About the Item

Heading : Tunbridge ware jewellery box with boy with hawk image Date : c1855 Period : Victoria Origin : Tonbridge or Tunbridge Wells, Kent Decoration : Central mosaic of a boy with a halk and spaniel. This is often described as being Prince Edward ( later Edward VII). This, however, seems a spurious claim. The image comes from a berlin woolwork pattern, examples of which we have on display at the Pantiles Arcade. There is a foliate border within dentil stringing to the cover. Side panels decorated with floral banding. Interior lined with embroided silk. Lift out tray with velvet lining, base with white paper. “Love letter” document compartment. Size : 13.8 x 19cm and 10cm height Condition : Excellent, minor wear with age externally. Interior once had dividers which are now absent. Restoration : Relined lift out tray. Weight : 1045 grams As this design is lifted from a Berlin woolwork pattern many of the manufacturers of the time made this mosaic and consequently positive attribution is challenging

By Edmund Nye Tunbridge Wells
Located in Tunbridge Wells, GB
Tunbridge Ware Edmund Nye Square Handkerchief Box, circa 1860 Although labelled, the form of this box - and especially the lining paper - are consistent with other pieces identified as coming from Edmund Nye's manufactory; the influence of Thomas Barton can be defined from the inclusion of his signature green oak tesserae in the design prior to Barton assuming control of the business in 1862 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.
