This rare find is only one of maybe a half dozen I have seen over the years. It is in amazing condition and fully functional. The cast brass bell is marked “10” and looks like a miniature early church bell. It retains its original cast lead & iron ringer and has a very pleasing ring. The bell is attached to the forged iron hanger with a forged eye-bolt, and the hanger extends vertically and terminates in a wonderful spiral spring which could then be hammered into place with the attached large forged spike. Presumably, the spike would be hammered into a beam or trim near the door such that the movement of the door rings the bell by way of a cord attached to the door and to the eye-bolt on the bell. Or, someone wishing to enter would pull on a cord which would go through the trim from the outside and ring the bell more like a regular entrance bell or doorbell. This piece was probably made in the Northeast between 1800 and 1850. It would be suitable for an important architectural restoration. Dimensions: Bell & Hanger: 8-1/2″ tall, Attachment Spike: 5-1/4″ long, Spring: 1-3/16 wide, Bell: 3″ tall, 3-3/16″ max. All parts are intact with no structural damage, cracks, losses or repairs. Overall original patina is undisturbed.
Rare Early Antique Heyde Lead Mr Punch On Chair. Please study the photos as they show the condition and measurement. Part of chair missing so needs to be leant. Possibly top of hat missing. But what a fantastic rare figure with great patination and presence.

Wall first period of Royal Worcester porcelain bowl / soup plate decorated in underglaze blue decoration in the Royal Lily pattern with a scalloped and pointed rim. Manufactured in England during the late 18th century, circa 1770. In 1788, King George III and Queen Charlotte visited the factory where they ordered a breakfast service in the design, which was known as Blue Lily until then. Wall period Royal Lily pattern pieces are relatively rare, but those without gilt and the red accents more so.. I wonder whether the examples without the gilt and red trim represent the earliest iterations of the pattern? In excellent condition with no chips or cracks. A true collectors piece. Diameter: 24.5 cm – Height: 4.5 cm. Please enlarge all images and inspect thoroughly, if you have any questions or require more photographs please do not hesitate to ask.
