An Arthur Wood treacle glaze horse jug. Height 24.5cm

A Gujarat silk embroidery India (Gujarat for export to Europe), circa 173083.4 cm long x 91.5 cm wideProvenance: Charles Holme, founder of The Studio magazine.  Holme travelled extensively with his wife, collecting a range of decorative arts on route.  He was a friend of Arthur Liberty, who was also a fellow traveller.Literature: John Irwin and Margaret Hall, Indian Embroideries, 1973.A panel of fine cotton twill tamboured with polychrome silks in chain stitch with a floral meander of stylised fruits, flowers and leaves on delicate trailing vines.  The fresh singing colours in shades of red, pink, rose, blue, yellow and green and the exquisitely poised embroidery, combine to impart a superlative lightness to the decoration, the motifs seemingly to float elegantly against the luminous white ground.  The fruits and flowers are embroidered with variety and fantasy in equal measure and each element is composed with a sure sense of colour: curling leaves of yellow and green with a red stem, fantastic composite fruits and flowers with multi-coloured berries and petals.  A total of nine colours are used.This textile is part of a group called “Trade Embroideries”, based on European chintz patterns and designed solely for export.  The most important group of these embroideries that can be traced back to a known chintz pattern are known as the “Ashburnham House” group, several panels of which are held by the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, these trade embroideries, also known as “Cambay embroideries” were, like chintz, all the rage in fashionable Europe where they were much coveted.  Cambay was the main centre of production, hence the term, but fine embroidery in the Cambay style was also carried out in other Gujarat centres like Patan and later Surat. Condition Report: The panel loosely stitched onto a cotton covered wood frame; with one area of brownish staining to mid-section in a line; areas where fabric is puckered; losses to silk thread; some holes around, areas where packing cream thread is pulling; some tearing to bottom left corner

'Old Cornish Crosses' Printers blocks used in the seminal work by Arthur G. Langdon. Over seventy steel and wood printer blocks, in varying sizes with the smallest measuring 7mm x 16mm and the tallest measuring 230mm x 130mm, no condition issues (although none have been rubbed by the cataloguer).First published in 1896 by Joseph Pollard of Truro, Langdon took his influence from J. T. Blight's 'Ancient Crosses and Antiquities of Cornwall', but found ' it was necessary to re-draw all the ornate examples, since, practically, none of the ornament upon them had been shown'. By using a combination of sketching and rubbing it was 'then ready to be photographed to the required scale'. These fascinating artefacts, invariably inverted, almost retain the same grandeur as their original subjects.
