We and pleased to present this catalogue for the family of the late Judith and Bruce Terry. This collection is truly outstanding, both for its quality and its breadth, and we highly recommend attending the viewing in person.

Viewings will be held onsite at Teychel, the gracious Terry family home in Moule Avenue, Brighton, offering an extraordinary opportunity for collectors to view this remarkable collection of furniture, paintings and decorative arts in one of Melbourne’s finest properties.

Some of the finest pieces showcased here have been selected for a very special auction that we are holding mid year entitled “Exceptional in Australia,” to allow time for further research and also so that they may be viewed alongside other outstanding examples of their International Art and International decorative arts genres.

We welcome your interest in this quality single owner collection, and we look forward to being of service to you.

The Collection of the late Judith & Bruce Terry

Judith and Bruce Terry shared a love of collecting and travel. This passion would take them to London and regional England, sometimes twice a year, where they would attend the exhibitions of many of the most prestigious antique-dealerships, such as Partridge and Mallett, whose clientele included many of the world’s wealthiest antique collectors acquiring exceptional furniture for grand homes in the UK and Europe, as well as America.

Judith and Bruce secured many fine pieces in the 1970s and 1980s at a time when not many Australian antique collectors were buying on the International market in such a way.

Bruce was very well-known in vintage and classic car circles, but Judith also shared this

love of great British cars and together they owned and drove fabulous examples by RollsRoyce, Jaguar, as well as those by Triumph and MG to name just a few. These they housed in a separate property opposite Teychel in Moule avenue, with exceptional and purpose-built garaging facilities. Building was in Bruce’s blood. He was a self- made man and was very successful in first building, and then developing, properties around Melbourne.

Judith was also very successful as a fashion model under her maiden name Judith Baker and she had a love of interior design. It was Judith that was the driving force of collecting the antiques and the art and putting it all together stylishly at their Brighton home. Her

love of European houses and landscapes is evident both in the way Teychel was developed as a property with its Italianate influences and also in the collection itself with a strong focus on European art.

Judith and Bruce Terry’s daughter Bettina and son Gavin grew up at Teychel and being surrounded by this collection seemed normal to them in their youth, as they played around the property, with its glorious beach-front position. Summer memories that will stay with them for life. But time moves on for everyone and so now the property is being sold, as is the collection of art and antiques, that will go on to grace other collections here in Australia and Internationally.

A very rare Chelsea porcelain floral and bird in landscape painted blue and white glazed lobed circular plate from the Mecklenberg Strelitz service, English, circa 1763/5

This exceptionally grand service was completed in March 1765; it marks a change in the custom of using silver to furnish dining tables by including ceramic candelabra and the large centrepiece although they retain metalwork shapes. This is not surprising given the manager of the Chelsea Porcelain Factory at the time was the silversmith Nicholas Sprimont (1716-71).

In October 1766 the traveller Thomas Nugent noticed among the other 'curiosities' in the palace at Neustrelitz 'a complete service of Chelsea porcelane, rich and beautiful in fancy beyond expression. I really never saw any Dresden porcelane near so fine; her Majesty made a present of this choice collection to the Duke her brother'. The Duke was Queen Charlotte's older brother, Adolphus Frederick IV, Duke of Mecklenburg-Strelitz (1738-94).

There are 137 Chelsea pieces in the Royal Collection UK with five replacement pieces from the Königliche Porzellan-Manufactur, Berlin.

The dinner and dessert service, known as the Mecklenberg Service, was commissioned by King George III and Queen Charlotte, by whom it was presented to her brother, Adolphus Frederick IV, Duke of Mecklenberg-Strelitz in 1764. Other pieces from this famous service belonged to legendarty art dealer Sir Joseph Duveen and James Oakes by whom it was presented to HM Queen Elizabeth, 1947 for her Silver Wedding anniversary.

Terms and Conditions of Sale

The terms and conditions of sale listed here contain the policies of Artvisory Pty Ltd. They are the terms on which Artvisory Pty Ltd and the Seller contract with the Buyer. They may be amended by printed Saleroom Notices or oral announcements made before and during the sale. By bidding at auction you agree to be bound by these terms.

1. Background to the Terms used in these Conditions

The conditions that are listed below contain terms that are used regularly and may need explanation. They are as follows:

“the Buyer” means the person with the highest bid accepted by the Auctioneer

“the Lot” means any item depicted within the sale for auction and in particular the item or items described against any lot number in the catalogue.

“the Hammer price” means the amount of the highest bid accepted by the auctioneer in relation to a lot

“the Buyers Premium” means the charge payable by the Buyer to the auction house as a percentage of the hammer price.

“the Reserve” means the lowest amount at which Artvisory has agreed with the Seller that the lot can be sold.

“Forgery” means an item constituting an imitation originally conceived and executed as a whole, with a fraudulent intention to deceive as to authorship, origin, age, period, culture or source, where the correct description as to such matters is not reflected by the description in the catalogue. Accordingly no lot shall be capable of being a forgery by reason of any damage or restoration work of any kind (Including re-painting).

“the insured value” means the amount that Artvisory in its absolute discretion from time to time shall consider the value for which a lot should be covered for insurance (whether or not insurance is arranged by Artvisory.)

All values expressed in Artvisory Pty Ltd catalogues (in any format) are in Australian Dollars (AU$). All bids, “hammer price”, “reserves”, “Buyers Premium” and other expressions of value are understood by all parties to be in Australian Dollars (AU$) unless otherwise specified.

2. Artvisory Auctions as Agent

Except as otherwise stated Artvisory Pty Ltd acts as agent for the Seller.

The contract for the sale of the property is therefore made between the Seller and the Buyer.

3. Before the Sale

a) Examination of Property Prospective Buyers are strongly advised to examine in person any property in which they are interested before the Auction takes place. Neither Artvisory nor the Seller provides any guarantee in relation to the nature of the property apart from the Limited warranty in the paragraph below.

The property is otherwise sold “AS IS”

b) Catalogue and other Descriptions

All statements by Artvisory in the catalogue entry for the property or in the condition report, or made orally or in writing elsewhere, are statements of opinion and are not to be relied upon as statements of fact. Such statements do not constitute a representation, warranty or assumption of liability by Artvisory of any kind. References in the catalogue entry to the condition report to damage or restoration are for guidance only and should be evaluated by personal inspection by the bidder or a knowledgeable representative. The absence of such a reference does not imply that an item is free from defects or restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of any others. Estimates of the selling price should not be relied on as a statement that this is the price at which the item will sell or it’s value for any other purpose. Neither Artvisory nor The Seller is responsible for any errors or omissions in the catalogue or any supplemental material. Images are measured height by width (sight size). Illustrations are provided only as a guide and should not be relied upon as a true representation of colour or condition. Images are not shown at a standard scale. Mention is rarely made of frames (which may be provided as supplementary images on the website) which do not form part of the lot as described in the printed catalogue.

Foreign buyers should note that all transactions are in Australian dollars so there may be a small exchange rate risk. The costs associated with acquiring a good certificate will be carried by the purchaser. If the item turns out to be forged or otherwise incorrectly described, all reasonable costs will be borne by the vendor.

c) Buyers Responsibility

All property is sold “as is” without representation or warranty of any kind by Artvisory or the Seller. Buyers are responsible for satisfying themselves concerning the condition of the property and the matters referred to in the catalogue by requesting a condition report

No lot to be rejected if, subsequent to the sale, it has been immersed in liquid or treated by any other process unless the Auctioneer’s permission to subject the lot to such immersion or treatment has first been obtained in writing.

a) Refusal of Admission

Artvisory reserves the right at our complete discretion to refuse admission to the auction premises or participation in any auction and to reject any bid.

b) Registration before Bidding

Any prospective new buyer must complete and sign a registration form and provide photo-identification before bidding. Artvisory may request bank, trade or other financial references to substantiate this registration.

c) Bidding as a Principal

When making a bid, a bidder is accepting personal liability to pay the purchase price including the buyers premium and all applicable taxes, plus all other applicable charges, unless it has been explicitly agreed in writing with Artvisory before the commencement of the sale that the bidder is acting as agent on behalf of an identified third party acceptable to Artvisory and that Artvisory will only look to the principal for payment.

d) International Registrations

All International clients not known to Artvisory will be required to scan through an accredited form of photo identification and pay a deposit at our discretion in cleared funds into Artvisory’s account at least 24 hours before the commencement of the auction. Bids will not be accepted without this deposit. Artvisory also reserves the right to request any additional forms of identification prior to registering an overseas bid. This deposit can be made using a credit card, however the balance of any purchase price in excess of $5,000 can not be charged to this card without prior arrangement.

This deposit is redeemable against any auction purchase.

e) Absentee bids

Artvisory will use reasonable efforts to execute written bids delivered to us AT LEAST 24 Hours before the sale for the convenience of those clients who are unable to attend the auction in person. If we receive identical written bids on a particular lot, and at the auction these are the highest bids on that lot, then the lot will be sold to the person whose written bid was received and accepted first. Execution of written bids is a free service undertaken subject to other commitments at the time of the sale and we do not accept liability for failing to execute a written bid or for errors or omissions which may arise. It is the bidder’s responsibility to check with Artvisory after the auction if they were successful. Unlimited or “Buy” bids will not be accepted.

f) Telephone bids

Priority will be given to overseas and interstate bidders. Please refer to the catalogue for the Telephone Bids form. Arrangements for this service must be confirmed AT LEAST 24 HOURS PRIOR to the auction commencing. Artvisory accepts no responsibility whatsoever for any errors or failure to execute bids. In telephone bidding the buyer agrees to be bound by all terms and conditions listed here and accepts that Artvisory cannot be held responsible for any miscommunications in the process. The success of telephone bidding cannot be guaranteed due to circumstances that are unforeseen. Buyers should be aware of the risk and accept the consequences should contact be unsuccessful at the time of Auction. You must advise Artvisory of the lots in question and you will be assumed to be a buyer at the minimum price of 75% of estimate (ie. reserve) for all such lots. Artvisory will advise Telephone Bidders who have registered at least 24 hours before the auction of any relevant changes to descriptions, withdrawals or any other sale room notices.

G) Online Bidding

Artvisory offers an online bidding service via Invaluable.com. When bidding online the buyer agrees to be bound by all terms and conditions listed here by Artvisory and agrees to pay any fees charged in regard to any purchases made via Invaluable.com. Artvisory accepts no responsibility for any errors, failure to execute bids or any other miscommunications regarding this process. It is the online bidder’s responsibility to ensure the accuracy of the relevant information regarding bids, lot numbers and contact details.

H) Reserves

Unless otherwise indicated, all lots are offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum price below which the Lot will not be sold. The reserve will not exceed the low estimate printed in the catalogue. The auctioneer may open the bidding on any Lot below the reserve by placing a bid on behalf of the Seller. The auctioneer may continue to bid on behalf of seller up to the amount of the reserve, either by placing consecutive bids or by placing bids in response to other bidders.

If any dispute arises after the sale, then Artvisory’s sale record is conclusive.

J) Successful bid and passing of risk

Subject to the auctioneer’s discretion, the highest bidder accepted by the auctioneer will be the buyer and the striking of his hammer marks the acceptance of the highest bid and the conclusion of a contract for sale between the Seller and the Buyer. Risk and responsibility for the lot (including frames or glass where relevant) passes immediately to the Buyer.
