This piece is pictured on the front cover of the accompanying promotional booklet.
Provenance: Private collection, United Kingdom.
(†) Artist's Resale Right/Droit De Suite applies. Refer to our Terms and Conditions of Business.
Catalogue Note: According to the literature accompanying this piece, 'Fred Rich is considered by many to be Britain's most dynamic and versatile art enameller, he has won innumerable art awards and his work is represented in all the major public collections in the UK as well as in many private collections worldwide. Most of his work is made for private commissions, with larger pieces taking many months of painstaking and arduous work, resulting in a very small output.'
According to Andrew & Styles (2015), Fred Rich explains, 'I start with the form, a vase for example. The enamelled design has to be scribed onto the surface before 22-carat gold wire is applied and soldered on. This "draws" the design on to the vase. However, each piece of gold wire has to be cut and bent to shape before being soldered on. This can mean that hundreds of small pieces of gold wire are used in one design. Once the design is in place, the metal is hand-carved in relief. This not only removes the fire-stain from the metal, but gives the enamel definition and vitality and the resulting play with light makes a huge difference to the pictorial effect - transparency gives the whole piece life…The application of the enamel is an extremely painstaking process. Several layers of enamel have to be applied, working in sections at a time and each layer has to be fired at extremely high temperatures...this whole process can mean that larger pieces are fired in the kiln up to 40 times! You cannot cut corners with enamel and I do get hyper-critical with my work - it's the only way I know to maintain a standard.'

When bidding, buyers acknowledge that they are fully satisfied as to the description and condition of the lot.

(b) If the initials of the forename(s) and the surname of the artist are given, this indicates that in the opinion of Kinghams the picture is a work of the period of the named artist and may be wholly or in part his work.
(c) If the surname of the artist is given, this indicates that in the opinion of Kinghams the picture is a work of the same school of the named artist, or by one of his followers, or in his style and of uncertain date.
(d) The term ‘Bears signature’ indicates that in the opinion of Kinghams this is not the signature of the artist.
(e) All other terms are self-explanatory.

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 Kinghams Auctioneers Ltd.
2. WARRANTY
The Seller warrants that possession in the lots can be transferred to the Buyer with good and marketable title, free from any third party right and encumbrances, claims or potential claims. The Seller has provided all information concerning the items ownership, condition and provenance, attribution, authenticity, import or export history and of any concerns expressed by third parties concerning the same.
3. COMMISSION
Commission is charged to sellers at a flat rate of 15% plus VAT on each lot. There is a lotting charge of £5 plus VAT per lot.
4. REMOVAL
COSTS
Items for sale must be consigned to the saleroom by and 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.
5. LOSS AND DAMAGE OF GOODS
a) Loss and Damage Warranty – Kinghams is not authorised by the FSA to provide insurance to its clients and does not do so. However, Kinghams for its own protection, assumes liability for property consigned to it at the lower pre-sale estimate until the hammer falls. To justify accepting liability, Kinghams makes a charge of 1.5% of the hammer price plus VAT. The liability assumed by Kinghams shall be limited to the lower pre-sale estimate or the hammer price if the lot is sold.
b) If the owner of the goods consigned instructs us in writing not to take such action, the goods then remain entirely at the owners 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 5(a) is inapplicable.
6. ILLUSTRATIONS
The cost of any illustrations is borne by you. If we consider that the lot should be illustrated your permission will 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.
7. MINIMUM BIDS AND OUR DISCRETION
Goods will normally be offered subject to a reserve agreed between us before the sale in accordance with clause 8. We may sell lots below the reserve provided if we can 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 a “discretion” we may accept a bid of up to 10% below the formal reserve.
Additional information can be found at www.kinghamsauctioneers.com 74
8. 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 unreasonably high reserves {in which case goods carry the storage (Condition 17) and loss damage warranty (Condition 5(a) charges as 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.
d) Reserves are not usually accepted for lots expected to realise below £50.
9. 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.
10. 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 clauses 9 and 10 are subject to the provisions of The Torts (Interference with Goods) Act 1977, Schedule 1, a copy of which is available for inspection upon request.
11. 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 4 of the Conditions of Sale and we have accounted to you for the proceeds of sale you agree to reimburse us the sale proceeds.
12. UNSOLD ITEMS
If an item is unsold it may at our discretion 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.
13. WITHDRAWN AND BOUGHT IN ITEMS
These are liable to incur charges on being bought in or withdrawn after being catalogued.
14. CONDITIONS OF SALE
You agree that all goods will be sold subject to 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.
15. AUTHORITY TO DEDUCT COMMISSION AND EXPENSES AND RETAIN PREMIUM AND INTEREST
You authorise us to deduct commission at the stated rate and all expenses incurred from your account from the hammer price and consent to our right to retain beneficially the premium paid by the buyer in accordance with our Conditions of Sale and any interest earned on the sale proceeds until the date of settlement. You authorise us at our discretion to negotiate a sale by private treaty not later than the close of business 48 hours after the day of 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.
17. STORAGE
We disclaim all liability for goods delivered to our saleroom without sufficient sale instructions and reserve the right to make storage charges.
18. SETTLEMENT
Subject to funds having cleared in our account we aim to pay you no later
than four weeks following the sale. If the buyer has not paid for the goods no settlement will 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. Please note the liability to reimburse the proceeds of sale to us as under the circumstances provided for in Condition 11 above and you should therefore bear this in mind before parting with the proceeds of sale.

A work of art by a living artist, or those who have died within the last 70 years, which costs more than the UK sterling equivalent of €1,000 will incur a royalty charge. We pass this payment onto the Design and Artists Copyright Society (DACS), and do not charge a handling fee. Buyers can calculate royalty charges on the DACS website.
Items marked with the † symbol in the catalogue will potentially incur royalty payments.
We use the euro to UK sterling exchange rate which applies on the day of the sale. It is the buyer’s responsibility to check the relevant exchange rate.
The actual qualifying threshold is calculated by the Artist’s Resale Right Service Hub based on the European Central Bank reference rate published at 2.15pm on the day of the sale, and can be found on the DACS website.
The royalty charge for pictures which achieve a hammer price of more than the UK sterling equivalent of €1,000, but less that the UK sterling equivalent of €50,000 is 4%. On works of art that achieve a hammer price of more than the UK sterling equivalent of €50,000 a sliding scale of royalty charges applies. For a complete list of the royalty charges and threshold levels please download more information from the DACS website.
The royalty charge is added to invoices, and must be paid before purchases are removed. VAT is not paid on royalty charges.
