Todays offering: An antique 9K gold cigarette case 5.4 gms made by London-based silversmiths and antique silver dealers ‘Jay, Richard Attenborough & Co Ltd‘. 

They described themselves as ‘Goldsmiths, Diamond Merchants and Watchmakers’; they traded from 142-144 Oxford Street, London, from c.1905 until the late 1950s, although like many 20th century antique silver dealers (such as Harman & Lambert, or Birch & Gaydon), Attenborough can trace their genealogy into the 18th century – their business letterhead states that they were established in 1796.

The Attenborough business was acquired by the silversmith James Charles Jay in 1887 and by 1904 had become Jay, Richard Attenborough & Co Ltd – the business seems to have closed sometime in the 1960s?

Found frameable ephemera at Gadabout:

"Peace is not mere absence of war, it is a virtue”, wrote Spinoza:“Pax enim non belli privatio, sed virtus est”. And he added it is “a state of mind, a disposition for benevolence, confidence, justice”.
Indeed, there can only be true peace if people are confident. At peace with their political system. Reassured that their basic rights are respected.
