Henry Simpole Chatsworth Blue Stardust, 2008

The Chatsworth Collection was launched in 2008 in 3 popular Conway Stewart colours; Classic Black, Blue Stardust, and Red Stardust. We have a small number of each colour from Henry’s Estate. These were Henry Simpole’s own pens and are all hall-marked with his HCS mark.

The Sterling Silver filigree is by far the most detailed and intricate filigree design that Henry ever made for Conway Stewart. The Chatsworth design incorporates delicate lace-like strands of silver with a graceful and enchanting bow whose design was drawn from a much loved Valentines card. For every Simpole designed overlay for Conway Stewart, Henry meticulously works into the design the initials ‘C’ & ‘S’ for Conway Stewart.

Simpole took his inspiration for his pattern ideas from sources as varied as antique theatre programmes and vintage ornament storage boxes, as well from his extensive library of great artists: Rene Lalique, William Morris, Moorcroft and numerous others, with especial attention to his favourite, Alphonse Mucha.
