A pupil of Bruce J. Talbert, Batley designed furniture for Collinson & Lock and James Shoolbred & Co. He also designed the interiors for Doulton’s terracotta house, which was exhibited at the Paris Exhibition in 1878 and for which he was to receive the Legion d’Honneur. In 1883 he wrote his ‘Series of Studies for Domestic Furniture Decoration Etc.’, and in 1908 founded the Guild of Decorators Syndicate Ltd. with the aim of forging close links with commercial furniture and textile manufacturers, in stark contrast to the Arts & Crafts ideals of the time. During the 1870s Batley was apprenticed by Arthur Silver, who in 1880 was to become founder of the Silver Studio. Here Batley has captured the fashionable and exotic Anglo-Japanese aesthetic in his use of linear design elements, fretwork panels and lacquered finish.

Literature: Halén, Widar ‘Christopher Dresser: A Pioneer of Modern Design’, London, 1993, p. 146 and p. 148, fig. 166 for an illustration of a similar silver teapot dated 1885. Whiteway, Michael ‘Christopher Dresser, Skira 2001, p. 162 and p. 171, fig. 206 Exhibition catalogue, ‘Truth, Beauty, Power: Dr. Christopher Dresser 18341904, New York’, Historical Design, 1998, p. 55 Lyons, Harry ‘Christopher Dresser: The People’s Designer’, Woodbridge 2005, p.192, pl. 363. Note: Dresser was associated with Elkington from about 1865-1890, and, apart from the series of famous designs he produced for the firm in the 1880s, was also employed in an advisory capacity with their experiments in Japanese techniques such as cloisonné enamel and Komai Ware. His designs for the firm in the 1880s were inspired by the Japanese teapots and other cooking vessels which he would have admired on his famous trip to Japan in 1876-77 but also the metal wares that were being imported and exhibited in Europe in the 1870s. Dresser reviewed the Japanese section of the Vienna International Exhibition of 1873 and commented that “While the kettle is an object of use in every house in the land, we have to go to Japan to learn how to make one as it should be”. The “square kettles and round kettles and polyhydric kettles” will have inspired him and the “breadth of treatment, simplicity of execution, and boldness of design” of the objects which he saw there and in Japan later on are reflected in the simplicity of line and undecorated nature of the famous designs he produced for Elkington’s, Hukin & Heath and James Dixon at this time. The present example, shape 16611, is entered as July 1881 in the V&A archive and is identical to the set registered in 1880 by James Dixon of Sheffield (shape 2278).

62 JOHN HENRY DEARLE (1859-1932) FOR MORRIS & CO. ’ACANTHUS’, EMBROIDERED PORTIÈRE, CIRCA 1890 silk embroidery on linen with green cotton backing, bears retailer’s label MORRIS & COMPANY/ 449 OXFORD STREET/ LONDON. W. 240cm x 158cm Provenance: Purchased at Morris & Co. and by family descent Note: By 1885 William Morris had turned his attention to other ventures within the business, handing the embroidery section to his daughter May, herself a talented embroiderer and passionate advocate of the Arts and Crafts movement. Whilst a majority of the designs produced for the firm were direct creations of William Morris, he was adept at handing on the reigns to a team of skilled draughtsmen who produced designs for many important commissions, none more so than John Henry Dearle. Dearle began his career with the firm as a shop assistant at 449 Oxford Street in 1878. Recognising the young man’s potential during his apprenticeship, Morris allowed Dearle to create fabric details and floral backgrounds for many of his designs. The pair opened a tapestry workshop at Queen Square shortly after and by 1890, at the age of 31, Dearle was Head Designer of the firm and responsible for handling the company’s commissions for house decorative schemes. Under the guidance of May Morris, Dearle produced a series of portières featuring some of his most recognisable designs, including Owl (circa 1895) now on display in the Victoria and Albert Museum. Whilst his artistic style always remains loyal to William Morris’ aesthetic, the 1890s mark a clear attempt from Dearle to develop a mature, more individual artistic vision. Morris’ early embroidery work typically features repeating patterns, yet in Acanthus, Dearle opts for a different design approach: a singular central acanthus motif which grounds the piece. He surrounds this dominating feature with a sensation for the eyes: interlocking vines and swirls of vibrantly coloured flowers. Among them are two of Dearle’s most distinctive designs: the pointed-headed tulip and dark veining on various flowers and leaves. Designed on linen and embroidered in silk using a dazzling array of colours, the quality of the piece remains in keeping with the Arts and Crafts tradition, valuing the skills of the craftsman over industrial machinery. Another example of this portière exists in the Art Gallery of South Australia, Adelaide. Their version was embroidered by Mary Isobel Barr Smith: a woman from wealthy and influential family who furnished a great number of their homes with Morris & Co. fabrics and furnishings.

106 CHARLES FRANCIS ANNESLEY VOYSEY (1857-1941) FOR THOMAS ELSLEY & CO.

For Voysey, even the most ordinary and smallest of items should illustrate a simple elegance in their design: ”…the common articles of everyday are intrinsically ugly…Why must we open our cash-box with a hideous key and find each coin devoid of dignity or grace?” These critical observations prompted him to produce designs for metalwork in the early 1890s, which included hinges and locks, keys, fireplaces, lights and jewellery. This bronze key is a fine example of Voysey’s arts and crafts ideology: characterised by a simple heart motif, the bold terminal creates a sense of originality for such a commonplace object. Strong vertical lines set against a plain surface advocate form and function over the needless complexities of ornate decoration. Graceful and elegant, his love for natural forms produced works of striking beauty.

Note: The original design for these chairs formed part of a series of designs Voysey created for new clients William and Haydee Ward-Higgs, a London solicitor and his wife, around 1898 for their home at No. 23 Queensborough Terrace. Several versions of the chair were made after 1898, including examples with caned seats as in these examples (mentioned in the Voysey archive at RIBA, no. 211). The interiors of their home were photographed for ‘The Furnisher’ magazine in 1899 and the promotion of Voysey’s designs in periodicals like ‘The Furnisher’ allowed them to be copied by contemporary craftsmen. A mahogany corner cabinet sold in these rooms after the original designed for the pre-Raphaelite artist E.R. Hughes is an example of this practice. The chairs forming the current lot, with their minor stylistic and size discrepancies from the original Ward-Higgs commission, may also have been made as a result of the publication of the original design.

£2,500-3,500 Note: Arthur William Simpson was born in Kendal, Cumbria 1857 and was apprenticed to Gillows of Lancaster in 1875 and worked at a number of workshops until setting up his own in Kendal in 1885, known as the Handicrafts. He was a follower of John Ruskin and in 1889 one piece was accepted by the Arts and Crafts Exhibition Society. It was there that he would have met the architect Charles Voysey who became a great influence on his work; his designs became more architectural and simpler with less carving; this wardrobe, designed circa 1910, being a good example. By 1912, Simpson was exhibiting alongside Voysey and Walton in the Ideal Home Exhibition at Olympia. His entire stand was sold to one client. He was commissioned to carve panels for Blackwell House, designed by Baillie Scott for Sir Edward Holt and such was his skill he was entrusted by Voysey to make a number of furniture commissions.

He went back to early Renaissance models - indeed he had recently been to Rome and returned full of ideas but simplified them into something essentially modern. The stool and writing table (the current lot) are eminently functional, in that they perform their purpose with a minimum of fuss, but at the same time rejoice the eye with their varied surfaced and vital lines...For these pieces Lorimer supplied the rough sketch, Whytock & Reid’s detailing the woods.”

This remarkable object, a key for the opening ceremony of Glasgow School of Art in 1899, was designed by the architect of the new school, Charles Rennie Mackintosh. As an architect and designer Mackintosh is seen as a ‘v transitional figure from the historicism of the 19th century to the abstraction of the 20th century’. With his masterwork the new Glasgow School of Art of 1899 and 1910, came a building that has come to symbolise his achievement as an architect. It speaks to this transition, with its roots in the Scottish tradition of building but with the influences of many including English Vernacular architecture, the architecture of the Arts & Crafts Movement and the Cult of Japan. The architectural competition for a new School of Art took place in 1896. The previous year the Bellahouston Trustees, a group of Glasgow businessmen and public officials who managed an estate of nearly £500,000, agreed to buy the Renfrew Street site for £6000 and present it to the School, with an additional £4000 for the building fund, on condition that the School raised a further £6000. Eight Glasgow architects were asked to take part in a competition for the new School, including John Honeyman & Keppie, where Mackintosh was employed as a junior draughtsmen. Sir James King and Sir Renny Watson were appointed to assess the plans. The winning entry, submitted in Mackintosh’s hand, was John Honeyman & Keppie. It had become clear to all the competing architects that there were not sufficient funds to complete the building as the trustees had wanted so it was reluctantly agreed that work should proceed only on the central and eastern half of the building only. Building work commenced in 1897 and by December 1899 the first phase of the School had been completed.
Sir James King Bart
Corporation Galleries at 2.30 o’clock - where they were received by the Chairman and Governors, and having adhibited their names to an illuminated document prepared by Miss Ann Macbeth a student of the School - were presented to the Hon the Lord Provost Samuel Chisholm. A procession was then formed - walking to the front entrance of the New Building, where a wrought iron key was presented on a white satin cushion by little Miss Mary Newbery to Sir James King Bart. of Campsie who then performed the Ceremony of unlocking the door. Miss Elsie Newbery at same time presented a bouquet to Mrs Chisholm.
The minutes of the board of the School of Art record the elaborate preparations for the opening of the new school in the early months of 1899. “Sir Francis Powell to ask if Princess Louise could be induced to come about the middle to end of October” records one entry. In the end, Princess Louise was unavailable and, after some deliberation by the board it was decided to ask Sir James King to open the school. Sir James King (1830-1911) had been the Lord Provost of Glasgow from 1886-9 and was the chairman of the 1888 Glasgow International Exhibition. As well as running his own family business he was a director and chairman of the Clydesdale Bank and played an active part in the public affairs of Glasgow, including as a trustee of the Bellahouston Trustees, which contributed to generously to the building of the new school.
A large party of ladies and gentlemen, on the invitation of the Chairman and Governors, were assembled in one of the class rooms, the platform being fully occupied by the numerous Representatives present…the whole Company (then) proceeded to inspect the premises and were further entertained with a light refreshment. The same evening a Re-union of students took place in the rooms which was largely attended and a most enjoyable evening was spent. A varied programme having been provided.”
The minutes later commented that “…at the suggestion of the headmaster (Francis “Fra” Newbery) it was recommended that the function should take place towards the end of the year including the Christmas holidays, when for a week or 10 days the Public might be invited to view the school, and where an exhibition of student’s work could be made in the main rooms”.
“When Glasgow School of Art opened in 1899 I remember a grey shady afternoon. Not a big crowd but quite an assembly of people arriving at the school and going into the first hall. After we’d been there a bit, a certain amount of talk and then we were all shooed out. Everybody stood out on the steps. Then there was another pause, then I’m afraid there were speeches. I don’t remember what they said I just remember waiting. Then I was shepherded up holding a small, oblong, pale, pearly silk cushion with a silver fringe round. It was oblong so as to be suitable to hold the special key of the front door. This cushion was made by Mrs. Mackintosh and my mother.
And so the stage was set and a date of 20th December decided upon. The minutes go on to describe the events of the day, including the crucial moment when the key, designed by Mackintosh, opened the building; “Representatives met in the
This contemporary account is almost entirely verified by the same little girl when she gave an interview, aged 92, to the author Alistair Moffat in 1985. Unlike the Board of Governors Mary Newbery (Sturrock) remembers some of the details the officials missed.

Thinking about this lately, the formal ceremony would be arranged by my father who had a touch of pageantry. He liked formal things done properly. Then the door was unlocked and in we went. There was a feeling of cheerful achievement. I don’t remember Mackintosh being present at the ceremony but I’m sure he must have been there somewhere in the building. When he did the work on the Glasgow School of Art he was only a draughtsman in Keppie’s office. Then he was made a junior partner. But in all these jobs, Keppie always maintained they were done by the firm. I think Margaret must have got the cushion home because it would have been very suitable for us to play with. But the cushion was very fine. The thing is the Mackintoshes were perfectionists and they couldn’t have an ordinary key. The door had a special plate and to open that interesting door of the new School of Art there had to be a proper key and that key had to be laid on a special cushion, and they couldn’t have just bought a Victorian cushion for a Mackintosh key. That’s the thing - Mackintosh wasn’t all that fussy, as they said he was, but to get things right he had to design them. I remember the key quite clearly now, shining pale in this grey afternoon when it was raining slightly, a drizzle, a real Glasgow afternoon. I was six.” How the key was commissioned is unclear. It may be that Newbery, as the architect of the ceremony and his “touch of pageantry”, commissioned it from Mackintosh, and perhaps also paid for it. An entry in the Job Books dated 26 April 1900 notes an invoice from the blacksmith and metalworker George Adam & Son for ‘£2 10s 0d’. The entry also reads ‘Key for opening (Newbery)’, just under an entry for the same maker for the Fleming Memorial for £39.0.0, also marked ‘(Newbery)’, further suggesting his personal involvement. George Adam established his firm around 1874, and whose firm became George Adam & Son when his eldest son, James joined the firm in 1896. At this time the work the firm was additionally described as ‘art metal works’ and now also undertook ‘gates, railings, roofing, casements etc. Many of the decorative metal brackets on the front of the school, the aluminium totems and the balcony for the headmaster’s balcony were made by the firm as the accounts show. The iron key is skilfully wrought with its totemic square terminal enclosing overlaid plant motifs is pierced with a series of circular apertures and painted black. Attached to the key by a chain is a planished silver commemorative plaque, probably applied after the ceremony. It is engraved with an inscription describing the key and its part in the opening of the School. The silver is hallmarked Glasgow 1899 and the engraved lettering almost
exactly matches the typeface used by the School of Art at this time, for example on the cover of its Prospectus and its Annual Report. The maker’s mark, which is mis-struck, was possibly for James Reid & Co. A silver and enamel commemorative Quaich with the same maker’s mark was made for the school by Dorothy Carleton Smyth, William Armstrong Davidson and Margaret De Courcy Lewthwaite Dewar. Sold in these rooms it is now held at the Kelvingrove Museum & Art Gallery in Glasgow (Lot 52, Taffner Collection, 7th September 2012). Also engraved on the plaque is a thistle and a leaf scroll within incused squares. The key and its plaque are mounted in a handmade oak presentation box, with a fitted interior lined in velvet to hold the key, presumably made as a presentation to Sir James to commemorate his part in the proceedings. What is clear from all of the contemporary accounts is that Mackintosh is barely mentioned. He is certainly not credited as the architect and was not involved in any of the labyrinthine speeches and ceremony, or in any of the minutes - that fell to John Keppie as was the custom. Writing to his friend Hermann Muthesius after the laying of the foundation stone the previous year he bemoans his anonymity; “You must understand that for the time being I am under a cloud - as it were - although the building in Mitchell Street here was designed by me the architects are or were Messrs Honeyman & Keppie - who employ me as an assistant. You will see that is very unfortunate for me, but I hope, when brighter days come, I shall be able to work for myself entirely and claim the work as mine”. Those brighter days did come and by the time the second phase opened in 1910 he was finally recognised as the architect.

Burkhauser, Jude (edit.) ‘Glasgow Girls’, Edinburgh 1990, p. 179, fig. 241 and 242 Note: This pendant in its form and execution demonstrates awareness of the symbolist jewellery being produced in Glasgow at the end of the 19th century and early 20th century, especially by Francis and Margaret Macdonald. The known work of the sisters is mainly figurative rather than in this example which shows opposed birds, a motif more commonly associated with artists such as Talwin Morris.

Billcliffe goes on to suggest that as the firm only existed from 1897-1904 it is likely that that they had seen the larger chairs, either in Glasgow or at the Arts & Crafts Exhibition in 1899, and amended the design to this smaller version.

His first major commission, at the age of twenty, was to produce a series of illustrations for an edition of Le Morte D’Arthur for J.M. Dent & Co. This particular copy was owned by John Keppie, the Glasgow-born architect and colleague to Charles Rennie Mackintosh, who designed his bookplate, pasted into each of these editions. Sinuous lines, extenuating plant forms and stylised figures characterise the work of Beardsley, easily the most influential draftsman of his time.

Though less known, her artistic work includes drawings and watercolours for children’s books and the comic ‘Little Dots’.

444 [§] PETER WOMERSLEY (1923-1993) ARCHITECTURAL MODEL FOR BERNAT KLEIN STUDIO, 1970S balsa wood 38cm wide, 19cm high, 33cm deep
£300-5000
The (Bernat) Klein House or ‘High Sunderland’ in the Scottish Borders was designed by architect Peter Womersley (1923-1993) for the textile designer, Bernat Klein (1922-2014) in 1956, with the later addition of a studio wing in 1982. A low, single storey building with large glass windows and a makore timber frame, the building sits in a picturesque location with views across the green fields, and reflects innovative design of the mid-century from every angle. Peter Womersley was known for various designs within Scotland, particularly in the Borders, including the football stadium for Gala Fairydean FC in Galashiels and the Nuffield Transplantation Unit at the Western General Hospital in Edinburgh. He also designed numerous homes, many of which are still used as private residences. His first domestic design was Farnley Hey in the Pennines in 1950, presented to Womersley’s brother John as a wedding gift, which won a Royal Institute of British Architect’s medal. It was this property, seen by Bernat Klein and his wife, which led to the commission of High Sunderland. Womersley’s work has been described as “exacting” and an “acquired taste” but there is no doubt when viewing his buildings that they reflect innovative mid-century design: open expansive cubic and geometric forms, incorporating the use of exotic hardwoods, glass and rather utilitarian materials like concrete, often situated in picturesque settings and landscapes with light flooding the interiors. Womersley’s work, whilst critiqued, also has strong admirers: Rowan Moore, for example, said in his article about Womersley, that he was “one of the best architects of the 20th century, and…one of the most overlooked. His buildings
are adventurous but poised; lucid, brave in conception and considered in their detail.” As a person he was held to be social, charming and a lover of travelling, but private and elusive. This may have contributed to his work not getting as much attention as it deserved: he wasn’t a big networker and he didn’t join multiple organisations or movements to promote his architecture. His designs reflect his training at the Architectural Association in London, influenced by the Bauhaus tradition, and nod quite firmly to the American contemporary style popular in California in the mid-century period. High Sunderland is no exception to these influences, being an expansive open space, separated by varied floor levels, secret doors and inbuilt cupboards, residing in a green space. Such is the importance of High Sunderland that is a category A listed property: a rare honour awarded to a post-war building. Historic Environment Scotland lists the house as “a signature work embodying his [Womersley’s] characteristic geometric modular design… © Historic Environment Scotland surviving in its original condition.” Its owner Bernat Klein was a very fitting occupant for the building, as a designer himself, he was much involved with the local art scene within the Borders of Scotland. High Sunderland was used as a canvas of sorts for Klein, who as well as keeping the original fittings and fixtures of the house to this day, incorporated his specially designed textiles into his home. He supplied textiles to various haute couture designers including Chanel, Dior, Balenciaga and Saint Laurent, and in the 1960s set up his own cottage industry of hand-knitters, before creating his own clothing range in the 1970s. He was inspired by nature, so the rural location of High Sunderland certainly seems like it was a perfect fit for his work.

The Auctioneer normally acts as agent only and disclaims any responsibility for default by Sellers or Buyers. 3. BIDDING PROCEDURES AND THE BUYER (a) Bidders are required to register their particulars before bidding and to satisfy any security and credit references or arrangements before entering the auction room to view or bid; (b) High Value Lots and High Cumulative Value of Lots: If you wish to bid on any High Value Lot (a lot with a lower estimate of £30,000 or above) or if you are bidding on several lots with a total lower estimate value of £30,000 or above, you are invited to complete the High Value Lot pre-registration. After you have successfully registered as a bidder with Lyon & Turnbull, you should complete the High Value Lot pre-registration before the date of sale by contacting the Office Manager or on the date of sale at the registration area. Unless otherwise agreed by us, you will be permitted to bid for High Value Lots only if Lyon & Turnbull has confirmed your payment of deposit and your completion of the High Value Lot pre-registration before the sale. The Deposit required will be 10% of the lower estimate. Upon pre-registration, you should pay the deposit or such other sum as determined by Lyon & Turnbull dependant on circumstances, by way of bank transfer or credit card(s) acceptable to Lyon & Turnbull. Please note that Lyon & Turnbull does not accept payment from third parties and this also applies to agents. If you are not successful in any bid and do not owe Lyon & Turnbull any debt, the deposit will be refunded to you by way of wire transfer or such other methods as determined by Lyon & Turnbull. Please make sure that you provide your bank details in the pre-registration form. The exchange rate provided to us by the bank on the date of exchange is final. We will arrange to refund the deposit to you within seven days after the date of sale, however we do not guarantee when you will receive the payment due to the variance in time for banks to process fund transfers. Upon successful pre-registration, you will be given a numbered High Value Lot paddle for identification purposes. The auctioneer will usually only accept bids made with the High Value Lot paddle or by its High Value Lot registered bidder. This applies to saleroom, telephone and absentee bids.

(e) Our right to bid on behalf of Sellers is expressly reserved up to the amount of any reserve. (f) The right to refuse any bid is also reserved. (g) Commission Bids: While prospective Buyers are strongly advised to attend the auction and are always responsible for any decision to bid for a particular lot and shall be assumed to have carefully inspected and satisfied themselves as to its condition we shall, if so instructed, clearly and in writing execute bids on their behalf. Neither the Auctioneer nor our employees nor agents shall be responsible for any failure to do so. Where two or more commission bids at the same level are recorded we reserve the right in our absolute discretion to prefer the first bid so made.

INCREMENTS Bidding increments shall be at the Auctioneer’s sole discretion. 5. THE PURCHASE PRICE For each lot purchased a Buyer’s Premium of 25% of the hammer price of each lot up to and including £100,000, plus 20% from £100,001 thereafter. VAT at the appropriate rate is charged on the Buyer’s Premium. No VAT is payable on the hammer price or premium for printed books or unframed maps bought at auction. Live online bidding is subject to an additional 3% premium (charged by the live bidding service provider Invaluable). This additional premium is subject to VAT at the appropriate rate as above. 6. VALUE ADDED TAX Value Added Tax is charged at the appropriate rate prevailing by law at the date of sale and is payable by Buyers of relevant lots. (1) Lots affixed with (†): Value Added Tax on the hammer price is imposed by law on all items affixed with a dagger (†). This imposition of VAT maybe because the Seller is registered for VAT within the European Union and is not operating under a Margin Scheme. (2) Lots affixed with (*): A reduced rate of
Value Added Tax on the hammer price of 5% is payable. This indicates that a lot has been imported from outwith the European Union. This reduced rate is applicable to Antique items.

(4) It is the Buyer’s responsibility to ascertain collection procedures, particularly if the sale is not being held at our main sale room and the potential storage charges for lots not collected by the appropriate time.
7. DROIT de SUITE This symbol § indicates works which may be subject to the Droit de Suite or Artist’s Resale Right, which took effect in the United Kingdom on 14th February 2006. We are required to collect a royalty payment for all qualifying works of art. Under new legislation which came into effect on 1st January 2012 this applies to living artists and artists who have died in the last 70 years. This royalty will be charged to the Buyer on the hammer price and in addition to the Buyer’s premium. It will not apply to works where the hammer price is less than €1,000 (euros). The charge for works of art sold at and above €1,000 (euros) and below €50,000 (euros) is 4%. For items selling above €50,000 (euros), charges are calculated on a sliding scale. All royalty charges are paid to the Design and Artists Copyright Society (‘DACS’) and no handling costs or additional fees are retained by the auctioneer. Resale royalties are not subject to VAT. Please note that the royalty payment is calculated on the rate of exchange at the European Central Bank on the date of the sale. More information on Droit de Suite is available at www.dacs.org.uk. 8. PAYMENT (1) Within 7 days of a lot being sold you will: (a) Pay to us the total amount due in cash or by such other method as is agreed by us. We accept cash, bank transfer (details on request), debit cards and Visa or MasterCard credit cards. (b) Please note that we do not accept cash payments over £5,000. (2) Any payments by you to us may be applied by us towards any sums owing by you to us howsoever incurred and without agreement by you or your agent, whether express or implied. 9. TITLE AND COLLECTION OF PURCHASES (1) The ownership of any lots purchased shall not pass to you until you have made payment in full to us of the total amount due. (2) You shall at your own risk and expense take away any lots that you have purchased and paid for not later than 7 working days following the day of the auction or upon the clearance of any cheque used for payment whichever is later.

(3) No purchase can be claimed or removed until it has been paid for.
(5) 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, e.g. items that may contain prohibited materials such as ivory or rhino horn. It is the buyer’s sole responsibility to obtain any relevant export or import licence. The denial of any licence or any delay in obtaining licences shall neither justify the recession of any sale not any delay in making full payment for the lot. 10. REMEDIES FOR NON·PAYMENT OR FAILURE TO COLLECT PURCHASES (1) If any lot is not paid for in full and taken away in accordance with these Conditions or if there is any other breach of these Conditions, we, as agent for the Sellers and on their behalf, shall at our absolute discretion and without prejudice to any other rights we may have, be entitled to exercise one or more of the following rights and remedies: (a) to proceed against you for damages for breach of contract; (b) to rescind the contract for sale of that lot and/or any other lots sold by us to you; (c) to resell the lot (by auction or private treaty) in which case you shall be responsible for any resulting deficiency in the total amount due (after crediting any part payment and adding any resale costs).

DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITION
(1) Whilst we seek to describe lots accurately, it may be impractical for us to carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot. Prospective Buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description applied to a lot. Prospective Buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably held and only accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we the auctioneer or our employees or agents accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and no warranties, whether relating to description, condition or quality of lots, express, implied or statutory, are given. Please note that photographs/images provided may not be fully representative of the condition of the lot and should not be relied upon as indicative of the overall condition of the lot. (2) Condition reports: Condition reports are provided on our website or upon request. The absence of a report does not imply that a lot is without imperfections. Large numbers of such requests are received shortly before each sale and department specialists and administration will endeavor to respond to all requests although we offer no guarantee. Any statement in relation to the lot is merely an expression of opinion of the Seller or Lyon & Turnbull and should not be relied upon as an inducement to bid on the lot. Lots are available for inspection prior to the sale and you are strongly advised to examine any lot in which you are interested prior to the sale. Our condition reports are not prepared by professional conservators, restorers or engineers. Our condition report does not form any contract between Lyon & Turnbull and the Buyer. The Condition Reports do not affect the Seller’s obligations in any way. (3) Estimates: Estimates are placed on each lot to help Buyers gauge the sums involved for the purchase of a particular lot. Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT. Estimates are a matter of opinion and prepared in advance. Estimates may be subject to change and are for guidance only and should not be relied upon. (4) Catalogue Alterations: Lot descriptions and estimates are prepared in advance of the sale and may be subject to change. Any alterations will be announced on the catalogue alteration sheet, made available prior to the sale. It is the responsibility of the Buyer to make themselves aware to any alterations which may have occurred. (5) Electrical Goods: are sold as “works of
art” only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations by a qualified electrician first. Use of such goods is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no warranties as to safety of the goods are given. (6) Upholstered items: are sold as “works of art” only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations (items manufactured prior to 1950 are exempt from any regulations). Use of such goods is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no warranties as to safety of the goods are given. Lyon & Turnbull provide no guarantee as to the originality of any wood/material contained within the item. (7) wine: may only be sold to persons aged of 18 years and over. By registering to bid, you affirm that you are at least that age. On collection, you must provide positive proof of age should this be requested. Buyers of wines must make appropriate allowances for natural variations of ullages, conditions of corks and wine. Lyon and Turnbull can provide no guarantees as to how the wine may have been stored. There is always a risk of cork failure and allowance by the buyer must be made. Wine is sold “as is” and quality of the wine is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no warranties are given. (8) Special terms may be used in catalogue descriptions of particular classes of items (Books, Jewellery, Paintings, Guns, Firearms etc.) in which case the descriptions must be interpreted in accordance with any glossary appearing in the catalogue. These notices and terms will also form part of our terms and conditions of sales. 12. BOOKS, CLOCKS & WATCHES (1) Books-Collation: If on collation any NAMED item in the sale catalogue proves defective, in text or illustration the Buyer may reject the lot provided he returns it within 21 days of the sale stating the defect in writing. This, however, shall not apply in the case of unnamed items, periodicals, autographed letters, music M.M.S., maps, drawings NOR in respect of damage to bindings, stains, foxing, marginal worm holes or other defects not affecting the completeness of the text NOR in respect of Defects mentioned in the catalogue, or at the time of sale, NOR in respect of lots sold for less than £300. (2) Clocks & Watches: All lots are sold “as seen”, and the absence of any reference to the condition of a clock or watch does not imply the lot is in good condition and without defects, repairs or restorations. Most clocks and watches will have been repaired during their normal lifetime and may now incorporate additional/newer parts. Furthermore, Lyon & Turnbull makes no representation or warranty that any clock or watch is in working order. As clocks and watches often contain fine and complex mechanisms,
Buyers should be aware that a general service, change of battery or further repair work, for which the Buyer is solely responsible, may be necessary. Buyers should also be aware that Lyon & Turnbull cannot guarantee a watch will remain waterproof if the back is removed. Buyers should be aware that the importing watches such as Rolex, Frank Muller and Corum into the United States is highly restricted. These watches cannot be shipped to the USA and only imported personally. 13. CITES Please be aware that all lots marked with the symbol Y may be subject to CITES regulations when exporting these items outside the EU. These regulations may be found at http://www.defra.gov.uk/ahvlaen/imports-exports/cites Lyon & Turnbull accepts no liability for any lots which may be subject to CITES but have not be identified as such. 14. SALE BY PRIVATE TREATY (a) The same Conditions of Sale (Buyers) shall apply to sales by private treaty. (b) Private treaty sales made under these Conditions are deemed to be sales by auction and subject to our agreed charges for Sellers and Buyers. (c) Lyon & Turnbull undertakes to inform the Seller of any offers it receives in relation to an item prior to any Proposed Sale, excluding the normal method of commission bids. (d) For the purposes of a private treaty sale, if a lot is sold in any other currency than Sterling, the exchange rate is to be taken on the date of sale. 15. THIRD PARTY LIABILITY All members of the public on our premises are there at their own risk and must note the lay-out of the accommodation, safety and security arrangements. Accordingly, neither the Auctioneer nor our employees or agents shall incur liability for death or personal injury or similarly for the safety of the property of persons visiting prior to, during or after a sale. 16. GENERAL (a) We shall have the right at our discretion, to refuse admission to our premises or attendance at our auctions by any person. (b) Any notice to any Buyer, Seller, bidder or viewer may be given by email if not available then first class mail in which case it shall be deemed to have been received by the addressee 48 hours after posting. (c) Notices to Lyon & Turnbull should be in writing and addressed to the Managing Director at 33 Broughton Place, Edinburgh EH1 3RR, quoting the reference number specified at the beginning of the sale catalogue. (d) Should any provision of these Conditions of Sale be held unenforceable for any reason, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
(e) These Conditions of Sale are not assignable by either party without the other’s prior written consent. No act, omission or delay by Lyon & Turnbull shall be deemed a waiver or release of any of its rights. (f) The contract between the parties may be varied by the parties by agreement and in writing. 17. AUTHENTICITY GUARANTEE Lyon & Turnbull guarantees that the authorship, period, or origin (collectively, “Authorship”) of each lot in this catalogue is as stated in the BOLD or CAPITALISED type heading in the catalogue description of the lot, as amended by oral or written salesroom notes or announcements. Lyon & Turnbull makes no warranties whatsoever, whether express or implied, with respect to any material in the catalogue other than that appearing in the Bold or Capitalised heading and subject to the exclusions below. In the event Lyon & Turnbull in its reasonable opinion deems that the conditions of the authenticity guarantee have been satisfied, it shall refund to the original purchaser of the lot the hammer price and applicable Buyer’s Premium paid for the lot by the original purchaser. This Guarantee does not apply if: (i) the catalogue description was in accordance with the opinion(s) of generally accepted scholar(s) and expert(s) at the date of the sale, or the catalogue description indicated that there was a conflict of such opinions; or (ii) the only method of establishing that the Authorship was not as described in the Bold or Capitalised heading at the date of the sale would have been by means or processes not then generally available or accepted; unreasonably expensive or impractical to use; or likely (in Lyon &Turnbull’s reasonable opinion) to have caused damage to the lot or likely to have caused loss of value to the lot; or (iii) there has been no material loss in value of the lot from its value had it been in accordance with its description in the Bold or Capitalised type heading. This Guarantee is provided for a period of one year from the date of the relevant auction, is solely for the benefit of the original purchaser of the lot at the auction and may not be transferred to any third party. To be able to claim under this Authenticity Guarantee, the original purchaser of the lot must: (i) notify Lyon & Turnbull in writing within one month of receiving any information that causes the original purchaser of record to dispute the accuracy of the Bold or Capitalised type heading, specifying the lot number, date of the auction at which it was purchased and the reasons for such dispute; and (ii) return the Lot to Lyon & Turnbull’s registered office in the same condition as at the date of sale to the original purchaser of record and be able to
transfer good title to the Lot, free from any third party claims arising after the date of such sale. Lyon & Turnbull has discretion to waive any of the above requirements. Lyon & Turnbull may require the original purchaser of the lot to obtain, at the original purchaser of lot’s cost, the reports of two independent and recognised experts in the field. The reports must be mutually acceptable to Lyon & Turnbull and the original purchaser of the lot. Lyon & Turnbull shall not be bound by any reports produced by the original purchaser of the lot, and reserves the right to seek additional expert advice at its own expense. It is specifically understood and agreed that the rescission of a sale and the refund of the original purchase price paid (the successful hammer price, plus the buyer’s premium) is exclusive and in lieu of any other remedy which might otherwise be available as a matter of law. Lyon & Turnbull and the Seller shall not be liable for any incidental or consequential damages incurred or claimed, including without limitation, loss of profits or interest. 18.
