Rare Newlyn Arts And Crafts Copper Page Turner With Fish Handle

A rare and very unusual piece from the Newlyn school…..A large page turner….The piece is made from very heavy gauge copper….The handles are decorated with diving fish and bubbles typical of the guild….Beautifully made by soldering the two worked copper handle panels on to the blade of the page turner….With delicate stippling around the design again typical of the guild….I have never seen another example before and through research I cannot find one in any archives….The edge of the blade has some roughness which could be polished out but it is just a part of the pieces life…The design is still good just a little worn from handling….Unmarked so pre 1906….A good piece…

Measuring 15”
