A Connoisseur's Fine and Important English Furniture Collection: The Property of a Gentleman from Virginia It is with great pleasure that Freeman's is able to present for sale the following forty lots of furniture which represent some of the high points of 18th century English cabinet making. The consignor, a gentleman of influence and importance, is a respected leader in his field of Academic Economics and Engineering, and has spent the last 30 years traveling the world designing and building important structures. During this time he has conscientiously researched and sought out the finest examples of English furniture he could uncover, taking great interest in learning the specific characteristics of the major designers of the 18th century, in particular works based on the designs of Thomas Chippendale. The collection, which focuses primarily on the great rococo period spanning the middle of the century and its love affair with mahogany, incorporates pieces produced during the reigns of George II and early George III. The collection in its entirety also includes representative pieces from William & Mary through the late Georgian periods and is a concise and well thought out exploration of the arc of design through the 18th century. The consignor, now retired, has taken great satisfaction in the acquisition and stewardship of his collection.

note: The present lot is nearly identical to a design for a ‘French Commode Table’ appearing in Thomas Chippendale’s 1754 ‘Gentleman and Cabinet-Maker’s Director’, pl. XLIII. Its robust bombe form and exaggerated scrolled feet borrow heavily from popular French rococo design. Chippendale provided several options for the execution of the overall design, and the present commode incorporates some elements from other designs in the Chippendale canon, most notably the addition of the wide foliate carved frieze below the gadrooned

edge of the top. This element is illustrated, on a much smaller scale, on a design for a tea chest (pl. CXXIX). The present commode also differs from the Chippendale design the replacement of a single long top drawer for a pair of short drawers and a simplified straight apron rather than the more pronounced arched and carved apron present in the Chippendale design. Firms like Wright and Elwick of Wakefield were known to execute fairly faithful pieces based on Chippendale’s designs, with some modest adjustments, where most other

cabinet makers would only borrow certain elements. For related commodes, see the Raynham commodes, one in the collection of the Philadelephia Museum of Art, (72-50-10), the other French & Company, sold Christie’s, New York, November 24, 1998, lot 60; and a commode attributed to Wright and Elwick, sold Christie’s, New York, October 17, 2008, lot 100.

Most notable was an exceptional state bed commissioned in 1759 by Lord Dumfries for Dumfries House which had fluted palm leaf wrapped corner posts with lotus leaf capitals (See Christie’s, London, July 12, 2007, lot 145). The use of Egyptian style motifs found wider acceptance later in the 18th and early 19th centuries, with Thomas Chippendale the younger contributing designs with a clearly Egyptian slant, most famously for pieces provided to Stourhead in Wiltshire. The present piece may originally have been designed to hold a marble slab top, now absent, and fitted as a cooler or jardiniere in the 19th century. H: 26 W: 32 D: 21 in. $10,000-15,000

note: This elaborately carved side table is related stylistically to a number of side or pier tables with Bacchic motifs dating to the mid 18th century. It is unclear who originated this style of table, which most likely was meant to furnish a dining room, although William Linnell is recorded supplying a mahogany card table with a solid plain frieze and a fatcheeked Bacchic mask and grape vine swags to Richard Hoare for Barn Elms in 1740 (now in the

possession of The National Trust, Stourhead). The architect John Vardy designed a much more substantial Bacchic side table for the dining room at Spencer House in 1758 that bears more similarities in the carving of the mask to the present table, but the supports are fully carved seated winged lions rather than cabriole legs. For a more closely related table see Sotheby’s, New York, October 21, 2005, lot 14. H: 33, W: 58, D: 31 1/2 in. $30,000-50,000

The William Frazier Collection: Part 2

Freeman’s is pleased to offer the second part of the William R. Frazier collection of European porcelain and bronzes as a follow-up to the well-received first part sold in May of 2009. William ‘Bill’ R. Frazier, Jr. (1931-2008) was born in Philadelphia and grew up in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania. He earned his undergraduate degree from Bucknell University and then went on to study Law, earning his degree at Cornell University. Over the next fifty years Mr. Frazier held senior executive positions with a succession of small securities brokerage firms, developing a philosophy that in a more personal environment he could control the quality of securities bought and sold, and manage his clients’ investments better. Mr. Frazier’s love of art and sculpture was fostered from an early age. He took great pleasure searching for and acquiring pieces for his ever-expanding collection and was a well-known to dealers in Philadelphia, New York, and New Jersey. He enjoyed traveling to Europe and was particularly taken with Germany and Italy, making purchases there which he would have shipped back to his home in Lafayette Hill, Pennsylvania. It was his wish that Fox Chase Cancer Center be the primary recipient of the proceeds from the sale of his estate. While never treated there, he greatly admired the excellent care provided to the father of his close friend, Ms. Diane Pieritz.

Therefore, all property is sold “ASIS”. Freeman’s is acting solely as an auction broker, and unless otherwise stated, does not own the Property offered for sale and has made no independent investigation of the Property. Freeman’s makes no warranty of title, merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, or any other warranty or representation regarding the description, genuineness, attribution, provenance or condition to the Property of any kind or nature with respect to the Property. 4 Freeman’s in its sole and exclusive discretion, reserves the right to withdraw any property, at any time, before the fall of the hammer. 5 Unless otherwise announced by the auctioneer at the time of sale, all bids are per lot as numbered in the printed catalogue. Freeman’s reserves the right to determine any and all matters regarding the order, precedence or appropriate increment of bids or the constitution of lots. 6 The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer shall be the buyer. The auctioneer has the right to reject any bid, to advance the bidding at his absolute discretion and in the event of any dispute between bidders, the auctioneer shall have the sole and final discretion either to determine the successful bidder or to re- offer and resell the article in dispute. If any dispute arises after sale, the Freeman’s sale record shall be conclusive in all respects. 7 If the auctioneer determines that any opening or later bid or any advance bid is not commensurate with the value of the Property offered, he may reject the same and withdraw the Property from sale.

8 Upon the fall of the hammer, title to any offered lot or article will immediately pass to the highest bidder as determined in the exclusive discretion of the auctioneer, subject to compliance by the buyer with these Conditions of Sale. Buyer thereupon assumes full risk and responsibility of the property sold, agrees to sign any requested confirmation of purchase, and agrees to pay the full price, plus Buyer’s Premium, therefore or such part, upon such terms as Freeman’s may require. 9 No lot may be removed from Freeman’s premises until the buyer has paid in full the purchase price therefor including Buyer’s Premium or has satisfied such terms that Freeman’s, in its sole discretion, shall require. Subject to the foregoing, all Property shall be paid for and removed by the buyer at his/her expense within ten (10) days of sale and, if not so removed, may be sold by Freeman’s, or sent by Freeman’s to a public warehouse, at the sole risk and charge of the buyer(s), and Freeman’s may prohibit the buyer from participating, directly or indirectly, as a bidder or buyer in any future sale or sales. In addition to other remedies available to Freeman’s by law, Freeman’s reserves the right to impose a late charge of 1.5% per month of the total purchase price on any balance remaining ten (10) days after the day of sale.

Payment is a precondition to removal. Payment shall be by cash, certified check or similar bank draft, or any other method approved by Freeman’s. Checks will not be deemed to constitute payment until cleared. Any exceptions must be made upon Freeman’s written approval of credit prior to sale. In addition, a defaulting buyer will be deemed to have granted and assigned to Freeman’s, a continuing security interest of first priority in any property or money of, or owing to such buyer in Freeman’s possession, and Freeman’s may retain and apply such property or money as collateral security for the obligations due to due to Freeman’s. Freeman’s shall have all of the rights accorded a secured party under the Pennsylvania Uniform Commercial Code. 10 Unless the sale is advertised and announced as “without reserve”, each lot is offered subject to a reserve and Freeman’s may implement such reserves by bidding through its representatives on behalf of the Consignors. In certain instances, the Consignor may pay less than the standard commission rate where Freeman’s or its representative is a successful bidder on behalf of the Consignor. Where the Consignor is indebted to Freeman’s, Freeman’s may have an interest in the offered lots and the proceeds therefrom, other than the broker’s Commissions, and all sales are subject to any such interest. 11 No “buy” bids shall be accepted at any time for any purpose. 12 Any pre-sale bids must be submitted in writing to Freeman’s prior to commencement of the offer of the first lot of any sale.
