Cornish shipwreck interest, Two bronze manillas, salvaged from the wreck of the Douro off the Western rocks of the Scillies, lost in 1843, width 6cm (2). Provenance: Michael Trethewey. A Gentleman of Taste. We are delighted to be selling in this sale and over forthcoming sales, items from the estate of the collector Michael Trethewey. Michael had an unerring eye for quality. He was a frequent visitor to these auction rooms, an elegantly dressed, unassuming man who bought well and had a singular passion for old-school antiques.
