The Jeremiah Lee Mansion

The Jeremiah Lee Mansion

There are two structures which made an impression on me early in my childhood and sort of set the standard for historic grandeur in my mind: Dartmouth Hall at Dartmouth College, where my father began his career, and The Lady Pepperrell House in Kittery, Maine, close to my hometown of York where we moved when he moved on to the University of New Hampshire. Of course, Dartmouth Hall is a Colonial…

      ~ “Frank Gardner Hale, who was born there in 1876. His interests in art and design were obvious, but her path to jewellery making was not straightforward. Hale's education began with his studies at the Norwich Art School and Boston Museum School.After graduating, Hale moved to England, where he studied at the Guild of Handicrafts. There, he designed book covers and music for eight years before embarking on studying jewellery design.In 1906, Hale joined the CR Ashbee's Guild of Handicrafts at Chipping Campden in the Cotswolds, where he learned goldsmithing and enameling. After his studies, he moved to London to work with Fred Partridge, an esteemed jeweller and enameler. Back in Boston in 1907, Hale opened shop and joined the Society of Arts & Crafts, making him a master a year later. Most Hale's coins were set in gold or sterling silver. The pendants were often hung from golden chain strands, decorated with more colourful gemstones. In 1930, Hale founded the Marblehead Arts Association in Marblehead, Massachusetts. Frank Gardner Hale passed away in December 1945.1915: Bronze Medal of Excellence: Boston Society of Arts and Crafts1915: Silver Medal: Panama Pacific Exhibition in San Francisco1917: Frank Logan Prize and Bronze Medal: Applied Arts Exhibit, Chicago Arts Institute 2014: Frank Gardner Hale's updated opal and peridot pendant debuts in the American wing of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.1 LEFT: This photograph shows Edward Everett Oakes, John Ballou and Frank Gardner Hale (left-right), most likely in Hale's workshop on Southampton Street, circa 1909. RIGHT: An opal pendant, framed by glistening gold elements accented with sapphires and green garnets and Hale’s iconic grape clusters, is one of the prime examples of the colourful ‘Bostonian look’. 2 Frank Gardner Hale. Among the longest and most spectacular examples of Boston jewellers, this necklace features a large butterfly pendant with carved jade wings, a blue-green enamel body, and gold antennas. It is rare to find an example of Boston jewellery in its original box. This monumental necklace, with its oversized pendant and extraordinarily long chain, is custom-fitted in box brown and gold brocade interior. The words ‘Frank Gardner Hale’ and ‘Boston’ are etched in gold on the left side.” ~
