Very fine early 19th century Tunbridgeware architectural model of a chapel which also serves as a jewelry chest and dressing mirror, the diamond tiled roof in ebony and sycamore, the front with micro-mosaic rose window over Gothic inlaid door with mother of pearl and mixed woods, the door opening to reveal four kingwood drawers with bone knobs, the reverse having identical door revealing a the original beveled mercury glass dressing mirror, the whole expertly worked to an exacting standard. Tunbridge ware is a form of decoratively inlaid woodwork, typically in the form of boxes, that is characteristic of Tonbridge and the spa town of Royal Tunbridge Wells in Kent in the 18th and 19th centuries. The decoration typically consists of a mosaic of many very small pieces of different colored woods that form a pictorial vignette. Shaped rods and slivers of wood were first carefully glued together, then cut into many thin slices of identical pictorial veneer with a fine saw. Elaborately striped and feathered bandings for framing were pre-formed in a similar fashion. There is a collection of Tunbridge ware in the Tunbridge Wells Museum and Art Gallery in Tunbridge Wells.[1 While Tunbridge ware boxes...

For its latest creation, a jewellery box, the Linley designers have taken inspiration from the magnificent stripe pattern adorning the interior of the Duomo of Siena. While the Duomo interior walls were created in alternating white and black marble (which is, in fact, dark green), the exterior pattern of the Siena jewellery box is made up of specially dyed grey anegre and bleached sycamore veneers. The lid of Jewellery box features a slip-matched pattern using sixty individual pieces of bleached sycamore veneer and is crowned by an oval shaped sterling silver plaque, perfect for engraving with a name, date, initials or special message. Believed to be completed between 1215-1263, the Duomo of Siena also contains an exceptional decorative floor. Made up of panels designed by important sculptors and painters of the time, the scenes were created using a technique of inlaying colored marble into slabs of white marble in a manner similar to marquetry, the incredibly intricate skill that Linley is renowned for. Constructed in sycamore, the jewellery box opens to reveal glass mirrors, angled so that jewellery can be admired from different views. The interior is a myriad of compartments and drawers that swing and pullout, each one lined in pale grey faux suede and individually designed for storing different jewellery, watches and trinkets with ring inserts, padded watch...
