The Manchester Cathedral Altar Pieces seen in a hastily shot image in my workshop!

On a visit to the Cathedral during 2007, I was informed that thieves had stolen the Candlesticks. Then came a further shock as I discovered that the Altar Cross had been crudely sawn from its original base and stuck onto what looks like a broom handle and in this way now serves as a Processional Cross!

A 4-light Candelabrum, privately commissioned in celebration of a 25th wedding anniversary.

Ceremonial Mace, commissioned by HM. Government for the UK Parliamentary ‘Independence Gift’ to the Parliament of Mauritius.

The heavy Head counter-balanced by a piece of Mauritian Basalt, on a rosewood shaft. The inlay of ‘Mother o’ Pearl’ (supplied from Mauritius) and a naturalistic chased detail of sugar cane were both worked by me, otherwise this piece was manufactured chiefly by Mr. Francis Beck of Wakely & Wheeler & Co. Ltd., London).

Images show two details of the Mauritius Mace, the naturalistic chasing of sugar cane close to the Head of the Mace and Indian Ocean ‘Mother o’ Pearl’ inlaid into silver at the lower end of the Shaft, and below that is a piece of Mauritius volcanic rock (basalt) forming the Foot of the Mace. The Mauritian ‘Coat of Arms’ is mounted on top of the Head of the Mace.

A leather covered Stand made for this Mace is not illustrated.

‘Bobbin’ or ‘Spool’ Candlesticks, silver, with oxidised punch-work decoration.

First made in 1970.

Yet another variation was subsequently made in silver, after 2006.
