Item Details
Description
A blue and white Davenport brand, Floresque pattern dish that was formerly the property of John Lennon when he lived in his Weybridge home Kenwood in the mid to late 1960s.

When John moved to Tittenhurst Park in 1969, he placed many of his possession’s from "Kenwood" into storage, which was arranged by his haulage contractors and personal assistants Ken and Margaret Brunt. After some time, however, John no longer had use of the items and he instructed the Brunts to keep which ever they liked or had use for and dispose or the remainder of the items.

Ken and Margaret Brunt were neighbours to John Lennon in Weybridge and were originally solely employed by Lennon in the capacity of haulage contractors and personal assistants. They were involved with John in numerous projects, including taking delivery of the psychedelic Rolls-Royce from Chertsey; transporting the psychedelic caravan to John's island off the coast of Ireland; retrieving the damaged Austin Maxi car from Scotland after John and Yoko's accident; accompanying John and Yoko to Cambridge for their "Cambridge '69" concert which was released on the Life With The Lions album; and moving John and Yoko's belongings out of Kenwood to Montague Square. As a result of their initial employment with John, Ken and Margaret Brunt were employed by Apple after the company was set up in 1968.

Accompanied by a signed letter of provenance from David Brunt, Ken and Margaret’s son.
