Superb large Arts & Crafts silver bowl - A E Jones
A superb large Arts and Crafts circular silver bowl, made by the highly collectable silversmith and designer Albert Edward Jones. Hallmarked for Birmingham 1918, with maker's mark AEJ and also stamped to the base "Connell, 83 Cheapside". The bowl is circular in form, raised on a pedestal base, with a hand hammered finish and two large cast applied handles which depict scenes from Aesop’s Fables. There is also an intricate frieze decoration running around the top of the bowl.
Albert Edward Jones (1878-1954) was born into a family of craftsmen dating back to 1780. He was apprenticed to Woodwards and then to Hardman Powells, and trained at the Birmingham Central School of Arts, where he gained a formidable reputation as a developer and innovator under Edward R. Taylor. As a Guildsman at the Birmingham Guild of Handicraft he was influenced by the Arts and Crafts Movement and met many artists and designers of the day. Having made some bronzeware at his father's premises, he left the family metalwork business and established his own firm in 1902. Success followed swiftly, with his workshop attracting a highly talented group of artists and craftsmen, who were all inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement.
In 1905 he acquired Jesson and Birkett, with its trade mark of St. Dunstan hand-raising a bowl. Jones collaborated with Edward Taylor's son, Howson, owner of the Ruskin Pottery, in mounting and using coloured pottery as liners for some of his pieces of silver, which at this time was all hand-raised. The company produced many antique clock cases with French movements and were renowned for their Ecclesiastical items. Following Jones' death in 1954, his son Kenneth Crisp Jones (who was also trained at the Central School of Art in Birmingham) took over the business in 1958, and it was more recently acquired by C. J. Vander of Sheffield.
Connell's were a highly regarded firm of dealers, situated at 83 Cheapside from 1845 until it went into voluntary liquidation in 1939, most probably as a result of the outbreak of war. Connell's of Cheapside have been described as "pioneers of modern artistic silverware" (Pudney, Silver Society Journal 11), and were one of the few traditional London dealers that promoted the work of the Arts and Crafts movement, alongside Liberty & Co. of Regent Street.
