Vintage English Silver Table Bell Christopher Lawrence Warbler Bird On Bullrush

About the Item

A vintage sterling solid silver and silver-gilt table bell made in London in 1982 by Christopher Nigel Lawrence. Hallmarked. The handle formed with a warbler perched on a bull rush, in song against a backdrop of reeds. There is a light textured detail to the top part of the silver bell. In very good condition, the silver bell showing a few minor surface scratches. The silver gilt has some light rubbing with use and light age related wear. About: Christopher Nigel Lawrence was born in 1936, he was apprenticed at CJ Vander's. He was greatly influenced by Reginald Hill who taught design at the Central School of Arts and Crafts, where he attended evening classes and studied on day release. A qualified craftsman in 1958, he stayed on at Vander's for a few months before moving to RE Stone to acquire experience of hollow raising. There he won the first of his three Jacques Cartier Awards for making a rose bowl designed by Alex Styles. In 1961 he moved to Gerald Benney's workshop as a craftsman, gaining a further two Cartier Awards. He eventually became Benney's workshop manager, but left in 1968 to set up on his own. 80 grams.
