sale results: February 8th 2012 Paintings are not valued by the square inch and neither is furniture. if an example of the irrelevance of size to value was ever needed it could be found here in the sale of 8th February where the biggest and the smallest of lots nearly made the same price.

The first indications that ‘small is beautiful’ came early on in the sale when a coalport blue and white porcelain jug attributed to John rose and dated 1802 found a new home for £1,800 against an estimate of £1,500/2,000. consigned by a Buckinghamshire collector, the jug was printed with the arms of Shrewsbury corporation and also those of William Hill. The same collector also consigned several other Shropshire political ceramic pieces including a rare pearlware punch bowl with a verse and dedication to William Hill. This rare survival from a regency tavern realised £600 whilst a coalport cobalt and gilt 1835 Twelve Apostles jug inscribed for the Earl of Powys also won votes at £250.

A late victorian whale bone and marine ivory walking stick with rope knot and tortoiseshell handle was the unexpected and diminutive star of the works of art section. The stick was just over two and a half feet long and finely sculpted with a wrythen twist shank. When it was made, this walking stick would have been a luxury item and it appears that the market still considers it to be a desirable accoutrement to the well dressed man about town. Against stiff competition on the telephones, a southern collector paid ten times the estimate and won the walking stick with a bid of £2,400.

The price paid for the marine ivory walking stick is one more regularly seen in the furniture market. Here, seven out of the top ten prices of the day were for so called ‘brown furniture’, a market supposed to be in the doldrums if the pundits are to be believed.

The auctioneers offered and sold a large mid victorian mahogany break front housekeepers cupboard for the top price of this session with £2,600 tendered by a new York telephone bidder.

Almost as popular was a victorian mahogany pull out dining table with four additional leaves. This changed hands for £2,000 whilst another example of victorian furniture making prowess found a new home for £1,200. This was a mahogany pedestal desk by Sopwith and co of newcastle upon Tyne, a name more often associated with aeroplanes than desks, but this one ‘flew’ anyway. oak tends to sell with a rich and undisturbed patina and in this sale, a george i oak and pollard veneered lowboy with re-entrant front corners and well shaped cabriole legs found favour at £1,300 and a george iii oak chest on chest with a typical arrangement of graduated drawers took £850.

Perhaps the strangest lot in the sale was a Black Forest carved wood musical coat hook carved as a hare holding a rifle. The music was activated when a coat was dropped on to the hook with a choice of two songs. Estimated at £400/500 the quirky hare finally sold for £950.
