1. Pendant for a Lamp carved in Oak. This graceful piece of carving
formerly hung from the roof of the Hall in Anderson’s Place, an
Elizabethan Mansion in which lodged Charles I. during his stay in
Newcastle, and in which took place the negotiation between the Scotch
Army and the Parliamentarians. It now serves to suspend a Chandelier and
belongs to G. Rippon, Esq. South Shields.
2. Is a beautiful specimen of French carving, 17th century. It has been
cast in brass lately at Birmingham, but, owing to the complexity of the
parts, is expensive even in that form.
