Silver handles 85.1958.2-6
| |
Five handles, about 1903-7 Made for Ernest Gimson by the silversmith, John Paul Cooper Silver Largest 4.5cm long, smallest 3cm It is not clear whether the design originated with Gimson or Cooper, quite possibly it was a collaborative effort. They were used on the internal drawers of cabinets and other small items. The Architectural Review in February 1908 singled them out for praise in a review of Gimson’s exhibition at Debenham & Freebody’s: The metal fittings are particularly delicate, and in particular the little T handles used for small cabinet drawers are a lesson in refinement. Purchased from Henry W. Pollard in 1958 85 1958/2‑6  |
