Lantern, Delftware, mid-18th Century, Dutch, Polychrome, Tryhoorn Collection

About the Item

This charming lantern decorated with typical Dutch estuary scenes is a rare survival. Although they must have been made in large quantities as evidenced in many Dutch Old Masters their medium makes them very vulnerable. The painting on this lantern is exceptionally fine and typical of the period. The use of polychrome lifts the decoration. This lantern is very atmospheric conjuring up images of cosy interiors. Retaining the original iron hanging ring. The pierced four-gabled roof is painted in blue with two repeats of estuary scenes of skiffs sailing past fortified towns. The door painted with a similar estuary scene with a large skiff in mid-view. Retaining the original iron handle and hinges. The three sides with arched windows with their original glazing and iron fixings, the frame decorated with a diaper pattern and surrounded by floral vignettes.

Plate, Delftware, 1742, Dutch, Thomas and Mary Bingham, Yarmouth, 1742, Suffolk
Located in BUNGAY, SUFFOLK
The inside centre decorated with the inscription, “Thomas and Mary Bingham In Yarmouth 1742”, inside a medallion. The rim decorated with six artemisia leaf reserves, with trellis borders interposed. The rim brown. Restoration to a rim glaze chip. Decorated in blue on a white glaze. Probably Dutch, second quarter of the 18th century. Provenance: Thomas Bingham was christened in Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, on November 14, 1697. Thomas Bingham married Mary Dent at Woodbridge in Suffolk on 24th August, 1721. Thomas and Mary Bingham had a daughter Ann christened in Yarmouth on December 17, 1727. Thomas Bingham was buried in Great Yarmouth on July 6, 1774. Thomas, a son of Thomas and Mary Bingham, was christened in St. John Maddermarket, Norwich, on December 3, 1775. In the Universal British Directory of 1793-8, Woodbridge is described as a maritime town situated near the River Deben on the turnpike road leading from London to Yarmouth. It is about 77 miles from London and as Great Yarmouth is 123 miles from London, the distance by road between the two places is about 50 miles. The River Deben, on which the town is situated, is stated to have been navigable up to the town where there were two quays. There is no-one named Bingham listed in Woodbridge in the entry for the town in the Universal British Directory. In the printed Freemen of Yarmouth, a John Bingham is the only entry under the surname. He became a freeman in 1721, having been an apprentice of John Cooper. There is no mention of the surname in the three volume Perlustration of Great Yarmouth by C J Palmer...
