The Ship 245 x 100.5 cm This late 19th century English tapestry depicts a moored ship known as “The Ship.” It is one of the Holy Grail tapestry series originally crafted by Morris & Co. in 1890, illustrating the tale of King Arthur and Knights of the Round Table, and their search for the Holy Grail. This panel shows the vessel they used for their voyage to Sarras, the island where the sacred relic was brought according to the Arthurian legend. Interestingly, the tapestry has “1881” written on the reverse which, if considered as its production date, curiously suggests that the item predates the Holy Grail tapestries first commissioned in 1890. Two other inscriptions can be seen too—“RSSS” and “39941.” With signs of use.

Article III: Pre-Auction Viewing and Inspection a. CDM does not perform a full and complete due diligence audit on each Lot. Representations made by CDM about the Lots are based on information provided by the sellers. As such, CDM does not guarantee the accuracy of such information. CDM shall not be liable for any misrepresentation or wrong information provided by the sellers with respect to the Lots. Prospective buyers acknowledge these facts and accept their responsibility to carry out such investigations and inspections as may be necessary to satisfy themselves with respect to the Lots in which they may be interested in prior to the sale. b. The properties to be sold may be inspected by prospective buyers at pre-auction viewings. Prospective buyers are strongly encouraged to personally examine the Lots prior to the sale. c. In accepting bids for Lots, CDM assumes that prospective buyers have undertaken a full inspection of the Lots prior to bidding and that they have verified the condition of the Lots as well as the descriptions. d. CDM and the sellers do not provide any guarantee with respect to the Lots sold at auction. Said Lots are sold on an “as is” basis. All sales are final.
Article IV: Descriptions of Property a. Statements made by CDM in the catalogue or website, in condition reports, or made orally or in
page 2/7
writing elsewhere, are statements of opinion. Therefore, these statements cannot be construed or relied on as factual representations, implied or express warranties or assumptions of liability. CDM and the sellers shall not be liable in any way for errors or omissions in the catalogues or any supplemental material. Buyers have the duty to satisfy themselves about the condition of the Lots sold at auction and the matters referred to in the catalogue entries. b. References in the catalogue entry or the condition report to damage or restoration are for guidance only. These references should be evaluated by personal inspection by the bidder or a knowledgeable representative. c. The absence of any reference to the condition of a Lot does not imply that the Lot is in perfect condition or completely free from wear and tear, imperfections or the effects of aging. Similarly, a reference to particular defects does not imply the absence of others. d. CDM and the sellers do not make any express or implied warranty or representation of any kind or nature with respect to the merchantability, quality or fitness for certain purposes, the accuracy of the catalogue or other description of the physical condition, size, quality, rarity, importance, medium, material, genuineness, attribution, provenance, period, culture, source, origin, exhibitions, literature or historical significance of any Lot sold. e. In making express statements in its catalogue descriptions or condition reports, CDM shall exercise such reasonable care as is consistent with: (1) its role as auctioneer; (2) the information provided by the sellers; (3) scholarship and technical knowledge; and (4) expert opinions as of the date these expert opinions are made.
Article V: Estimates a. Each Lot in the catalogue is given a low starting bid. This estimate represents the range which, in the opinion of CDM, represents a fair and probable auction value. This estimate does not include the Buyer’s Premium referred to in Section 10 hereunder. b. Pre-sale estimates are intended only as a guide for prospective buyers and are subject to revision. The actual prices realized for items can also fall below or above the range of these estimates. Thus, an estimate of
www.casadememoria.com
auction .0008 2017
the selling price should not be relied on as a statement that this is the price at which the item will sell or its value for any other purpose.
Article VI: Admission to the Auction a. CDM has the right at their absolute discretion to refuse to allow prospective buyers admission to or participation in an auction. b. Prior to bidding, all bidders are required to complete and sign registration forms and provide a government issued identification card (e.g., a passport or driver’s license). c. Bidders present at the live auction shall express their interest to participate in the auction by providing CDM with their full credit card details and shall execute an undertaking allowing CDM to charge a ten percent (10%) penalty on the final bid on the aforementioned credit card in the event that the bidder is unable to pay the full purchase price in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 10. d. Upon completion of the above admission process, CDM shall issue bidding paddles to the bidders.
Article VII: Sale and Withdrawal from Sale a. Unless otherwise announced by the auctioneer, all bids are per Lot as numbered in the catalogue. b. CDM reserves the right to withdraw from any sale any of the Lots listed at any time prior to the commencement of bidding for such Lot and shall have no liability whatsoever for such withdrawal. c. Unless otherwise indicated, a Lot shall be offered subject to a minimum price (the “Reserve”). The Reserve shall not exceed the low pre-sale estimate at the time of the auction. As a general rule, the Reserve is agreed upon by CDM and the sellers. CDM has the right to set the Reserve in the absence of an agreement with the seller.
Article VIII: Bidding a. Bidders shall be personally liable for their bids unless they have secured CDM’s prior written consent to act as agents for identified third parties acceptable to CDM. Bidders who act as agents shall be jointly and severally liable with their principals. b. Absentee Bids - CDM shall use reasonable efforts to carry out written absentee bids delivered prior to the sale. If written bids for identical amounts are received for a particular Lot and these turn out to be the highest bids at the auction, the Lot will be sold to the person whose bid was received and accepted first. The execution of absentee bids is a free service that is undertaken subject to other commitments of CDM during the auction. CDM shall not be liable for failure to execute a written bid or for errors or omissions committed in connection with said bid. c. Live Online Bids- CDM shall use reasonable efforts to carry out live online bids that are placed or delivered in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the agreement between CDM and the third party provider of the online bidding platform. If live online bids for identical bids are received for a particular Lot and these turn out to be the highest bids at the auction, the Lot will be sold to the person whose bid was received and accepted first. The execution of online bids is a free service that is undertaken subject to other commitments of CDM during the auction. CDM shall not be liable for failure to execute an online bid or for errors or omissions committed in connection with said bid. d. Telephone Bids- CDM shall use reasonable efforts to contact prospective buyers who have made prior arrangements to place telephone bids in order for these buyers to participate in the auction. CDM shall not be liable for its failure to contact said bidders or for any errors or omissions made in connection with telephone bids since telephone bids are offered as a free service that is undertaken subject to the other commitments of CDM during the sale.
Article IX: Conduct of Auction a. The auctioneer has the discretion to commence and advance the bidding at the levels and increments which he considers appropriate. The auctioneer also has the right to divide or to combine any Lots. As
page 3/7
www.casadememoria.com
auction .0008 2017
a general rule, CDM will follow ten percent (10%) increments, subject to the condition that said increment may change from time to time or at any time during the auction if the auctioneer sees the need. b. To implement the Reserve, the auctioneer may open bidding on any Lot by placing a bid on behalf of the seller. The auctioneer will not specifically identify bids placed on behalf of the seller. The auctioneer may further bid on behalf of the seller, up to the amount of the Reserve, by placing successive or consecutive bids for a Lot or by placing bids in response to other bidders. Unless otherwise indicated in the catalogue or by an announcement at the auction, CDM acts as agent on behalf of the seller and does not permit the seller to bid on his or her own property. c. The auctioneer may refuse to acknowledge any bidder and to reject bids. If any dispute arises between two or more bidders or in case of error, the auctioneer may decide the same or may re-offer and resell a Lot. The auctioneer has the right to determine the successful bidder and take such other actions as he deems fit under the circumstances. If any dispute arises after the sale, CDM sales record shall be conclusive. d. The auctioneers bidding increments:
