SUPERB RARE VERY EARLY ARCHIBALD KNOX Des. ART NOUVEAU VASE for LIBERTY & Co. This is a stunning quite rare and very early Archibald Knox designed Art Nouveau vase for Liberty & Co that dates, I would guess, to the first year of Liberty production (very low production number – 1902 is probably a fair guestimate). It is depicted in a waisted form with relief high Art Nouveau floral motif to its rim and’whiplash’ flower heads and stems as its handles. It is stamped to the base “TUDRIC”, with “029” mark. It measures 10″ (25.5cm) H x 6″ (16.75cm) W across the handles; and is in excellent condition with no defect at all to report apart from slightr general wear consistent with its age – see photographs and details. This is a stunning piece of rare very early period Knox designed pewter from an iconic company that’s in great condition and with a realistic, yet still low start price should, I’m sure, have great appeal to all collectors.

Here for your consideration is a beautiful and extremely rare, antique, circa 1905, miniature, Bernard Moore, early flambé figure of a cute baby rabbit with raised elongated ears. Please take time to look at all 12 photos to fully appreciate this majestic early flambé rabbit. The flambé colouring in this delightful early Bernard Moore rabbit is interesting and unusual because you can see the tell-tale signs of it not being as refined as the later Royal Doulton flambé ware. It’s still got real strong vibrant running mottled colouring though. I really don’t believe my photos are doing this magnificent miniature rabbit true justice because they’re picking up white light reflections. The colouring and the way they’ve been mixed are just sublime. The base has the black script.. Bernard Moore distinct initial markings.. Condition, no cracks, damage or repairs. It does have some. Age-related base wear commensurate with 1114 years of age, but nothing unusual. Just a very nice extremely rare piece of early Bernard Moore flambé ware pottery. For the innovative production of flambé glazes and pottery with reduced lustre pigments. He joined his father’s business, Samuel Moore & Son, in 1865 and on his fathers death two years later took over the running of the firm. From 1873 to 1905 they traded as Moore Bros. Moore’s knowledge of ceramic chemistry was considerable and he was widely consulted by the ceramics industry on technical matters. Throughout the 1880s and 1890s, it is likely that he was experimenting with and perfecting the specialist and difficult glazes with which his name is now principally associated. In 1902 he was elected president of the British Ceramic Society. Moore commissioned the pots from another maker and had them decorated at Wolfe Street. His decorators included Dora Billington, Hilda Beardmore, Hilda Lindop, Reginald Tomlinson, and John Adams. Flambé glazes make use of metallic oxides, usually iron or copper, fired to temperatures up to 1500º C in a flame-burning kiln. At a critical moment, the air feeding the flame is shut off, and the flame, seeking oxygen for combustion, combines with oxygen in the glaze oxides, reducing the amount of oxygen they contain and changing their colour. The potter manages the process, which is not entirely predictable, to produce reds, purples, blues, lilacs and greens. Frederic Rhead, a contemporary writer, said of Moore in 1906, He is master of all the resources of the potter’s craft, and his work alone shows Staffordshire still capable of coping with the potters of France. It is technically triumphant, and it is quite delightful (though in a sense disappointing) to find in his show-room a case of pottery – perfect in colour and artistic feeling – which he will not sell, but prefers to retain for mere pride in its accomplishment. Moore exhibited internationally and received many awards for his ceramics. In 1910, a fire at the Brussels Exhibition destroyed much of his work. He closed the business at Wolfe Street in 1915 but continued to work as a ceramic consultant. He died in 1935. There is a portrait of him by Oswald Birley in the Potteries Museum and Art Gallery. Height: 3 inches or 7.5 cm. Length: 2.75 inches or 7 cm. Depth: 3 inches or 7.5 cm. Weight: 2.9 oz or 84.6 grams. This highly sought-after early flambé rabbit would make a superb gift and solid future investment.

Superb Rare Antique (1746) English King George II Uncirculated Milled Silver Half Crown In Investment cognition. Absolutely fantastic coin in breathtaking condition. Please browse all 12 sets of photographs attached for size, weight and condition as they are self explanatory. Half-Crown of George II, 1746. The inscription reads GEORGIUS II DEI GRATIA (George II by the Grace of God). The word LIMA under the king’s head signifies that the coin was struck from silver seized from the Spanish treasure fleet off Lima, Peru, during the War of the Austrian Succession. Obverse: LIMA below bust. Obverse Legend: GEORGIUS. II. DEI. GRATIA. Reverse: Shields in cruciform. Reverse Legend: F. D. B. ET. L. D. S. R. I. A. T. ET. E. M. B. F. ET. H. REX. This coin is in impeccable order and has been handed down several generations and has always been kept in a lovely dry place. I’m told he (and my grandfather) always used to keep selected coins in a humidity controlled box (similar to a cigar box) which was atmospherically controlled to keep them dry and they were there right through George III and Victorian periods all the way through to George V period when it was finally handed down to my father. I inherited this coin in 1983 when my father passed away and I have always kept it in a perspex capsule and in a box with silicone sachets to keep it completely dry and tarnish free. I loved the unusual original box and used it for my cigars and had it in my possession until some years ago when sadly that along with a few other small antiques was lost (or stolen) during our house move. This coin has been cherished and lovingly looked after almost 2 75 years and is free from damage and scratches. It has only ever been handled with cotton gloves! I have carefully taken it out of the perspex capsule to photograph and placed it back in it after doing so. It will be extremely rare to find a silver coin this age in such remarkable condition. It is almost as if this coin in new. I hope to find it a good home and someone who will cherish it and look after it as my family have. Unfortunately my children have no interest in coins. Hence the reluctanct sale. George II was King of Great Britain and Ireland, Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg and a prince-elector of the Holy Roman Empire from 11 June 1727 until his death in 1760. George is the most recent British monarch born outside Great Britain: he was born and brought up in northern Germany.
