MORPHETS Fine Art & Antique Auctioneers since 1895
Information For Buyers 1. INTRODUCTION
7. CONDITION REPORTS We may be able to assist buyers unable to view by providing a condition report, but these reports are based solely on our own opinion and are for guidance only and no responsibility is accepted for their accuracy. Intending buyers are strongly encouraged to view. (Please see our Conditions of Sale).
The following informative notes are intended to assist Buyers, particularly those inexperienced or new to our salerooms. All sales are conducted on our printed Conditions of Sale which are readily available for inspection and normally accompany catalogues. Our staff will be happy to help you if there is anything you do not fully understand.
8. ELECTRICAL GOODS Collectable items which are electrical are sold as ‘antiques’ only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations by a qualified electrician first.
2. AGENCY As auctioneers we usually contract as agents for the seller whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is not normally disclosed. Accordingly if you buy your primary contract is with the seller.
9. EXPORT OF GOODS Buyers intending to export goods should ascertain (a) whether an export licence is required and (b) whether there is any specific prohibition on importing goods of that character because, e.g. they may contain prohibited materials such as ivory.
3. ESTIMATES Estimates are designed to help buyers gauge what sort of sum might be involved for the purchase of a particular lot. The lower estimate may represent the reserve price and certainly will not be below it. Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT (where chargeable). Estimates are prepared some time before the sale and may be altered by announcement before the sale. They are in no sense definitive.
10. BIDDING Bidders are required to register before the sale commences and lots will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form. You will need a bidding card which is available free of charge, upon production of current identification that can confirm your name and address (eg driving licence, passport, utility bill, but please note that we will not accept bank debit or credit cards as identification).Otherwise, a refundable CASH deposit of £50 must be paid, your deposit will be set against your invoice if you are successful with your bid, or refunded to you once we have established that no bids have been allocated to your bidding number.
4. BUYER’S PREMIUM The Conditions of Sale oblige buyers to pay a buyer’s premium at 15% on the hammer price of each lot purchased. In addition, VAT is chargeable on this premium (see below). Please see note under live bidding on the following page. 5. VAT (*) indicates that there is a VAT element payable by the purchaser at the standard rate within the hammer price as well as being payable on the buyer’s premium. This imposition of VAT is likely to be because the seller is registered for VAT within the European Union and is not operating the Dealers Margin Scheme or because VAT is due on importation into the UK. Lots which appear without the above symbol indicate that no VAT is payable on the hammer price. This may be because such lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme and, if so, it should be noted that the VAT included within the Premium is not recoverable as input tax.
11. COMMISSION BIDDING Commission bids may be left with the auctioneers indicating the maximum amount to be bid excluding buyer’s premium. They will be executed as cheaply as possible having regard to the reserve (if any) and competing bids. If two buyers submit identical commission bids the auctioneers may prefer the first bid received. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for the leaving of commission bids by telephone, e-mail or fax. In order for Commission and Telephone Bids to be operated, we will require your credit/debit card details. Confirmation of any bids taken over the telephone must be made in writing (fax, email or post) by 9am on the day of the sale.
6. CONDITIONS OF LOTS Please note carefully the exclusion of liability for the condition of lots contained in the Conditions of Sale. Intending buyers have ample opportunity for inspection of goods and neither the seller nor we as the auctioneers accept any responsibility for their condition. In particular, mechanical objects of any age are not guaranteed to be in working order. However, in specified circumstances lots misdescribed because they are ‘deliberate forgeries’ may be returned and repayment made. There is a 3 week time limit. (The expression ‘deliberate forgery’ is defined in our Conditions of Sale). MORPHETS Fine Art & Antique Auctioneers since 1895

ARTISTS RESALE RIGHTS In accordance with Artists Resale Rights Regulations 2006, all lots marked ARR which sell for €1,000 or more are subject to a resale royalty charge ("Royalty").

NOTICE TO BUYERS OF GEMSTONES/JEWELS Many coloured gemstones have been subjected to a variety of treatments designed to enhance their appearance, for example heating is regularly used to improve colour or transparency in rubies and sapphires. Other treatments such as oiling, enhance the clarity of emeralds. Other coloured gemstones may have undergone permanent or semi-permanent treatments such as dyeing, irradiation, coating and impregnation, which may require further re-treatment in order to retain their appearance. The jewellery trade generally accepts these treatments. Prospective purchasers should assume all gemstones will have been treated unless statements are made to the contrary. Recent advancements in technology have led to some diamonds being treated in a variety of ways designed to enhance their appearance. These treatments can include fracture filling, laser drilling, irradiation and coating. Every effort is made to identify such treatments, however it is not possible for Morphets to guarantee that all lots containing diamonds are free of these enhancements.
MORE ABOUT MORPHETS Morphets offer a complete auction sales and valuation service. Call in to discuss your particular requirements with our valuers. Valuations can be prepared for Probate, Insurance, Family Division etc. for private clients, executors and trustees. Most valuations can be started within seven days.
All dimensions and estimated weights of gemstones have been determined without unsetting the stones and are therefore only approximate because of limitations imposed by the mount. Estimated weights are normally calculated by applying standard formulae to the measurements taken. 3

ROYAL INTEREST The following twelve lots were bequeathed by Canon John N Dalton to Sir and Lady Forbes-Watson and then to the vendor by descent. John Neale Dalton (1839-1931), originally from the Isle of Thanet, Kent, graduated from Clare College Cambridge with a degree in Theology. After rapid progression through Church he was appointed to Whippingham on the Isle of Wight where Queen Victoria became aware of him. In 1871 Dalton was appointed as tutor to Queen Victoria’s grandsons, Prince Albert Victor and Prince George, later to become George V. It was at Dalton’s suggestion, that the two Princes embarked on a three year world cruise on HMS Bacchante between 1879-1882, with Dalton as their guardian, chaplain and tutor. George V held Canon Dalton in such high regard that he appointed him as domestic chaplain for the Royal Family at Windsor where he remained until his death in 1931.

COLLECTORS’ ITEMS Lot 33 REJLANDER (OSCAR), AN ALBUM OF SEVENTY ALBUMEN PRINTS, CIRCA 1865-66 A rare and interesting folio of seventy portrait and figurative photographs by this pioneer, the albumen prints mounted on giltedged card leaves in a single volume with gilt and tooled black morocco bindings, the sitters including Rejlander himself, Mary Rejlander (nee Bull), Sir Henry Taylor, Hallam Tennyson (son of Lord Alfred Tennyson), John and Minnie Constable, the youngest of Lord Hawarden’s children, possibly including Elphinstone ‘Eppy’ Maud and other unidentified subjects, album 30cm x 25cm, prints varying in size from 12cm oval up to 21cm x 15cm, some with titles or annotations in pencil. See illustration. The complete album is re-created as a pageturner pdf book on www.morphets.co.uk Provenance: This album was part of the estate of Surgeon Commander Herbert Ackland Browning RN and thence by descent to the vendor. Commander Browning served throughout the First World War, never married and died at the family home in Dawlish in 1955. Herbert’s father, Captain George Browning RN, was a naval hydrographer and married Elizabeth (nee) Kendal, daughter of Dr Marsters Kendal of Kings Lynne, honorary surgeon to the
Prince of Wales, later King Edward VII, at Sandringham. It is possible that the album belonged to him and was thus lent to the Prince of Wales and others as annotations indicate. Footnote: Oscar Gustav Rejlander (1813-1875), known as the Father of Art Photography, was born in Sweden and studied art in Rome, settling in England in the 1840s. He lived in Lincoln and later Wolverhampton, working as an artist and portrait miniaturist. He took an active interest in photography, seeing its potential for assisting artists and in 1853 attended lessons in the London studio of Nicholas Henneman. This inspired him to develop his own techniques experimenting with portraiture although it is his pioneering work in photo-montage, combining several negatives to form one image, that brought him to wider renown. His best known work The Two Ways of Life comprised thirty-two negatives and took six weeks to produce. Following its exhibition in Manchester in 1857 a copy was ordered by Queen Victoria for Prince Albert. Rejlander became a member of the Royal Photographic Society, regularly lecturing and publishing on the subject and in 1862 he moved to London where he built a photographic studio designed to make the best use of natural light for his subjects. During his work he came into contact with Julia
15
Margaret Cameron, Charles Dodgson (aka Lewis Carroll), Lady Clementina (Maud) Hawarden and Charles Darwin. In the early 1870s he worked with Darwin on illustrations for his treatise on The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals. Although Rejlander sold volumes of his photography through book shops and art dealers it is unknown if the album in this lot was obtained thus by Captain Browning. One pencil annotation suggests it may have been bought directly from the photographer as it reads ‘Rejlander had refused to sell this copy (the only one obtained from the negative taken) at any price: but the offer of £2.2.0 for the Swedish poor was too much for his nerves and I obtained it DEO GRATIAS’. A further annotation inside the front cover reads ‘This album has the honour of being submitted in 1866 to HRH The Prince of Wales by Colonel Teesdale (3 weeks), in 1870 at the request of Cardinal Antorelli to HH Pope Pius IXth by Monsignor Pacca (1 week), into 1871 to Her Majesty by Lady Elgin (several weeks)’.

COLLECTORS’ ITEMS Lot 39 MARSH ARAB (IRAQ) WALL HANGING, hand worked in predominantly red and orange wools, measuring approximately 2.38 metres x 1.74 metres. See illustration Footnote: The Marsh Arab civilisation and culture was centred at the confluence of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers in the marshes of Southern Iraq. They lived in arched reed houses, often on floating islands of reed and were all but destroyed by Saddam Hussein when, after the first Gulf war in 1991, his government aggressively revived a programme to divert the flow of the two great rivers away from marshes in retribution for a failed Shia uprising (most of the Marsh Arabs were of that religious persuasion and their numbers have dwindled from about half a million in the 1950s to as few as 20,000 in Iraq). As a result of Saddam’s actions, the Marsh Arab culture has almost been wiped out and the woollen wall hanging, to which this example relates, has become a rare item. £250 - £350 Lot 40 A ROYAL SOUTH PACIFIC TAPA, a large example measuring 2.7 x 1.8m, all over painted with stencils in bold geometric patterns in shades of brown. Tapas may be found in many islands throughout the South Pacific and are worn by men and women as skirts during ceremonial occasions; used for wall-hangings, floor coverings and table cloths when dignitaries sit on the floor around the tapa. Made from the bark of mulberry trees it is dried in the sun before being soaked, following which it is beaten on a wooden anvil using wooden mallets; this thins the bark and extends the width, several strips are then beaten to form a single sheet. For important tapas several sheets are joined together using the same process. This example was presented to the vendor by the son of an important Fijian chief £80 - £120
