EXHIBITION at STYLES SILVER
DON PORRITT is one of the major silversmiths featured in my book 'DESIGNER BRITISH SILVER -
from Studios Established 1930-1985'. At 87 years old he is still producing cutting edge work.
STYLES SILVER first showed his work successfully in 2009 for ‘BRITISH SILVER WEEK’ and
are excited about having such a good cross section of his work here now.
Full Exhibition can be seen on this page :

PROVENANCE: The GERALD and JANET BENNEY Collection of Silver
This was probably the first piece of silver made by Gerald Benney at the the Brighton College of Art in 1946.
(He studied under Dunstan Pruden there until 1948,)
ANTHONY ELSON studied under Pruden at Brighton in 1955 and he told me:
'The first thing that Pruden asked his fulltime students to make was a small bowl. This involved raising, planishing and shaping and finally soldering and all this took several weeks to complete.'
Gerald's father, Ernest Sallis Benney, was Principal of the Brighton School so would have had access to their mark to assay it for him later.
Bonhams 20 November 2013 Lot 114 catalogue reads:
This was possibly made earlier and similar to other noted works made by Gerald while at the Brighton College of Art later hallmarked.

| Made by Louis Osman in 1950
War damage to Palladian houses in Cavendish Square, London owned by the Sisters of the Society of the Holy Child Jesus needed restoration and the 33 year old Louis Osman took it on. This wood model of his design for a bridge linking Nos. 12 and 13 was actually sent to Rome for approval. (It was delayed in customs for some weeks). The statue of the Madonna and Child was by Jacob Epstein and unfortunately the original maquette by Epstein is missing from this model.
Height: 61 cm
Width: 33 cm
Depth: 16 cm
Illustrated on page 38 'Louis Osman' by Jenny Moore
Provenence: Acquired when Osman's house Harpton Court, Presteigne was sold by his daughter, Marie-Louise

| Following on from Hanoverian without rat-tail came Plain Old English which was very popular from 1760 to 1800. The forks were now four pronged and the end of the spoon turned down instead of up so that they could be crested or initialled on the front. This remains one of the most popular patterns as it can be used equally well in a modern or antique setting.
All sets come in cutlery rolls unless boxed.
