Description
Mace head, chased and engraved silver set with green pearl blisters designed by C R Ashbee and made by the Guild of Handicraft. Ashbee described it as a: 'Challenge Mace: designed as a gift from Captain R M Glossop as a gift to the Chipping Campden Sports Club, to be competed for by the girls who race at the Annual Swimming Sports for a silken smock.' The head was once crowned with Dover's Castle, an embelm of the Cotswold Games held of Dover's Hill near Chipping Campden, but the form has been altered during the object's history.
