Framed Print of Silver cradle presented to the wife of the Mayor of Brighton, 1883. Creator: Unknown
Silver cradle presented to the wife of the Mayor of Brighton, 1883. The quaint and pleasant custom of presenting a miniature silver cradle to the wife of a Mayor, who has had a child born during his year of office, was this year observed in the town of Brighton. The handsome piece of plate, indeed, shown in our Illustration is not quite a silver cradle, but very nearly approaches it, being a centre ornament, in silver on an ebony stand, bearing a nautilus shell, emblem of the cradle, as the central device. On one side appear the Brighton arms, and on the other the inscription "Presented by the Corporation of Brighton to the Mayoress, Mrs. Arthur H. Cox, in commemoration of the birth of a daughter, on June 11, 1883." Below the ornament formed a cylinder, with raised figures in the Wedgwood style, and was flanked by two sphynxes looking outwards and supporting small tazze. This beautiful gift was supplied by Mr. Alderman Edward Martin, silversmith, of Bartholomews, Brighton'. From "Illustrated London News", 1883.
