Offered for sale are these pair of tall late 19th Century antique brass candlesticks, that are of good quality sticks with drip trays, slender stems raised on a circular stepped base.

These interesting inkwells were crafted in Britain between the Victorian period and early to mid-20th century. The works have been created from horse hooves, applied with sterling silver mounts. Each hoof has been set onto a silver horseshoe and features a silver top and lid. Two of the tops have been engraved to imitate real horse hair, while the third is more simple, with banded ornament. All three have been given covers, two of which feature commemorative inscriptions. One lid states, ‘The Grey/1907-1917’ — presumably the name of the favourite racehorse, whose hoof this is — and another reads, ‘Mavourneen/ Died June 29th / Aged 53’. ‘Mavourneen’ is an Irish Gaelic word meaning ‘my beloved’. The dedicatee’s age of 53 implies that they were a human, perhaps a jokey, or racehorse owner. The lids open up onto a silver-lined interior, intended to be used for storing ink as part of a desk arrangement. The inkwells are stamped, on their underside, with silver hallmarks and maker’s marks, ‘J.T.’ and ‘C & CS’. This set of three horse hoof inkwells...

This set of four Victorian clear crystal thorn vases, produced in Czechoslovakia circa 1890, demonstrates a highly expressive approach to late 19th-century decorative glass. Each vase is hand-blown, with a tall cylindrical body rising from an irregular, organically splayed base, and finished with applied clear glass thorns that spiral around the surface. The thorn decoration is individually applied and manipulated while the glass remained hot, resulting in a dynamic, twisting rhythm across each piece. Variations in form, thickness, and placement are evident throughout the set, underscoring the hand-crafted nature of their production and giving each vase a distinct presence. The clear crystal is of fine quality, offering strong clarity that captures and refracts light across the layered surfaces. The sculptural treatment of the exterior creates a lively interplay between transparency and texture. These vases relate stylistically to Victorian thorn glass...
