Apollo, Sept, 2004 by Samson Spanier
Partridge Fine Arts, 144-46 New Bond St (+44 [0] 20 7629 0834) is exhibiting from 29 September to 13 October 200 of the 700 pieces of silver of a private collector who died recently, amassed over the past forty years, to accompany a new book on the collection by Robin Butler and Philippa Glanville.
The eclectic collection, that spans five hundred years and countries from Finland to Spain, contains an early-sixteenth century diamond-point spoon, Queen Charlotte's inkwell and a silver artist's palette presented to Sir Thomas Lawrence, President of the Royal Academy. Perhaps most striking is an English eighteenth-century salt cellar of a crab on rocks, the castings for which were probably taken from actual shells.
