The Auctioneers, Gilding's Ltd., have absolute discretion to divide any lot, to combine any two or more lots or to withdraw any lot from the sale, to refuse bids, regulate bidding or to cancel the sale without in any case giving any reason, or without any previous notice. 3. Any instructions given to the Auctioneers over the telephone, by fax or through the internet by vendors or prospective buyers are accepted at the vendors or prospective buyers risk and must, in any event, be confirmed in writing. 4.

All lots are sold as shown, with all faults, imperfections and errors of description. However, if within seven days of the sale of any lot, the buyer gives notice in writing to the auctioneers that the lot sold is a “forgery” *, and if within fourteen days of giving such notice the buyer returns the lot in the same condition as it was at the time of the sale to the premises of the auctioneers and there is shown, to the satisfaction of the auctioneers, that having regard to the catalogue description the lot sold is a “forgery”, the auctioneers are authorised to, and will, rescind the sale and refund the purchase price received by them. This right is limited to the buyer and may not be assigned. 9. Each lot, at the fall of the hammer, will be at the risk of the purchaser and will be taken away at the purchasers risk and expense on the day of the sale unless prior arrangements have been made with the auctioneers (see clause 12). In the event of any liability upon the auctioneers in respect of any loss, this shall be restricted to a maximum of the price paid by the buyer. 10. The title of the goods shall not pass to the buyer until the purchase price has been paid in full and including the premium at the stated rate 11. Each purchaser will be required to register in order to bid at the auction and if successful may be required to pay immediately a percentage of the purchase price.

A contingency storage charge of £2 per lot per week for small lots and £10 per lot per week for furniture lots will come into effect 14 days after the date of sale. If after the expiry of fourteen days from the date of the sale, the purchaser is still in default, the Auctioneers may resell the lot/s, either by public auction or private contract. The purchaser, making such default, shall be liable for any deficiency arising from such resale and for resulting expenses. Any surplus arising shall belong to the auctioneer. 14.

The export of any lot from the United Kingdom, or import into another country, may be subject to licences being granted. It is the buyer's responsibility to obtain any relevant import or export licence/s. The denial of any such licence or delay in obtaining a licence shall not justify the rescission or cancellation of the sale. 18. Droit de Suite - the Artist's Resale Right Droit de Suite is a royalty payable to a qualifying artist or the artist's heirs each time a work is re-sold during the artist's lifetime and for a period up to 70 years following the artist's death. Following the introduction of the Artist's Resale Right Regulations Gilding’s has decided an amount equal to the resale royalty will be collected from the buyer of a work of art covered by these Regulations. This will then be passed to the relevant collecting agency. Resale Royalty applies where the hammer prices is €1000 or more. Resale Royalty does not apply when the hammer price is less than €1,000. The total amount of Resale Royalty on any one sale or lot shall not exceed €12,500. The Resale Royalty amount is calculated as follows: Royalty for the portion of the Hammer Price From 0 to €50,000 euro 4% From €50,000.01 to €200,000 euro 3% From €200,000.01 to €350,000 euro 1% From €350,000.01 to €500,000 euro 0.5% Exceeding €500,000 euro 0.25% Invoices will be issued in Pounds Sterling. For the purposes of calculating the Resale Royalty, the Pounds Sterling/Euro rate of exchange will be the European Central Bank reference rate on the date of the sale. Each time you bid on a lot covered by the ARR, you agree to pay an amount equal to the resale royalty, if you are the successful bidder. This amount will be added to your invoice. Lots which may be affected by Droit de Suite – the Artists Resale Right will be identified by the symbol “AR” next to the lot number.
