Provenance: Samuel Piguenit, and then by descent to the current owner.Samuel Piguenit born 25th November 1764 and baptised at St MauriceWinchester, the son of James Piguenit and Elizabeth Avery. They werea Huguenot family who had fled to England.

Samuel elected to go to sea and became a Purser in the Royal Navyand in the mid 1790s found himself on station in the West Indies.

In particular he was the Purser of the Perdrix, which the British hadcommissioned on 2 February 1796 under the command of CaptainWilliam Charles Fahie. On 13 January 1798, while Fahie was onleave to take temporary command of the fleet, then anchoredbefore St. Kitts, Lieutenant Charles Peterson was in command ofPerdrix. She and Favourite, which was under the command ofThomas Pitt, Lieutenant Lord Camelford, were both in EnglishHarbour, Antigua undergoing refit. A dispute arose between the twolieutenants over who was senior and so in charge of the port andboth vessels. In the dispute, Camelford shot and killed Peterson formutiny. What triggered the dispute was the departure from theharbour on the previous day of HMS Babet, whose captain, JemmetMainwaring, had previously been the senior officer in the port.Peterson had been first lieutenant under Camelford for threemonths when Camelford had taken over Favourite, even thoughPeterson was senior on the lieutenants list and represented CaptainFahie. The two ships’ companies almost fired on each other whenCamelford shot Petersen. Captain Henry Mitford of HMS Matildaarrived that evening and put Camelford under arrest. Mitford putLieutenant Parsons of Favourite in command of Perdrix and sent herout to sea. The subsequent court martial acquitted Camelford.Samuel Piguenit was called as a witness during this Court martial.

The significance of his presence at St Kitts is that he had marriedRebecca Burt on 12 April 1795 at St George’s Basseterre. They hadthree children, of whom James George Piguenit the youngest wasborn in 1799.

It is not known what happened to Samuel but it is believed that hewas lost at sea about 1803.

Lieutenant General Sir James Outram (1803-1863).

Burke’s Peerage, in a graceful passage written towards the end of his life in recognition of his distinguishedmilitary career concluded that ‘James Outram, whose active and glorious co-operation in crushing the Indianmutiny won him lasting fame.... went to India as a cadet in 1819, and rose to be lieut. general there, througha series of deeds, civil and military, of infinite good to the public weal. He was, while Resident andCommissioner at Lucknow, sent, in Nov 1856, to command the British forces in Persia, where he wasinvariably fortunate. He was present at Bushire, gained the battle of Kooshab, 8 Feb. and took part in thevictory of Mohammerah, 28 March 1857.

From Persia he returned to India, to aid in the suppression of the insurrection, then at the very height of itsguilt and cruelty. He marched to relieve (Sir Henry) Havelock, and formed an effective junction with him, whenthey together stormed Lucknow, and saved the garrison of the Residency. Outram shared also in the heroismof the holding out until Lord Clyde arrived, and in all that fierce and armed struggle - never to be forgotten-which ensued and resulted in final success. Sir James was appointed a Knight Grand Cross of the MilitaryDivision of the Order of the Bath, 29 July 1857, for his services in Persia, having previously been nominated aKnight Commander (civil), and was created a Baronet by patent, dated 10 Nov 1858, for his conduct in India.Sir James Outram was lieut. general of India’.

This set of four tazzae were part of a larger suite, and part of this suite was sold at Sotheby’s Fine Silver Sale,New Bond Street, 10th June 1993, lot 532.

Provenance: purchased from Koopman, Sept 1992.

Although 18th century Jamaican silver is rare, it is thought that at least twenty-three goldsmiths were working there in the mid 18th century.By this time there was concern that substandard articles were being produced. An act was passed and there was the introduction of anassay master. The first master was Charles Wood, and he was replaced in 1749 by Anthony Danvers. Danvers is thought to have come fromLiverpool, and it is thought he died in Kingston in 1772. The practice of assay marking appears to have stopped by about 1765.

Geradus Stoutenburgh may have originally come from New York.

785. A George III silver plate from Admiral Lord Nelson’s Copenhagen service,by Timothy Renou, London 1801,circular form, gadroon border, engraved with Nelson’s armorial, diameter 25.2cm, approx. weight 18oz.

£8,000-12,000

Provenance: purchased at the Christie’s Bridport sale on 12 July 1895, by John Spink, (1827-1904), and then bydirect descent to the present owner.

On the 2 April 1801, Lord Nelson was instrumental in another significant victory, this time over the Danish fleetat Copenhagen. The committee of Lloyds gifted a further £500 to augment his growing collection of plate.This was to compliment his Nile silver service, which was commissioned after a gift from Lloyds and madeby Paul Storr, to celebrate his victory at the Battle of the Nile on the 1st August 1798.

When Nelson received the news of his second gift he immediately instructed one of his captains, EdwardParker, to write to Alexander Dawson asking him contact Rundell and Bridge in order to ‘make what you thinknecessary to add to the rest, to make a complete set, such as plates or whatever you think right’. The orderincluded six dozen gadrooned circular plates and eighteen soup plates. These were supplied by a number ofLondon goldsmiths including Timothy Renou.

On Nelson’s death his plate was extensively divided, however the bulk of the silver went to his brother, EarlNelson, thereafter passing to the Bridport Family via the marriage of the earl’s first daughter to the then LordBridport. At a celebrated auction in 1895, the Bridport family’s Nelson relics were put on the open market,and dispersed.

Four of the plates were given to Lloyd’s in 1936, six were presented to the National Maritime Museum in1939 by The Revd. Hugh Nelson-Ward. Some are in the Walter and Turner Collection and the GreenwichHospital Collection, some of which were presented by Spink.

In 1919 twenty-three plates from the Copenhagen service were presented to the Royal Navy, and these wereallocated to various Royal Naval Shore Establishments. One plate can be seen on show in the Nelson galleryin the Royal Naval Museum, situated just opposite HMS Victory, in her dry dock at the Portsmouth Naval base.

SOCIETY OF FINE ART AUCTIONEERS AND VALUERS and the ROYAL INSTITUTION OF CHARTERED SURVEYORS

CONDITIONS OF BUSINESS

INFORMATION FOR BUYERS 1. Introduction. The following informative notes are intended to assistBuyers, particularly those inexperienced or new to our salerooms. All salesare conducted on our printed Conditions of Sale which are readily availablefor inspection and normally accompany catalogues. Our staff will be happyto help you if there is anything you do not fully understand.

2. Agency. As auctioneers we usually contract as agents for the sellerwhose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is not normally disclosed.Accordingly if you buy your primary contract is with the seller.

3. Estimates. Estimates are designed to help buyers gauge what sort of summight be involved for the purchase of a particular lot. The lower estimatemay represent the reserve price and certainly will not be below it.Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT (where chargeable).Estimates are prepared some time before the sale and may be altered byannouncement before the sale. They are in no sense definitive.

4. The purchase price. The Buyer shall pay the hammer price together witha premium thereon of 22% on the first £500,000 and 12% thereafter +VAT at the appropriate rate.

5. VAT. (*) indicates that VAT at the current standard rate is payable by thepurchaser on the hammer price as well as being an element in the buyer’spremium. This imposition of VAT is likely to be because the seller is registeredfor VAT within the European Union and is not operating the Dealers MarginScheme or because VAT is due at 20% on importation into the UK. The doublesymbol (**) indicates that the lot has been imported from outside the EuropeanUnion and the present position is that these lots are liable to a reduced rate ofVAT (5%) on the gross lot price (i.e. both the hammer price and the buyer’spremium). Lots which appear without either of the above symbols indicatethat no VAT is payable on the hammer price. This is because such lots are soldusing the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme and it should be noted that the VATincluded within the Premium is not recoverable as input tax.

6. We are, primarily, agents for the seller. We are dependent on informationprovided by the seller and whilst we may inspect lots and act reasonably intaking a general view about them we are normally unable to carry out adetailed or any examination of lots in order to ascertain their condition in theway in which it would be wise for a buyer to do. Intending buyers have ampleopportunity for inspection of goods and, therefore, accept responsibility forinspecting and investigating lots in which they may be interested. Pleasenote carefully the exclusion of liability for the condition of lots contained inthe Conditions of Sale. Neither the seller nor we, as the auctioneers, acceptany responsibility for their condition. In particular, mechanical objects of anyage are not guaranteed to be in working order. However, in so far as we haveexamined the goods and make a representation about their condition, weshall be liable for any defect which that examination ought to have revealedto the auctioneer but which would not have been revealed to the buyer hadthe buyer examined the goods. Additionally, in specified circumstances lotsmisdescribed because they are ‘deliberate forgeries’ may be returned andrepayment made. There is a 3 week time limit. (The expression ‘deliberateforgery’ is defined in our Conditions of Sale).

7. Electrical goods. These are sold as ‘antiques’ only and if bought for usemust be checked over for compliance with safety regulations by aqualified electrician first.

8. Export of goods. Buyers intending to export goods should ascertain (a) whetheran export licence is required for the goods to leave the U.K. and (b) whetherthere is any specific prohibition on importing the goods in question into thedestination country because, e.g. they may contain prohibited materials such asivory. Charges may be applicable for export licences. Ask us if you need help.

The denial of any permit or licence shall not justify cancellation or rescission ofthe sale contract or any delay in payment.

9. Bidding. Bidders will be required to register before the sale commencesand lots will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form.Some form of identification will be required if you are unknown to us.Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for telephone bidding.

10. Commission bidding. Commission bids may be left with the auctioneersindicating the maximum amount to be bid excluding buyers’ premium. Theywill be executed as cheaply as possible having regard to the reserve (if any)and competing bids. If two buyers submit identical commission bids theauctioneers may prefer the first bid received. Please enquire in advance aboutour arrangements for the leaving of commission bids by telephone or fax.

11. Methods of Payment. As a general rule any cheques tendered will needto be cleared before removal of the goods is permitted. Please discusswith our Office in advance of the sale if other methods of payment areenvisaged (except cash).

12. Collection and storage. Please note what the Conditions of Sale state aboutcollection and storage. It is important that goods are paid for and collectedpromptly. Any delay may involve the buyer in paying storage charges.

TERMS OF CONSIGNMENT FOR SELLERS 1. Interpretation. In these Terms the words ‘you’, ‘yours’, etc. refer to theSeller and if the consignment of goods to us is made by an agent weassume that the Seller has authorised the consignment and that theconsignor has the Seller’s authority to contract. Similarly the words ‘we’,‘us’, etc. refer to the Auctioneers.

However, we for our own protectionassume liability for property consigned to us at lower pre-sale estimate.To justify accepting liability, we make a charge of 1.5% of the hammerprice plus VAT or, if unsold, our mid estimate of the hammer price. If theowner of goods consigned instructs us in writing not to take such action,they then remain at owner’s risk unless and until the property in thempasses to the Buyer or they are collected by or on behalf of the owner,and clause 4 is inapplicable.

We also carry out valuations for Family Division, Capital Gains Tax, and Private Treaty Sales.
