Leslie Rankine Taylor

Leslie Rankine Taylor (nee Crawford), who died in January 2014in her adopted town of Cirencester, Gloucestershire, was a Scot,through and through. Born in Edinburgh in October 1920, shewas the daughter of John Balfour Crawford, an officer of theBank of Scotland who went on to become the well-respectedTreasurer of the Bank for a decade from 1942. She, as well asher sister and two brothers, attended the George Watson’sColleges in Edinburgh.

Known as ‘Leli’ by her friends and family, she married in 1946 ayoung Scottish Banker, Alistair Macdougall from Skye. They hadone son, John Crawford, who survives her. This marriage did notlast however and after they separated in 1952, Leslie lived adifficult life alone, raising her son whilst honing her love ofantiques by working for Margery Bromfield in her wonderful‘Castle Antiques’ shop on the Lawnmarket. She also started tobuy pieces for herself whenever she had funds and developed apassion at this time which was to sustain her thereafter in herfull and adventurous life.

In 1960 she married again, to Dr Andrew Rankine Taylor, andthey lived for the next eight years in an old Manse in Polmont,

Stirlingshire, until her husband’s poor health indicated that amove south was advisable. They decided to move to Cirencester,where they lived on the favoured Cecily Hill, and opened anantiques shop in Dollar Street; a few minutes’ walk from themediaeval parish church and town market-place. This was at ahigh point for the antiques business, with many British andoverseas buyers coming to the shop during this golden period ofantiques collecting. In 1971 they moved to larger premises, alsoin Dollar Street, with elegant showrooms, a workshop, and threeflats above. In 1972, her husband Andrew died, leaving Leslie torun the shop alone. This she did in her own striking way, creatinga truly magical antiques shop in which she presented an eclecticrange of furniture and accompanying exquisite items, withelegance and invention.

Her overwhelming desire was to assemble an ever-changingkaleidoscope of antiques which reflected her own astonishingrange of interests. It might, at any one moment, include statelyupholstered armchairs and settees, juxtaposed with oakdressers, chests, refectory and gate-leg tables - and always oakwainscot chairs, joint stools and upholstered stools. All of herfurniture had a deeply cared-for appearance and many were rareand unusual items; such as a secretaire made from stained

burr-mulberry to imitate tortoiseshell, or a court cupboard ofScottish origin, embellished with stylised thistles, dating fromthe early 17th century. Her style was that of a gifted interiordecorator and no horizontal surface was left without tasteful andcompelling pieces of pottery, porcelain, brass and copperware,pewter, carved figures and delft tiles. On the walls, she displayedpaintings, mirrors, framed needlework, caryatids and terms; allwith meticulously researched and interesting labelleddescriptions.

She cared for fashionable mahogany furniture too, and alwayskept bookcases, bureaux and tables. These, too, were always‘dressed’ with items compatible with their original use; a pewterink pot with a quill pen and a pile of leather-bound books; or withChinese import plates filling glazed cupboards. No surface orspace was left unadorned. All of which meant that entering thespace of her shop was to forget about time, and to enter, withher, into conversations about all manner of things which mightotherwise have passed one’s notice. She despised, above all,indifference to her carefully arranged cornucopia of historic andattractive objects. She relished combative conversation and hershop was, for her, the centre of her life into which friends, newand old, could enter and if they passed the test of good mannersand a sense of fascination, they would become welcome guestsand enjoy coffee, or a glass of something stronger (sloe gin beinga favourite!), in her inner sanctum. Others she left in no doubtthat she did not suffer fools gladly!

Leslie bought items from many sources, much of it brought toher, but her love of Scottish items never left her and sheregularly travelled to Edinburgh to see her old dealer contacts:Gordon Small, Kenneth Jackson, Harry Parry, Janet Lumsdenand others, from whom she brought treasures back toCirencester. Always there was a strong thematic element of‘Scottishness’ in her shop; for instance, she would dress theshop windows for Rabbie Burns’ birthday with Scottish tartansand appropriate memorabilia. This closely followed on from heroutstanding and fascinating Christmas scenes of the Nativity,which brought light and festive joy to the ancient Dollar Street.Other celebratory window dressings appeared for AmericanIndependence Day in July, and the ‘Glorious 12th’ in August.

In 2004 she decided to move back to Cecily Hill, to The OldDolphin, selling a large portion of her stock by auction, andprepared to retire. However she took a long time to finally dothis. In truth, she loved antiques and the contact with those whovisited her shop too much. She continued to trade for anotherfour years until her shop was eventually sold, and she thenreconciled herself to filling her new home with her fascinating

items, including her silver collection. The Old Dolphin becameanother warm and genteel place which reflected her tastes andprovided a place to invite her many friends and family.

Leslie was truly an antiques dealer of a generation whichrelished and found fascination everywhere. Her passing, and thatof her shop, marks a turning point in the history of antiquedealing in Cirencester, and more generally in the UK. Her likewill not come again, in a time when antique dealing has becomemore specialised and internet-based. Many, including myself,will miss the frequent discussions on furniture and the recordingof many items of relevance to my own research; for example, herlowland Scottish chairs bought in the Edinburgh region, werepublished in my Scottish Vernacular Furniture (Bernard D.Cotton, 2008, pp 158-159); as was the rare Orkney wooden chairdated 1703 (p 245). In this way, these and other items she ownedhave also achieved new and more widely available recognition.She will be remembered with affection, and not a little awe, bythe many who have admired her.

122cm wide, 127cm high, 42cm deep

32

Note:Court cupboards of similar shape were popular in England during thisperiod, and examples can be found in Victor Chinnery, Oak Furniture: TheBritish Tradition, Woodbridge, 1979 pages 322 and 471. This particularexample is rare and interesting for its thistle carving and its diminutiveproportions. Only 127cm high, one other example of a similar height butwider was sold at Wilkinson’s Auctioneers of Doncaster in their HurstCollection & Period Oak Sale in 2010. The thistle carving on early 17thcentury examples such as this one may allude to the ascension of James I &VI to the throne. A beautiful thistle carved panel decorates another 17thcentury cupboard sold at Bonhams, Fine Oak Furniture, Pewter and Works ofArt sale in 2007. Similar thistle motifs can be found on other oak courtcupboards of different periods, such as the example found in anotherBonhams sale, The Beedham Collection: Selected Oak Furniture & Works ofArt 1450 - 1750 in 2012, which is dated Charles I and may have been made inthe North Country. Another example is the Queen Anne cupboard sold at aBonhams Oak sale in 2011, where the combination of thistle and rosedecoration refers to the Act of Union of 1707.

Note:Although regularly associated as amerchant or tradesman’s mark theunusual symbol to the reverse ofthis piece is seen in various formsacross Europe. While it has severalpossible origins, it regularly fallsaback to the Quattuor Coronati (thefour Romans who were martyred forChristianity). Another Christian ideasuggests it is a stylised form of thelamb holding the flag. Perhaps thesimplest and most believable is thatthe symbol represents an old set ofscales where one arm wasconsiderably longer than the other,this theory carrying more weight asit connects closely with the tradeangle and also as the symbol is seenon weights and measures.

Note: Children’s chairs of the 17th century tend to be scaled down versions of adultchairs, although frequently with less elaborate carving and detail. Oftenidentified in period inventories as a ‘littel chayre’, they followed the fashion ofthe day with regional ideosyncracies just like their full-sized counterparts.The present child’s chair, with its intricately carved back panel of quatrefoilguilloche centred by flowerheads beneath a top rail with stylised gothicarches stands out for its sophistication, and boasts a rich dark patinationwhich adds to its rarity. For a discussion of 16th and 17th century children’schairs see Tobias Jellinek, ‘Early British Chairs and Seats, 1500-1700’, pgs147-156.

48cm wide, 96cm high

Provenance:By repute once part of Sir Walter Scott’s collection at Abbotsford.

Note:Leslie Taylor said of this chair: “This rich, rustic and primitive oakwainscot chair was found in the West Country, but is believed to havebeen in Sir Walter Scott’s collection of early oak at Abbotsford, hishome in the Scottish borders. As usual, I could not resist such aprovenance, as well as its extraordinary form, so I bought it joyfully! Itsits in a corner of my staircase, where I can see it daily, and gives mecourage and strength to tackle another day!”Abbotsford was the home of Sir Walter Scott since 1811 and it is in theDining Room that he died in 1832. The design of the house - whichScott called his “‘conundrum castle” - was inspired by local historicalbuildings and Scott’s knowledge of Scottish history. Carved stones anddark wooden panelling were salvaged from other buildings to decoratethe house, while his builders created new fittings taking inspirationfrom the historical buildings that Scott admired and wrote about.Furniture and furnishing were purchased in London to match the styleof the decoration and contributed to create the ancient atmosphere andtheatrical appearance that Scott was trying to achieve.Scott was also renowned as an antiquarian and collector, and he oftenjoked about his love for what he called ‘antiquarian old-womanries’. Hewas a very knowledgeable antiquary, as his library demonstrates, andtook great delight in the artefacts he collected - particularly the suits ofarmour, helmets, swords and guns, the accoutrements of a Highlandwarrior and the clubs of an Indian tribesman that to this day decoratethe Armoury.

62cm wide, 116cm high, 41cm deep

Note:This distinctive type of chair is a fineexample of the Franco-Scottishcacqueteuse chairs popular in the 17th century. The seaports on the eastern coast ofScotland supported a thriving trade andimport business more notably fromFrance to Aberdeen, which was a majorcentre of furniture craftsmanship. TheFrench influence can be seen in thisexample in the general form of thechair and in the architectural nature ofthe back. This example is alsocomparable to a group of chairsexecuted in the Scots vernacular styleand assembled at Trinity Hall,Aberdeen, whose significant featuresinclude a tall narrow back, a seat ofalmost triangular shape and the armssweeping round to grasp the sitter. Asimilar armchair was sold at Christie’sSale 6546, lot 333, ‘A collection of earlyoak furniture and metalware’ on 21stMay 2001, and another is illustrated inVictor Chinnery ‘Oak Furniture, TheBritish Tradition’, Woodbridge, 1979,p460, fig 4.94. Based on researchcarried out by Leslie Rankline Taylor,the initials on the back of this chair mayrelate to the Gunn family of Lybster,Caithness. The Gunn family, fromNorwegian descent, is an old clan whocan trace their presence in the countryto the early 13th century; they claimdescent from the legendary SweynAsleifsson, the so-called ‘UltimateViking’.

Note:For a similar example, see Chinnery, Oak Furniture, p302, figure 3:203.This is an example of the earliest forms of folding tables to be provided witha gate, now called ‘gate leg’ tables although this term was not in use in the17th century. These were fitted with a gate and leaf on one side, so that theycould be turned to side tables and pushed against a wall. In this example andin the one illustrated in Chinnery, the falling leaf is hung at the back andsupported by the gate. In the Chinnery example, the rear leg and stretcherare split to form the gate, while in this example the legs are joined by anundertier. Underneath the top a finely decorated compartment can be found,with very similar carving in both examples.

Note:The small plaque on this chair states that it came from Linlithgow Palace,once a stronghold for Scottish royalty and called home by many Stewartkings and queens. Legend has it that the good people of the town rushed tosalvage the valuable pieces of furniture as the palace was burned down bythe Duke of Cumberland in January 1746 during the Jacobite rebellion. Overtime pieces of furniture bearing similar plaques stating their LinlithgowPalace provenance have come to light. Leslie Rankine Taylor purchased thischair in the early 1960s.

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.
