Allan Gibson Hughes - Lots 110-142 Allan Gibson Hughes (1889-1938), was married to Kathleen Louisa Paget on the 17th April 1928, and together they resided at Chalfont, The Mount in Shrewsbury. Hughes trained as a solicitor, qualifying in 1912. During his career, he held the position of Registrar of Shrewsbury and Whitchurch County Courts, as well as that of District Registrar of the High Court, and Clerk to the Magistrates. He also gained the rank of Captain, serving in the King’s Shropshire Light Infantry. During his life, Hughes was a regular client of Sparks and Bluett’s, collecting across a wide range of areas spanning blue and white and polychrome porcelains from the Ming and Qing periods, snuff bottles, jade carvings and other works of art. Following his sudden death at the age of forty-nine, a posthumous sale was held at Sotheby’s of about seventy lots from his collection. The lots offered here are some of the remaining items from that collection. Cf.

Henry Tozer Henry Tozer was an avid enthusiast on the subject of Asian Art. His collection included Tang pottery, early Chinese bronzes, later porcelains, jade carvings and Japanese prints. He was a regular client of Bluett’s between 1942-58, and also purchased items from other dealers and at auction. The present jade water buffalo, lot 329, was previously in Henry Tozer’s collection. It was purchased from Spink & Son for £1,600 on the 23rd August 1960, following his death. That same year another larger example, known as ‘the Atterbury buffalo’, was sold at Sotheby’s on the 26th July for £6,000.

Valuations are a core part of our business and are usually carried out by a senior specialist or director. Accuracy, speed and above all confidentiality are paramount. INSURANCE VAlUAtIONS written valuations for insurance can vary from a single item to a large estate. Before starting we discuss the various options available so that the valuation is specifically tailored to individual client’s needs.

we also carry out valuations for Family division, Capital Gains tax, and Private treaty Sales.

For valuations of an entire house contents an itemised bound valuation is produced and can be accompanied by photographs when required. In addition to providing an inventory, written valuations can prevent painful arguments with a loss adjuster in the event of a claim.

拍賣規則

競買人須知 1.

簡介：本規則適用於本公司的買家，特別是對於新加入拍賣的競買人。所有拍賣品的資訊和估價都可以在相關拍賣圖錄中翻閱。如果您有任何疑問，本公司的工作人員將非常樂意為您服務。本中文條款如有任何詮釋上的問題，一概以英語版本爲準。

仲介：作為拍賣行，本公司通常以代理買方的身份簽署合同。爲了保護客戶隱私權，本公司不會公開競買人的資訊。

估價：估價是爲了提供競買人一個大概的價格浮動範圍。所有提供的拍賣品均設有賣家所定的保密的最低價，拍品不會以低於此價出售。圖錄上較低的估價價格即可能是該拍賣品的底價。估價不包括競買人支付的傭金和VAt增值稅。估價會在拍賣之前提供給競買人。

買入價格：競買人需要付成交價和傭金（每件拍品的成交價低於£500,000 取22%，超過 £500,000 上部份取12%）+ VAt增值稅 VAt增值稅：買家須以有關法律所規定的稅率及時間繳付增值稅。增值稅會在成交價和傭金之上收取。帶有星號（*）的拍品是從歐盟國家進口的，將徵收20%進口VAt增值稅。帶有雙星符號（**）的拍品是從歐盟以外的國家進口的，當下的VAt增值稅為5%。如果沒有以上敘述的兩種符號，該拍品就不需要徵收VAt增值稅。威立士拍賣行：本公司是賣家的仲介，所有拍品的資訊均源自於賣家，同時也會檢查拍品的情況。本公司在關於拍品的目錄、品相報告和另外口頭與書面的所有陳述，均只屬於意見的表述，而不應依據為事實的陳述。目錄和品相報告中所提及的有關瑕疵和未經修復的敘述只作為對該拍品的參考，不應被依據為拍品的真實狀況。所以競買人在拍賣前仔細檢查拍品情況是一個明智的選擇。但如果發現拍品存在‘ 蓄意偽造’的情況，在三個星期內可能可以被退還。（蓄意偽造的詳細解釋可以在本公司的拍賣條款裏查閱）電器拍品：所有電器拍品都以古董的形式進行拍賣，如果是用於日常使用請在拍賣之前與專業電器公司確認其安全性。出口拍品：買家如果想要出口競拍所得物品需要查明：a）是否需要出口許可證。b)要攜帶入境的國家是否對該類拍品有禁令。比如說，可能會禁止攜帶象牙。如有需要請詢問本公司前臺服務。但上述的兩種情況都不作為取消交易和推遲付款的原因。

競投：競買人需要在拍賣前進行註冊，登記時需要提供姓名，位址。新客戶需要向本公司提供身份證明。如需要電話競投服務，請儘早與本公司進行登記。

10. 競投委託：該項服務是以書面的形式委託威立士在不超過其指定金額下競投拍賣品。工作人員將參考底價，盡力以最低價進行競投，如果威立士收到兩個或以上相同價格的書面競投，則以最先與本公司簽訂委託競投協定者為成功競投者。 11. 付款方式：按照規定，成交拍品需要付清所有遺留款項以後才能取貨。關於付款方式請提前與本公司前臺聯系。 12. 取貨和存儲：請查閱本公司拍賣條款裏關於取貨和儲存的有關信息。所有推遲提取的拍品都會徵收相應的存儲費用。賣家委託條件 1.

解釋：下文中用到‘您’代表賣家或仲介機構，同樣‘我們’代表拍賣行。

傭金：拍品成交價在£999 內收取15%的傭金 +VAt增值稅，超過£1,000 拍品需要徵收10% 的傭金+VAt。

運輸費：所有拍品務必要在截止日期前送達我們拍賣行，且所有費用將由您來承擔。我們可以在運送過程中幫助您但是本公司不承擔運輸中發生任何狀況的責任。

丟失和損傷保險：我們沒有為客戶準備FSA的保險，但本公司用拍品的最低估價作為保護承擔責任賠償。我們會收取成交價的1.5%作為責任賠償的保險費用，如果您的拍品沒有成交那麼我們會以估價的中間值為標準收取費用。如果您不需要這項服務，那麼您將承擔丟失和損傷的風險，直到買家取走該拍品。

插圖：插圖的費用由您來承擔。若我們覺得拍品需要插圖會尋求您的允許，我們會事先通知您。但所有圖像和文字說明的版權都屬本公司所有。

底價和我們的判斷：在拍賣會開始之前我們會和您關於拍品的預訂價達成共識。

我們可以賣出低於拍品預訂價，但我們會支付您該拍品的保留價。但如果您給予本公司‘裁決’的權利，我們會同意以低於預訂價10%的價格出售。

拍賣條例

保留價：（a）

敬請您務必在拍賣前提供給我們您需要的保留價。保留價必須是我們認為合理的成交價格，本公司有權利下降不合理的高保留價。

（b）

保留價確定之後不能被改動。

（c）

保留價被確定以後，您不能自己進行競投。

電器拍品：這些拍品需要詳細的安全證明和防火安全證明。若發現拍品有安全隱患，該拍品將不被進行競投，我們有權要求您取走該拍品。

室內裝飾品：室內裝飾品如果發現有防火安全隱患，根據Provisions of the torts (Interference with Goods) Act 1997, Schedule 1 條例，我們有權要求您取走該拍品。

10. 拍品描述：請告知我們正確的拍品資訊，包括拍品來源等等。對於拍品的描述的正確性有嚴格的責任賠償，且在很多情況下您將承擔該責任。如果您沒有反對我們對您的拍品描述，我們將假定您同意您已認可。若競買人發現拍品描述和實際拍品不符我們將退還買家所付金額。我們必須引提醒您，即使您確實不知道拍品描述和實際不相符也必須遵循該條例。 11. 未成交的物品：如果拍品沒有成交，可以在您的允許下在下一次拍賣中再次進行競投。如果我們認為該拍品無法賣出，請您務必儘快從本公司提貨，因為我們有權向您徵收倉庫儲存費。 12. 撤拍和買入的物品：撤拍或自行買入的拍品若已列入圖錄或已經開始印刷，則應支付保留價或者圖錄中最低估價的10%的傭金加上VAt增值稅。 13. 拍賣條例：您所有同意的物品將根據拍賣條例進行出售，您或者仲介有權出售該物品。如違反該條例您將承擔我們、買家和第三方的所有損失和賠償。

INFORMATION FOR BUYERS 1.

Introduction. the following informative notes are intended to assist Buyers, particularly those inexperienced or new to our salerooms. All sales are conducted on our printed Conditions of Sale which are readily available for inspection and normally accompany catalogues. Our staff will be happy to help you if there is anything you do not fully understand.

Agency. As auctioneers we usually contract as agents for the seller whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is not normally disclosed. Accordingly if you buy your primary contract is with the seller.

Estimates. Estimates are designed to help buyers gauge what sort of sum might be involved for the purchase of a particular lot. the lower estimate may represent the reserve price and certainly will not be below it. Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT (where chargeable). Estimates are prepared some time before the sale and may be altered by announcement before the sale. they are in no sense definitive.

The purchase price. the Buyer shall pay the hammer price together with a premium thereon of 22% on the first £500,000 and 12% thereafter + VAt at the appropriate rate.

VAT. (†) indicates that VAt at the current standard rate is payable by the purchaser on the hammer price as well as being an element in the buyer’s premium. this imposition of VAt is likely to be because the seller is registered for VAt within the European Union and is not operating the dealers Margin Scheme or because VAt is due at 20% on importation into the UK. The symbol (Ω) indicates that the lot has been imported from outside the European Union and the present position is that these lots are liable to a reduced rate of VAT (5%) on the gross lot price (i.e. both the hammer price and the buyer’s premium). lots which appear without either of the above symbols indicate that no VAt is payable on the hammer price. this is because such lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme and it should be noted that the VAt included within the Premium is not recoverable as input tax.

we are, primarily, agents for the seller. we are dependent on information provided by the seller and whilst we may inspect lots and act reasonably in taking a general view about them we are normally unable to carry out a detailed or any examination of lots in order to ascertain their condition in the way in which it would be wise for a buyer to do. Intending buyers have ample opportunity for inspection of goods and, therefore, accept responsibility for inspecting and investigating lots in which they may be interested. Please note carefully the exclusion of liability for the condition of lots contained in the Conditions of Sale. Neither the seller nor we, as the auctioneers, accept any responsibility for their condition. In particular, mechanical objects of any age are not guaranteed to be in working order. However, in so far as we have examined the goods and make a representation about their condition, we shall be liable for any defect which that examination ought to have revealed to the auctioneer but which would not have been revealed to the buyer had the buyer examined the goods. Additionally, in specified circumstances lots misdescribed because they are ‘deliberate forgeries’ may be returned and repayment made. There is a 3 week time limit. (The expression ‘deliberate forgery’ is defined in our Conditions of Sale).

Electrical goods. these are sold as ‘antiques’ only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations by a qualified electrician first.

Export of goods. Buyers intending to export goods should ascertain (a) whether an export licence is required for the goods to leave the U.K. and (b) whether there is any specific prohibition on importing the goods in question into the destination country because, e.g. they may contain prohibited materials such as ivory. Charges may be applicable for export licences. Ask us if you need help. the denial of any permit or licence shall not justify cancellation or rescission of the sale contract or any delay in payment.

Bidding. Bidders will be required to register before the sale commences and lots will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form. Some form of identification will be required if you are unknown to us. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for telephone bidding.

10. Commission bidding. Commission bids may be left with the auctioneers indicating the maximum amount to be bid excluding buyers’ premium. they will be executed as cheaply as possible having regard to the reserve (if any) and competing bids. If two buyers submit identical commission bids the auctioneers may prefer the first bid

11. Methods of Payment. As a general rule any cheques tendered will need to be cleared before removal of the goods is permitted. Please discuss with our Office in advance of the sale if other methods of payment are envisaged (except cash). 12. Collection and storage. Please note what the Conditions of Sale state about collection and storage. It is important that goods are paid for and collected promptly. Any delay may involve the buyer in paying storage charges. TERMS OF CONSIGNMENT FOR SELLERS 1.

Interpretation. In these terms the words ‘you’, ‘yours’, etc. refer to the Seller and if the consignment of goods to us is made by an agent we assume that the Seller has authorised the consignment and that the consignor has the Seller’s authority to contract. Similarly the words ‘we’, ‘us’, etc. refer to the Auctioneers.

Commission is charged to sellers at the following rates: 15% + VAT on each lot sold for up to £999, 10% + VAT on each lot realising £1,000 and above.

Removal costs. Items for sale must be consigned to the sale room by any stated deadline and at your expense. we may be able to assist you with this process but any liability incurred to a carrier for haulage charges is solely your responsibility.

Loss and damage waiver. we are not regulated by the FSA for the provision of insurance to clients. However, we for our own protection assume liability for property consigned to us at lower pre-sale estimate. to justify accepting liability, we make a charge of 1.5% of the hammer price plus VAt or, if unsold, our mid estimate of the hammer price. If the owner of goods consigned instructs us in writing not to take such action, they then remain at owner’s risk unless and until the property in them passes to the Buyer or they are collected by or on behalf of the owner, and clause 4 is inapplicable.

Illustrations. the cost of any illustrations is borne by you. If we consider that the lot should be illustrated your permission will usually be asked first. The copyright in respect of such illustrations shall be the property of us, the auctioneers, as is the text of the catalogue.

Minimum bids and our discretion. Goods may be offered subject to a reserve agreed between us before the sale in accordance with clause 7.

we may sell lots below the reserve provided we account to you for the same sale proceeds as you would have received had the reserve been the hammer price. If you specifically give us ‘discretion’ we may accept a bid of up to 10% below the formal reserve.

Reserves. (a) You are entitled to place prior to the auction a reserve on any lot consigned, being the minimum hammer price at which that lot may be sold. Reserves must be reasonable and we may decline to offer goods which in our opinion would be subject to an unreasonably high reserve (in which case goods carry the storage and insurance charges stipulated in these Terms of Consignment). (b) A reserve once set cannot be changed except with our consent. (c) where a reserve has been placed only we may bid on your behalf and only up to the reserve (if any) and you may in no circumstances bid personally. 8.

Electrical items. these are subject to detailed statutory safety controls. where such items are accepted for sale you accept responsibility for the cost of testing by external contractors. Goods not certified as safe by an electrician (unless antiques) will not be accepted for sale. They must be removed at your expense on your being notified. We reserve the right to dispose of unsafe goods as refuse, at your expense.

Soft furnishings. the sale of soft furnishings is strictly regulated by statute law in the interests of fire safety. Goods found to infringe safety regulations will not be offered and must be removed at your expense. we reserve the right to dispose of unsafe goods as refuse, at your expense. the rights of disposal referred to in clause 8 and 9 are subject to the provisions of The Torts (Interference with Goods) Act 1977, Schedule 1, a copy of which is available for inspection on request.

10. Descriptions. Please assist us with accurate information as to the provenance etc. of goods where this is relevant. there is strict liability for the accuracy of descriptions under modern consumer legislation and in some circumstances responsibility lies with sellers if inaccuracies occur. we will assume that you have approved the catalogue description of your lots unless informed to the contrary.

where we are obliged to return the price to the buyer when the lot is a deliberate forgery under Condition 15 of the Conditions of Sale and we have accounted to you for the proceeds of sale you agree to reimburse us the sale proceeds. the liability to reimburse the sale proceeds shall not arise where you are acting reasonably and honestly and are unaware of the forgery but we are or ought to have been aware of it.

(f)

11. Unsold and withdrawn items. If an item is unsold it may with your consent be re-offered at a future sale. Where in our opinion an item is unsaleable you must collect such items from the saleroom promptly on being so informed. Otherwise, storage charges may be incurred. we reserve the right to charge for storage in these circumstances at a reasonable daily rate.

12. Withdrawn and bought in items. these are liable to incur a charge of up to 10% plus VAt of the reserve or low estimate on being bought in or withdrawn after being catalogued. 13. Conditions of Sale. You agree that all goods will be sold on our Conditions of Sale. In particular you undertake that you have the right to sell the goods either as owner or agent for the owner. You undertake to compensate us and any buyer or third party for all losses liabilities and expenses incurred in respect of and as a result of any breach of this undertaking.

‘sale proceeds’ means the net amount due to the seller, being the hammer price of the lot sold less commission at the stated rate, Value Added tax chargeable and any other amounts due to us by the seller in whatever capacity and however arising. (g) ‘‘You’, ‘Your’, etc. refer to the buyer as identified in Condition 2. (h) the singular includes the plural and vice versa as appropriate.

(b) You authorise us in our discretion to negotiate a sale by private treaty not later than the close of business on the day of the sale in the case of lots unsold at auction, in which case the same charges will be payable as if such lots had been sold at auction and so far as appropriate these terms apply. 15. Warehousing. we disclaim all liability for goods delivered to our saleroom without sufficient sale instructions and reserve the right to make minimum warehousing charge of £2 per lot per day. Unsold lots are subject to the same charges if you do not remove them within a reasonable time of notification. If not removed within three weeks we reserve the right to sell them and defray charges from any net proceeds of sale or at your expense to consign them to the local authority for disposal. 16. Settlement. Subject to our normal trading conditions, payment will be made by BACS or cheque four weeks after the sale unless the buyer has not paid for the goods. In this case no settlement will then be made but we will take your instructions in the light of our Conditions of Sale. You authorise any sums owed by you to us on other transactions to be deducted from the sale proceeds. You must note the liability to reimburse the proceeds of sale to us as under the circumstances provided for in Condition 10 above. You should therefore bear this potential liability in mind before parting with the proceeds of sale until the expiry of 28 days from the date of sale.

DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITION (a) whilst we seek to describe lots accurately, it may be impractical for us to carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot. Prospective buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description applied to a lot. Prospective buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. we undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably held and accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently.

FORGERIES Notwithstanding the preceding Condition, any lot which proves to be a deliberate forgery (as defined) may be returned to us by you within 21 days of the auction provided it is in the same condition as when bought, and is accompanied by particulars identifying it from the relevant catalogue description and a written statement of defects. If we are satisfied from the evidence presented that the lot is a deliberate forgery we shall refund the money paid by you for the lot including any buyer’s premium provided that (1) if the catalogue description reflected the accepted view of scholars and experts as at the date of sale or (2) you personally are not able to transfer a good and marketable title to us, you shall have no rights under this condition. the right of return provided by this Condition is additional to any right or remedy provided by law or by these Conditions of Sale. GENERAL 16. we shall have the right at our discretion, to refuse admission to our premises or attendance at our auctions by any person. 17. (a) Any right to compensation for losses liabilities and expenses incurred in respect of and as a result of any breach of these Conditions and any exclusions provided by them shall be available to the seller and/or the auctioneer as appropriate. (b) Such rights and exclusions shall extend to and be deemed to be for the benefit of employees and agents of the seller and/or the auctioneer who may themselves enforce them.

(b) (c) (d) (e) (f) (g) (h) (i) (j) (k)
