Engraved Decanter in the Form of a Bottle TG Hawkes & Co., circa 1930
By T. G. Hawkes & Co.
Located in Melbourne, Victoria
A decanter in the form of a bottle, with sterling silver top and entensive engraved decoration. The lock is a convincing sham, which looks secure but opens easily without a key.
The top is stamped Sterling, and the base has an etched mark for Hawkes.
T.G. Hawkes & Co. was a prominent American glass manufacturer that operated from the late 19th century to the early 20th century. The company was founded by Thomas G. Hawkes in 1880 in Corning, New York, which was already a center of glass manufacturing.
T.G. Hawkes & Co. specialized in the production of high-quality cut glass, also known as crystal glass, which was a popular luxury item during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The company quickly established a reputation for producing some of the finest cut glass in the world, and its products were highly sought after by wealthy Americans and Europeans.
Hawkes' cut glass was known for its intricate designs, precise cuts, and brilliant shine. The company's designs ranged from simple geometric patterns to more intricate floral and scroll designs, and many pieces were also engraved with intricate scenes and motifs.
T.G. Hawkes & Co. was a major supplier of glassware to luxury retailers, such as Tiffany & Co. and Cartier, and its products were used in many prestigious events, such as White House state dinners...

Pair of Pattern 1166 Vases, Spode, C1820
By Spode
Located in Melbourne, Victoria
Pair of vases in the ancient Greek shape known as Kanteros, decorated with pattern 1166. A stunning pair, in excellent condition. The flower painting on these vases is exceptional, even for the Regency period, when English flower painting was at its height.
The Kantharos shape is a type of ancient Greek vase that was used for drinking wine. It was named after the word "kantharos," which was used to describe a type of two-handled cup in ancient Greece. The Kantharos shape is characterized by a large bowl, small base, and two wide handles that rise up from the sides of the bowl and curve upwards towards the rim. The shape was used primarily for drinking wine at symposia, or social gatherings, and was also used in religious ceremonies.
Kantharos vases were produced in a variety of materials, including clay, bronze, and silver, and were decorated with a range of motifs, including mythical scenes, animal figures, and floral designs. They were often used to serve wine, but were also used to hold other liquids such as oil or water.
The Kantharos shape was widely used throughout the ancient world, and examples have been found in archaeological sites from Greece to Italy to Asia Minor. It is considered a classic example of ancient Greek pottery and is an important part of the history of Greek...

'Beach Camp' Modernist Oil Painting Signed Anne Montgomery, 1984
By Anne Montgomery
Located in Melbourne, AU
Anne Montgomery has been considered for many years one of the women artists Australia forgot. Not any more. Along with the likes of Clarice Beckett and Lina Bryans, her work is now recognised as an important part of Australian modernism.
The breadth and quality of Montgomery's work over a long lifetime has always been appreciated by other artists. As Australian women artists in the mid Century period were relegated to the fringes of the establishment, they freely explored their own vision and developed their own style. Montgomery's work richly deserves the attention it's now receiving.
This work shows Montgomery's unique perception and expression of colour in the Australian landscape. Her use of oil on board gives her work a robust structure but the inclusion of ink sketching in the work gives it a delicate texture. Her foliage and grasses tickle, her fabric floats, trees dance - her landscapes are in constant movement.
