Comprising: one with an openwork D-shaped plaque, tendril and leaf detail with inset cloisons of ruby, sapphire, tourmaline and glass, penannular hoop with disc terminals, stamped '???' and other marks to the ring and shank; one with openwork triangular plaque with scrolled tendrils and central ropework star, pierced lobe finial, penannular hoop with lobe terminals, stamped lozenge to the lobe finial and others to the hoop. 20.8 grams total, 57-80 mm (2 1/4 - 3 1/8 in.). Acquired 1970s. Ex property of an Essex, UK, collector. The stones set in the D-shaped plaque are a mixture of gem cuts from several time periods, the earliest being Tudor. It is likely that they are the silversmith's accumulation from several pieces of older jewellery broken down for their metal and stones. [No Reserve]

3rd century A.D. Displaying a figural scene in relief composed of a mounted rider (Dioscuros) advancing left towards the figure of Helen of Troy, in the upper register, the sun and the moon, behind the cavalryman a woman or image of Nike holding a crown upon his head. See Tudor, D., Corpus Monumentorum Religionis Equitum Danuviorum (CMRED), II. The analysis and interpretation of the monuments, Leiden-Brill, 1976, for discussion and iconography.74 grams, 90 mm (3 1/2 in.). From the collection of a North American gentleman, formed in the 1990s. The image of Sol Invictus assumed a great importance in the Danubian cult: the frequent representation of the celestial gods on the plaques is paralleled by their representation on monuments of other mystery cults, particularly the cult of Mithras. The image of a Dioscuros on horseback is linked to that of the Danubian rider. [No Reserve]For this specific lot, 5% import VAT is applicable on the hammer price
2nd-3rd century A.D. Displaying a figural scene in relief showing the Dioscuri, wearing a crested helmet and raising the right arm in salutation; the bust of Sol wearing a radiate crown and the horned bust of moon surmounted by a crescent, border to the perimeter representing two snakes; the inner border with seven six-pointed stars, a large dolphin-like creature swimming to the right, to the left a group of round objects; to the right of the left hand rider, a three-legged offering table with three candle-sticks; between the sun and the moon a standing female deity dressed in peplos and chiton, facing right with her right arm raised in front of her; behind the moon a bird waddling to left; to the right of the left hand rider, a cockerel; beneath the horse’s hooves two prostrate figures lying face down, head to the right and left, the right figure with the left knee bent in supplication; at the centre, between the two horsemen, a standing female deity in long chiton (Helen of Troy); behind the right horse, a standing male figure facing left with his right hand raised in salutation, wearing a knee length tunica, short boots and a heavy cloak; on the lower margin a small prostrate figure with head to the right, limbs extended, a twin-handled wine cup, a standard surmounted by a lamp, a figure hanging head down from a stunted tree and a lion stalking left. See Tudor, D., Corpus Monumentorum Religionis Equitum Danuviorum, 2 vols, Leiden, 1969-1976; Rinaldi Tufi, S., 'I cavalieri danubiani e i loro misteri', in I Daci, Catalogue of the exhibition, Milan, 1997, pp.90-91.61 grams, 70 mm (2 3/4 in.). From the collection of a North American gentleman, formed in the 1990s. The plaque contains a complex iconography of divine figures and symbols, probably associated with Thracian or Dacian beliefs of the Lower Danube region, but also with the Greek myth of the divine twins Castor and Pollux (the Dioscuri), an important element of Roman religion since its origins, here mixed with the cult of the Danubian rider. Presiding over the whole scene is usually the Sol Invictus (the unconquered sun-god) and his sister the Moon (Selene).

One of only 48, this rare, chrome-bumpered, Series 1A Corniche has been superbly restored.The two-door convertible version of the Silver Shadow has been, without doubt, the most commercially successful convertible ever produced by Rolls-Royce. First introduced in 1966 as the ‘Silver Shadow Mulliner Park Ward Two-Door, Drophead Coupe’, to give it its full title, the car was instantly in demand. When Rolls-Royce launched the two-door cars, the international jet-set began to clamour for attention at the dealerships. With waiting lists measured in years, these hugely desirable vehicles began to change hands at significant premiums over list price, and one can imagine the hushed negotiations over the green baize of the gaming tables at Crockfords, the Palm Beach and Aspinalls. Customers who ordered the Drophead were not the same people who purchased the company's sensible saloons, with the cars frequently being specified in bright colours, and eventually it became apparent that this version deserved to have its own model name so, after a few cosmetic changes in 1971, the Corniche was born. The name originally comes from the French word for a coastal road, particularly along the face of a cliff, most notably the Grande Corniche along the French Riviera above the principality of Monaco, and it was thought at the time that this new name might convey some of the style and glamour of Monte Carlo and, 50 years later, it still does. Rolls-Royce foresaw the time when RR owners would like to drive their own cars, and the Corniche continued to be developed with this in mind and even had a rev counter fitted as standard. Around 10% more power was coaxed from the proven 6,750cc aluminium-alloy V8 endowing the two-door with a top speed in excess of 120mph and sports car-embarrassing acceleration to match. Progressively developed, the Corniche received Rolls’ advanced split-level air conditioning system along with a re-designed fascia in 1976 - the first Rolls-Royce model to do so. Despite its sky-high asking price, the model proved a major success for Rolls-Royce; periodically revised and updated, it remained in production well into the 1990s, the last (convertible) examples being delivered in 1995.Delightfully understated in Tudor Grey with Evergreen leather, Olive carpets and a green soft top, this RR Corniche is a rare example of the Series IA, built for just less than a year in 1976 with only 48 Convertibles sold. The Series IA is often described as the 'Holy Grail' of Corniche production featuring many of the developments that were about to be introduced in the Corniche II including the later steering wheel, completely new fascia, bi-level air-conditioning, rack and pinion steering and upgraded suspension but retaining the aesthetically pleasing chrome bumpers.The car is in excellent overall condition having had an extensive recent restoration which included a bare metal respray, a full re-trim by Aldridge Trimming (roof, headlining, seats and carpets), an assessment of the mechanical aspects with remedial work where necessary, the original radio overhauled and upgraded, upgrades to the steering and suspension, a stainless steel exhaust system and new green seat belts.It's accompanied by a substantial quantity of history (four files) covering an interesting life with maintenance invoices, service records and ownership details. It was originally supplied to Victoria Island Properties in 1976 and amongst its notable owners, was Lord Peter Palumbo, Chairman of the Arts Council, who purchased the car from P&A Wood in 1992.The, possibly, slightly brash image of the Corniche from 40 years ago has long since been forgotten and they are now regarded as a well-designed, very desirable, supremely elegant four-seat classic convertible that would be welcome anywhere.SpecificationMake: ROLLS-ROYCEModel: SERIES IA CORNICHE CONVERTIBLEYear: 1976Chassis Number: DRH23398Registration Number: EHJ 39PTransmission: AutomaticEngine Number: 23398Drive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 83740 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: Evergreen Leather, Olive Carpets & Green HoodClick here for more details and images
