This shagreen, silver and enamel cigarette box and cover, made for Liberty and Co and attributed to Manx designer Archibald Knox (1854-1933), doubled its estimate to sell for £10,500 at Halls (20% buyer’s premium) in Shrewsbury on June 21. The box had been discovered by Halls’ fine art director Jeremy Lamond in Hereford. On sale day it attracted interest from six phone bidders.
