Stunning Henry Hollamby Penshurst Place Tunbridge Ware Writing Slope mid 1800's
Normal 0 MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Stunning Henry Hollamby Penshurst Place Tunbridge Ware Writing Slope mid 1800's I have never had a tunbridge ware slope this rare or special.I believe this was crafted by the famous Henry Hollamby who was one of the most decorated and renowned tunbridge makers. He was famous for his top class topographical tunbridge ware of Hever. Tonbridge Castle and the lovely Penshurst Place among a few others. He is also famous for specialising in the very time consuming an beautifully intricate method of tesellated mosaic. This slope is a beautiful example of his work at its best and shows both a stunning portrayal of Penshurst Place as well as various beautiful marquetry inlay work and British flag ensigns. Henry Hollamby was a renowned Tunbridge Ware maker. He started in the Tunbridge Ware industry at the age ... moreof 12 in 1831 as an apprentice to George& James Burrows. After his apprenticeship he worked in his own business until 1891. Both as a retailer and a wholesaler. Unlike many of his contemporaries. Hollamby only worked in tesellated mosaic. He was particularly renowned for producing many of the topographical subjects in Tunbridge Ware, including views close to home and further afield. Local views include The Pantiles, Penshurst Place. Hever& Tonbridge Castle. Hollamby rarely labelled his work. History of Tunbridge Ware) Following an apprenticeship to the Burrows family. Henry Hollamby set up on his own in 1842 to become the largest manufacturer of Tunbridge Ware, employing around 40 people. Noted for his large views of famous buildings, the business was destroyed by fire in 1891 and never revived. Robert Russell also exhibited at the Great Exhibition and worked in Tunbridge producing sophisticated designs for over 20 years.
