We are proud to offer up for auction, the estate of
Florence (Fu) Eleanor Ueltzen.
In the year 1900, amidst the smoke and flames of the Boxer Rebellion, the
terror and trials of life, a fragment of beauty, so rare and so exquisite in
form, emerged like that of a Phoenix Rising from the Ashes?c
Several bulks of Chinese silver bullion, equivalent to the size of a small
dining table, were discovered by the American military. While heavily guarded
at the Tientsin Imperial Mint, luminaries such as China?fs Grand Duke,Li
Hongzhang, and members of the late Imperial family, Qing dynasty, came to a
decision that would both honor and behold their western redeemers for many
years to come, and to set forth a story of such History and Honor; a large
?gbowl?h crafted entirely of that Sterling, and a number of commemorative sets
of tea services to be fashioned by the renowned studio of Arthur and Bond, of
Yokohama, Japan.
Thus, as History beholds, the items were created, but for members of society of
discerning stature: The Liscum Bowl and coordinating ?gcups?h, an additional
Tea Service, & The William Boyce Thompson Tea Service.
William Boyce Thompson, a pillar of stature in his own right, twice a delegate
to the Republican National Convention (1916, 1920); Director of the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York, (1914-1919); also noted philanthropist and financier
of mining interests in Montana, Nevada and Arizona; benefactor of the William
Boyce Institute and Arboretum, came to commission one of these immaculate tea
sets.
On behalf of Catbecca.com Auctions, it is our esteemed pleasure to present to
the World Wide Community, The William Boyce Thompson Tea Service, of Liscum
Bowl Provenance, of circa 1906.
Furthermore, such items of great historical and Imperial Qing and Dynasty,
Catbecca.com Auctions, http://www.catbecca.com, cordially extends an invitation
for your attendance as we honor the craftsman, the dignitary, the genius, and
the estate of Florence ?gFu?h Eleanor Ueltzen.
