David Wackett talks us through more of the remarkable Czilinsky Collection, coming to auction at Ewbank’s on 25 September.
Across three generations, the Czilinsky family produced intricately carved luxury handles for some of London’s most prestigious retailers, including Swaine & Adeney, Brigg and Paragon S. Fox & Co. Limited.
Among them was Emil Czilinsky, who trained as a wood and ivory carver alongside his brothers, continuing the remarkable family tradition of creating highly detailed animal headed handles for walking sticks and umbrellas.
