Born Mary Florence Elinor Rainbow in Sunderlandin the north of England in 1928, Lady Mary Stewartwould later enchant generations of readers withher unique brand of romantic and historicalsuspense novels. The daughter of a country curate,after receiving offers to study at Oxford andCambridge, Stewart read English at DurhamUniversity, and after graduating with a First, shebecame a lecturer before her passion for writingtook over. She married Frederick Stewart, a geologyprofessor who was later knighted for hiscontributions to the field, after a three monthromance, and they were married for almost 60years before his death in 2001. Famous for herMerlin Trilogy, she was also responsible for memorable novels such as NineCoaches Waiting, My Brother Michael and The Moonspinners, just a sample of themany works she produced during a prolific career.

Not one to court fame or accolade, Lady Stewart’s independent and capableheroines were a refreshing change for the genre and were often believed to bereflections of her own personality. Indeed, the novels are peppered with referencesto flowers bringing to mind her beloved garden on the shores of Loch Awe in theScottish Highlands. So personal were her novels that she even asked her publishernot to release her first book; “It felt like walking naked down the street,” she said,“so much of oneself goes into a book.”

Lady Stewart developed a passion for Asian works of art and, over her lifetimeamassed a remarkable collection. Buying from important dealers such as HughMoss and Sydney Moss, Lady Stewart collected items of various kinds that caughther attention, from intricately crafted snuff bottles to Japanese netsuke, and earlyMing wares. Two jade carvings, one a Buddhist lion from the Qianlong period, theother a Ming/Qing chimera, stand out as the highlights of this interesting and variedcollection, as well as lot 151 an impressive 19th century carved rhino horn libationcup.

The design is known inchargers of plain monochrome celadon, oneexample of which is in the Victoria & AlbertMuseum, London. The rarity of this combinationof colours in the Yongzheng era and the minorfiring flaws suggest that these chargers werepart of an experimental group. The Yongzhengemperor was known to challenge his potters toproduce increasingly advanced designs withexceptional glazes.

The Eight Immortals of the Wine Cup were a group of scholars renowned for their love ofalcoholic beverages. The extract above is from a poem dedicated to them by the acclaimedTang poet Du Fu.

Li Shizhi particularlyenjoyed entertaining guests and was said to be able to drink two litres of wine without losinghis lucidity. This cup would have been part of a set of eight, each depicting one of the Immortals. For anexample of a similar cup with another Immortal, Su Jin, see Christie’s Hong Kong 2009, lot1895.

Select items from the Leonard Gow Collection

Born in Glasgow, the son of a shipping magnate, Leonard Gow attendedGlasgow University in 1884 to spend a year studying Moral Philosophy. Hebecame senior partner in the shipping company Gow, Harrison & Co,director of the Burmah Oil Company and chairman of several othercompanies. A noted philanthropist, he founded the Leonard GowLectureship on Medical Diseases of Infancy and Childhood in 1919. Hewas given an Honorary Degree in 1934.

Gow was one of the city’s greatest art collectors, specialising in pictures,etchings and Chinese porcelain. Indeed, the Leonard Gow collection ofChinese porcelain held at one point the finest collection of Kangxiporcelain in the country. He also had later pieces, examples of which arefound in this sale (lot 354). R. L. Hobson, keeper of the Department ofOriental Antiquities and Ethnography of the British Museum, wrote of theGow collection in the Burlington Magazine, 1924:

'It is unfortunate for the devotees of Chinese porcelain in London thatthis collection is so distant. One has to go beyond Glasgow to see it, butit is safe to say that one would have to travel much further to see aprivate collection which is better in its own particular line.'

We are pleased to say that this is not the case for the selection on offer inthis sale.

Private Scottish Collection

Spanning early wares to 19th century blue and white porcelain, this collectionhas been thoughtfully assembled over a period of more than 30 years by aScottish gentleman who travelled to China in the first decade of the 20thcentury. Before long this collector became a dedicated sinophile, immersinghimself in the culture of China and becoming devoted to the Chinese peopleamong whom he worked in a remote region of Western China. Indeed, whilst inAsia he married and his children were born. Prior to his departure in the mid1940s he steadily grew a diverse collection of artworks as mementos of his timethere, often making descriptive notes, many of which are still intact with theitems.

As a marker of quality, many of the pieces collected during this period wereloaned to the British museum for historical interest, and as excellent examplesof their kind. Some items still bear museum loan labels. Since its return toScotland, the collection has remained in the same family to the present day.

The Alexander Ritchie Collection

Born in the late 19th Century, Alexander Ritchie was a carter to trade and lived inthe south side of Glasgow for most of his life. During his career he became anavid collector of period paintings, oriental ceramics and objets d'art, which weretypical of the time.

Ritchie purchased the family home in Dumbreck in the west of the city, which hasbeen kept in the family for over one hundred years. Remarkably the house hasremained untouched since the 19th Century, retaining all original fittings,features and period decor. Sadly Ritchie died in his early forties in 1926, leavingthe special pieces from his collection in trust for the family.

Alexander Ritchie’s home at Torridon Avenue, Glasgow.

A kappa is one of many Suijin (water deities) inJapanese Shinto mythology. Suijin are supernatural beings found in lakes,ponds, springs, wells, and irrigation waterways. While a kappa can be bothgood and evil, they are traditionally used to scare children of dangerslurking in water. A kappa looks like a frog or a monkey the size of a humanchild, and has a dent on its head filled with water of its native spring; if thewater is spilled, the kappa loses its magical powers. Characteristics of thekappa include politeness, loyalty, an ability of always keeping promises, anda particular love of cucumbers, which can be thrown into ponds to avoid thekappa’s wrath.

We understand that your collection is worth more than the sum of its parts.

Collections sell better as collections. That belief is at the heart of our approach to auctioneering. Over the course of our long history,

we have seen this borne out time and time again: from the contents of grand homes to corporate collections, from contemporary

art to Chinese snuff bottles; there is little we have not handled and sold well.

Each collection is unique and often has an emotional connection to the owners who create or inherit them. Our team work closely

with our clients to provide a carefully tailored approach to the sale of their collections.

Personal, passionate and professional - we deliver outstanding results.
