All auctions / Silver & Gold / The 1802 Richmond “Gold Cup”, by Robert Adam, Paul Storr and Robert Makepeace
This exceptional silver-gilt trophy was made by Paul Storr in 1802, by arrangement with the London retailer Robert Makepeace. It is in the form of a classical footed cup with squared handles and separate shaped cover. It is embossed, chased and engraved with a fluted frieze enclosing two rectangular panels, one showing two horses racing under the words ‘Richmond 1802’ and a horse and groom under the names ‘Charles Brandling and Timothy Hutton Esq.rs Stewards’. The arms of Richmond appear under one handle and a roundel with a Tudor rose encircled by the motto ‘St Guillem Burgi Richmond’ under the other. There is a vacant reed-framed cartouche on each side above gadrooning and a knopped stem. The foot is encircled by a victor’s laurel wreath and fits onto a separate wooden socle. The cup has been preserved in the original velvet-lined shaped leather case which has a brass lock plate, closures and carrying handle, and a paper label reading ‘Robt. Makepeace, Goldsmith and Jeweller, Serle St. Lincoln Inn Fields’ inside the hinged lid. English, 1802.
