Y &nbspA RARE PAIR OF SHELLWORK FLORAL DISPLAYS POSSIBLY BY LADY SUSAN BIRCH (1881-1965) OR THE HON. CLAUDE YORKE (1872-1940) Each of shaped square form with chamfered tops, painted faux verde antico glazed surrounds enclosing a display of mother-of-pearl and shell and painted metal flowers on mirrored bases, one titled 'From Fancie's Garden' the other 'From Ocean Stranded Petals' 73cm high, 35.5cm wide and deep at the feet Provenance: Probably created by Lady Susan Birch and thence by family descent Illustrated: The Connoisseur, May 1965, p.4These floral shellwork displays are likely to have been created by Lady Susan Birch, only daughter of John Manners Yorke, 7th Earl of Hardwicke and sister of the Hon. Claude John (John) Yorke. In the 1920s, having travelled to the United States with her brother, Lady Susan was credited with the renewed interest in shellwork, which had been popular in the 18th century in England and France (Ripon Observer, 28 February 1929, p. 3). She advocated that 'women could adopt it as a lucrative way of making a living, more particularly in what is known as shell architecture', and went on to describe a shop in Brussels where the 'whole shop was devoted to the work, and the variety and colouring of the shell exhibits were amazing'. Earlier, in June 1922, a visit to an exhibition of Lady Susan's shellwork was described as 'an eye-opener on the possibilities of shells' (Truth, 28 June 1922, p. 54). The author went on to describe the 'gifted' Lady Susan's decoration for tables: 'a magnolia tree in an Eastern pot, some narcissi in soapstone jars, gold leaved apple-blossoms on natural branches, and varied schemes to show a corolla of tiny shells of gleaming like jewels in the centre of single-shelled petals shining with alluring complexion, and glowing with a hundred tints'.  Condition Report: With wear, marks, knocks and scratches as per age, handling, use, and cleaning. Both are sealed and internal glass and mirror bases have become quite dirty with signs of old mould. Some loose elements of bouquets which are now hanging down and with some loose sections of shell and branches visible on mirrored bases. Externally with some surface dirt and rubbing to raised edges. One finial slightly loose. Some drying out and hairline cracks to composition elements on feet and one case with small areas of loss to two feet.

CHARLES-AUGUSTE FRAIKIN (BELGIAN 1817-1893) A RARE MARBLE FIGURAL GROUP 'THE CRADLE OF LOVE' MID 19TH CENTURY Carrara marble, sleeping child on shell set on a triform base with carved dolphins, signed, on a painted simulated marble octagonal pedestal Group 65cm high, 79cm wide, 130.5cm high overall  Provenance: Possibly the 4th Earl of Craven and thence by descent Literature: Edward MacDermott, "Routledge's Guide to the Crystal Palace and Park at Sydenham", G. Routledge & Company, 1854. PP.146. Musee Fraikin De Herenthals : Offert Par L'artiste A Sa Ville Natale L'an 1891 : Catalogue De La Galerie 1891, publ. L. Bongaerts-Verbeeck Herenthals. The Belgian sculptor Charles-Auguste Fraikin (1817-1893) was born in Herentals in Belgium. After a difficult childhood and an early career training to be an apothecary. he re-devoted his life instead to the study and production of sculture under Pierre Puyenbroeck. Just 6 months after enrolling in the Académie royale des beaux-arts Brussels he won the internal competition for sculpture and more public success followed swiftly. In 1845 at the Salon de Bruxelles the Queen of the Belgians recommended his work "L'Amour captif" to King Leopold I and Royal commissions followed. The museum at Herentals devoted to his life and work was established by a bequest in his will- leaving the entirety of the plaster casts from his studio. In the gallery guide from 1891 the museum discusses this particular work: "No 11 Amour au Berceau". It recounts how the work came into being after a public lottery in 1850- won by Dr Lombard from Liege. Versions of it were also executed in various materials including, notably, for M. le Baron de Rotschild a Paris. One of Fraikin's first public exhibitions of this composition was at the Great Exhibition of 1851 where his work was highlighted in Routledge's Guide in the description of the "French and Italian Modern Sculpture Court". His work was noted as being "graceful and delicate in the extreme" and being especially worthy of attention from visitors: "M. Fraikin of Brussels, a sculptor who possesses as great a reputation among his fellow artists in Belgium as with amateurs and the public in general... "L'amour au Berceau" or "Cupid in his cradle" "Psyche" and a "Roman peasant woman" are works also by M Fraikin which will appeal to the sympathies of visitors of all age". Exhibiting another version of this work at the 1855 l'Exposition Universelle in Paris he was rewarded with the patronage of Empress Eugenie, who had the group placed into her bedroom at the Tuileries Palace. Sadly, that example was lost in the Tuileries fire in 1871. Condition Report: With wear, marks, knocks and scratches as per age, handling, use, and cleaning. With old damages and losses to all fingers and some toes- some of which have had repairs but some of which are now missing (just one loose finger with auctioneer). Natural flaws and inclusions- notably areas of darker veining to body and shell- flaw above signature which does not seem to carry through to underside of shell. Some infill to natural small spots which look to be from manufacture. Paint and contact marks around rear right hand. Dirt to recesses.

After Repton, Jackie trained at the Royal Military College, Sandhurst 1911-1912 and played regularly for the Hockey and Soccer XIs and received his "Blue" for revolver shooting. He also won the Military History Prize and was commissioned on 24th August 1912 and sailed for India on the troopship Plassy in September, where he was attached to 1st Yorkshire at Sialkot. He transferred to 15th Ludhiana Sikhs on 5th November 1913 at Loralai, Baluchistan. When war broke out, the Battalion marched to Karachi, before sailing for Europe, arriving in Marseilles in September 1914. Jackie was promoted to Lieutenant on 24th November 1914 and the Battalion trained and acclimatised at Orleans before moving into the line at Richebourg, Festubert and Givenchy areas. Jackie was extremely lucky when an exploding minenwerfer buried him alive. He was dug out but was left with a hearing problem which affected him for the rest of his life. He also had a cigarette shot from out of his mouth at Windy Corner and a piece of shrapnel cut his neck on another occasion. Early in 1915 he was appointed Aide de Camp to Brigadier General Strickland, commanding the Jullundur Brigade, but returned to his Battalion when the Adjutant became a casualty. He was appointed Adjutant before the Battle of Neuve Chapelle in March 1915. In actions near Richebourg L'Avoue, Frnace, on May 18th, 1915, Lieutenant Smyth with a bombing party of 10 men, voluntarily undertook the duty, to supply ammunitions to comrades within 20 yards of the enemy's position. After the attempts of two other parties had failed, with eight having been killed or wounded, he succeeded in taking the munitions to the desired position with the aid of his last two men. Jackie was gazetted for the VC on 29th June 1915, and received the medal on 12th July 1915 at Buckingham Palace from King George V. He was also awarded the Russian Order of St George, 4th Class on 25th August 1915. The Battalion then moved to Egypt, landing at Ismailia in August 1915. In November it moved to Mersah Matruh by armed trawlers to take part in the Senussi Campaign in the Western Desert. The Battalion returned to India in February 1916 for duty on the North West Frontier. He was promoted to Captain and took part in the Mohmand Blockade on the North West Frontier from October to December 1916. He passed out at the top of the Staff School at Saugor in January 1918 and was appointed acting major on 20th June 1918 and Brigade Major of the Bombay-Deolali Brigade. Later he was Brigade Major of 43rd Indian Brigade at Lahore. On 21st October 1919 a convoy was attacked by a party of Mahsuds. He set off with 300 men of 9th Jats in Ford vans, supported by two armoured cars. They arrived within two hours. While the infantry got behind the Mahsuds, Jackie drove the armoured cars straight at them. The Mahsuds retreated. He was awarded the Military Cross for this action (LG 27th September 1920). It was also this action which saw the award of a posthumous VC to Henry Andrews. Details enclosed. Good condition Est.
