Very Rare Large Tunbridge Ware Tea Pot Stand, 1848-49
By Edmund Nye Tunbridge Wells
Located in Tunbridge Wells, GB
Very Rare Large Tunbridge Ware Tea Pot Stand, 1848-49
Additional Information:
Heading: Large Tunbridge Ware Tea Pot Stand with Mosaic featuring Climbing Roses
Date : 1848/49
Period : Victorian
Origin : Tunbridge Wells; labelled for Edmund Nye with a handwritten notation inside stating '10th January 1849'
Decoration : The Rosewood Frame has four chamfered edges each with a Berlin wool-work style climbing rose inside two pairs of banded keylines. The frame is filled with a 'petit point' needlework pad of stylised geometric pattern; the whole sits on four large bun feet
Condition : Good with regard to tile completeness - one patch of four contiguous missing tesserae and some singles lost; one of the corners has lost 8-10 pieces; one corner of the pad is a little threadbare and there's another square of four missing stitches; the base still has it's original lining paper affixed, but has a split across its entire width; this does not affect the stability of the piece and is, obviously, underneath so only becomes apparent should you turn the thing over,
Restoration : None
Note : This piece is something of a revelation, as the pad with its 'petit point' embroidery on penelope or needlepoint canvas is very much representative of the process by which the original Berlin...

Tunbridge Ware Handkerchief Box Edmund Nye, circa 1860
By Edmund Nye Tunbridge Wells

Additional Information:
Date: c1860
Period: Victorian
Origin: Tunbridge Wells; England
Decoration: A low, square box with a pin-hinged lid; decorated with a neo-clasical frame around a floral mosaic. To the four side faces of the box, a Berlin woolwork...
