieces back to the basics. They relied on the formation of the piece itself to be an ornament in its own right. Lamb of Manchester created structurally bold pieces that drew on the simplicity and elegance of Japanese design and the incorporation of geometric motifs. James Lamb’s furniture was highly praised and won medals at the world fairs of both London (1862) and Paris (1867). On his death, the Journal of Decorative Art and British Decorators hailed him for his innovation, claiming that ‘His name was a synonym for the best in everything he did... His name for fifty years stood as a landmark for all that was best in both spheres of industrial art.’ 396 A BURR WALNUT, EBONY AND IVORY INLAID SIDE CABINET IN THE AESTHETIC TASTE, C.1870, attributed to Lamb of Manchester, the mirrored superstructure with a fine panel of inlaid arabesques, above an arched balus- trade cresting flanked by shelves supported on ebony and ivory turned column, the top with ivory inlaid Greek Key border above glazed doors, shelved interior, the base with corresponding balustrade, above a platform stretcher with conforming inlay, on six short turned legs. 198cm wide, 41cm deep, 172cm high € 2,000 - 3,000

Born in 1748 into the watch-making trade in Co. Armagh, McCabe went on to become one of the finest in his field. In 1775, he moved to London where he set up his own company on Fleet Street. Six years later, he was made an honorary Freeman of the Clockmaker’s Company. Mov- ing his premises to Royal Exchange in 1802, McCabe continued to be acknowledged by his peers, his career reaching its pinnacle in 1811 when he was awarded the position of Senior Warden. Unfortunately, he died soon after this accomplishment, leaving his workshop and its good name in the hands of his son. € 6,000 - 8,000 398 A FINE SATINWOOD AND MARQUETRY INLAID CYLINDER TOP BUREAU, stamped ‘Edwards and Roberts, London’, the crossbanded top with brass three quarter gallery, inlaid with a classical urn and ribbon tied bows, the roll back panel similarly decorated with musical trophies enclosing a pull out writing panel, pigeon holes, short drawers and compartments above twin frieze drawers and raised on squared tapering supports and castors. 112cm high x 106cm wide x 62cm deep € 10,000 - 15,000
  • 17. Tuesday 10th October 255 400 A SWISS ROSEWOOD, KINGWOOD AND MARQUETRY INLAID MUSIC BOX, LATE 19TH CENTURY, the rectangular case centred with a group of flowers and foliage within a quarter veneered border housing a single cylinder movement, an outset base fitted with single drawer. 76cm wide, 33cm deep, 32cm high Before recorded music, there was the music box, an instrument that has its origins in the intricate workings of clocks and pocket watches. As timepieces advanced, clockmakers sought to bring sound from larger devices into small, handheld watches. In 1796, Antoine Favre perfected this mechanism, using a small rotating disc to sound the time. This disc moved against pins which would reverberate to create the desired tone. By mimicking this design and increasing the notches on the disc, a known melody could be brought to the ears of a willing listener by a short and simple winding of a handle or knob. A long pin would create a high pitch, whilst a shorter one would allow for a lower note. In the 1820s, the disc was switched out for the revolving cylinder which allowed for several compositions to be stored on the one piece. By slightly altering the position of the cylinder, a different set of notes could be played. Music boxes soon became a great source of entertain- ment within the house, reaching the peak of their popularity in the second half of the 19th century, when most large music boxes were produced. For those who did not have the money to spare for their own music box, a single penny would suffice to enable them to play a tune from a public box, often found nestled among the crowds at railway stations and other public places. € 4,500 - 6,500 399 JONATHAN PRATT (1835-1911) A Shoemaker’s Shop, Brittany Oil on board, 47 x 31cm Signed and dated 1885 € 1,500 - 2,500

Tuesday 10th October 283 Tuesday 10th October 466 INDIAN SCHOOL (19TH CENTURY) A set of six miniatures each depicting important individual landmarks, including Sunehri Masjid (The Golden Mosque); Rumi Darwaza (The Turkish Gate); Bara Imambara (The Grand Mosque); the Tomb of Makhdum Shah Daulat; The Golden Temple Amritsar; and Jama Masjid Mosque (c.1860) Oval, gouache on ivory, glazed panel, each 2 x 2.6cm. (6) The tradition of miniature painting in India can be dated back to the 9th century when they used palm leaves as their surface material, the space itself only allowing for small images. Miniature painting was brought into the form that we recognise now with the arrival of the Mughal Empire in 1526. These emperors brought with them their court artists from Persia who quickly spread their style throughout India, the school of painting flourishing well into the 1700s and beyond. These particular miniatures date to the 19th century and can be equated to those souvenirs that we more commonly see with the European Grand Tour. At this time, India was gripped by British power. A rebellion against the tyranny of the East India Trading Company led to the establishment of crown rule in 1858. Where once the navy held sway, India was now subjected to a flood of British nobles who looked to assert themselves overseas, often through quite questionable means. In the 1870s, the Marquess of Salisbury, the then Secretary of State for India, is recorded as stat- ing that ‘India is to be bled’ and, indeed, it quickly became Britain’s greatest source of revenue.
