The spa town of Carlsbad (now called Karlovy Vary, CzechRepublic) was also well known in the 18th century for its fine steelwork. A book of 1771 records that “Carlsbad steel-workers andcutlers make all kinds of wares which are widely known under thename of ‘Carlsbad work’. They are partly made of steel and brass,fire-blued and gilded, and sometimes with fine inlay-work in silverand gold. This last is the most elaborate, finest and costliest andthe price is often in excess of that of silver articles of the samekind.” See J.F. Hayward, The Art of the Gunmaker, Vol II, London,1963, p.131.

Christened ‘Le Café de l’Europe’ by the Holy Roman Emperor Joseph II after avisit in 1781, the summer season in the small Ardennes town of Spa throngedwith Kings, Princes, nobles and all who could afford it from across theContinent. The main source was named after Peter the Great, who visited in1721, and Europe’s first casino opened in 1761; the second casino andassembly halls of 1770 was named ‘Le Waux-Hall’ after London’s famouspleasure grounds. Naturally a trade in luxury goods, souvenirs and ‘les jolités’flourished, including the speciality ‘Bois de Spa’ (or sometimes ‘Boites deSpa’), lacquered boxes often painted with views of the town and surroundings.
Antoine Le Loup, a native of Spa and known for finely detailed monochromeviews, often on parchment mounted onto boxes, was the son of Remacle LeLoup, another landscape artist. His work also apparently featured on a Meissendinner service, to be found towards the end of the 18th century for sale at ashop in Spa under the sign of ‘Le Cavalier’(http://membres.multimania.fr/histoirespadoise/ceramiquespadois.html).
His neighbour, a priest, recorded that he was still at work painting when hedied alone at eight in the evening, isolated from friends and family, on 21stNovember 1802 (http://www.spahistoire.info/bredar.html, accessed 12.10.11).

The edition of 650 chess sets was produced as the sole accreditedInternational Chess Federation commemorative set of the famousSpassky-Fischer World Championship Match held in Iceland in theJuly and August of 1972. Dubbed as the Match of the Century,Fisher’s win ended the twenty-four-year Soviet domination of thechampionship.
The film director and polymath, Cy Endfield (1914-95), designedand produced the chess set: according to The Times (whomarketed 200 of the sets) it was whilst on location making Zulu(1964) and frustrated by the travelling chess set he was using, that Endfield was inspired by the notion of pieces which wouldinterlock to form a cylinder.

It has been suggested that this piece may have been made inFrance, where Sheffield plate is known to have been made in theearly 19th century. However the lion masks bear striking similaritiesto those found on pieces made in England at Sheffield, where theSheffield plate process was invented (see Frederick Bradbury,History of Old Sheffield Plate, Sheffield, 1912, pp. 367 & 416). Thelatter, a tea equipage or tea machine, is from a catalogue of about1808, in the possession of Thomas Bradbury & Sons (then known asWatson & Bradbury), a firm well known in the trade at that time fortheir large export business to Europe and America.

The inscription reads: In Grateful remembrance of Dr Gully’s great kindness from D.P.
The inscription refers to Dr James Manby Gully (1808-1883), famous for his hydrotherapy cures.Together with his partner James Watson, he founded a clinic in Malvern, which treated many arenowned Victorian, including Tennyson, Darwin, Dickens and Florence Nightingale. Thetreatment started at five in the morning, when dressed in a wet sheet, the patient was doused inbuckets of cold water, followed by walks, plenty of water from the wells, a couple of dry biscuits,a variety of treatments in various baths and a dinner consisting always of either boiled mutton orfish, followed by a few hours in a dry bed; apparently the Spartan regime was beneficial to most.Dr Gully is also more infamously remembered for his involvement with Florence Ricardo. Theirextramarital affair was apparently over when she married the lawyer Charles Bravo in 1875.Several months later Charles Bravo was poisoned by antimony. Dr Gully testified at the inquest,but in spite of huge public interest, the case went unsolved and the murder remains an intriguingmystery to this day.
