35 E.W. GODWIN (1833-1886), PROBABLY FOR GILLOW & CO. AESTHETIC MOVEMENT ‘COFFEE TABLE’, CIRCA 1880 ebonised birch with incised and gilded decoration 48cm long, 69.5cm high, 37.5cm deep Literature: Soros, Susan The Secular Furniture of E. W. Godwin, Yale 1999, pp. 29, 155, 267, pl.220 William Watt (Firm); Watt, William, Godwin E.W., et al Art Furniture designed by Edward W, Godwin F.S.A. and manufactured by William Watt, B.T. Batsford, London, 1877, plate 8 where the design for the present lot a ‘Coffee Table’, is illustrated.

£1,500-2,000

Note: Godwin’s ideas for furniture were ‘so accurately rendered that they were easily translated into actual designs to be put into production by the many well-established cabinetmakers that flourished in Britain during the 19th century’. Godwin contended that “Cabinetmakers always prefer architects to design for them when they can get them” and this is borne out by the numbers of firms which used his designs including Collinson & Lock, Cox & Son W.A.&S. Smee, William Watt, Gillow & Co. and others.

Godwin’s design for the current lot, the maker attributed to Gillow & Co., appears marked ‘Coffee Table’ in an interior setting in one of his line drawing in William Watt’s Art Furniture designed by Edward W, Godwin F.S.A. and manufactured by William Watt of 1877. The quality of construction and refined details such as the incised gilding suggests the superior cabinet-making skills of a firm like Gillows. This example also equates to other marked examples of Godwin’s more familiar square-topped coffee table by Gillows, which bear similar gilded embellishments.

Batley (1846-1932), British Aesthetic Movement Artist and Designer, Studies in the Decorative Arts, VI, no. 2 (Spring-Summer 1999), pp. 6-8

£400-600

Note: Soros states that what distinguishes Batley’s work from other art furniture by designers such as T.E. Collcut and E.W. Godwin is the dense effect of the sheer quantity of decorative devices he used, including tooled leather, turned spindles, applied and painted panels, carved details, and decorative mouldings, as in the present example. Batley trained under Bruce Talbert and designed in the Gothic Revival style in the 1860s, however although this cabinet demonstrates some Gothic origins, here Batley incorporates Japonesque Aesthetic details in an asymmetric composition.

Note: This teapot appears in one of a series of costings books held in the archives at Sheffield. The books date from 1879 to 1883 and reveal that Dresser produced approximately 80 designs for Dixon’s, not all of which are thought to have gone into full production. This was possibly due to comparative expense of manufacture, but also because of the radical nature of the designs. What the books also show us is how much each item produced cost to make in detail, how they were made and in most cases which were designed by Dresser. Scholarly study of the books has tended to concentrate on the costings for 1879, which contains the famous designs for Japanese teapots, and this spherical teapot which appears in the book with the inscription “1 gill teapot 2278/ Designed by Dr. Dresser”. Looking through the books, the majority of the designs are not illustrated, with the exception of those by Dresser, which usually appear as a thumbnail sketch or photograph. This may be an indication that these more expensive and unusual vessels did not appear in their trade catalogues and were perhaps generally made to order.

£4,000-6,000

Note: This fine cabinet, although of conventional form, has particular design characteristics which set it apart; its distinctive gallery and the fine marquetry panels inlaid to the sides. The design of two of the inlays appear to be adapted from colour plates published in Christopher Dresser’s Studies in Design of 1876 - the hares from plate VII; and the duck from bird designs in plates XLVI and VI. There are also strong similarities to an illustration in his Principles of Decorative Design of 1873 (the fish from figure 20); and bird and animal designs for Minton & Co. circa 1871. These designs were, like other output from the Christopher Dresser’s studio, often drawn up and, on occasion designed under Dresser’s supervision by an assistant. In the case of the first two examples this assistant is thought to be the Scottish-born designer John Moyr Smith. The confusion surrounding the attribution of certain designs by Dresser is largely due to a lack of information but also that the stylistic similarities of many of his designs to those of his assistants is so striking. Some assistants were to leave Dresser’s offices and pursue careers of their own and although most believe that Moyr Smith worked for Dresser in his studio for a short period it may also be the case that he collaborated with him in the supply of designs to his projects on an ongoing basis. Whether he worked for Dresser directly or not by 1872 Moyr Smith was an independent designer supplying designs to a number of manufacturers including Cox & Sons in London. The firm of Cox & Sons, originally church furnishers, were involved in the art movements in the second half of the 19th century and commissioned furniture, metalwork, stained glass and ceramic designs from several leading designers, including Bruce Talbert and E.W. Godwin.

Cox & Sons also supplied stained glass to some of Christopher Dresser’s interior projects, but if Dresser used them in a wider sense is unclear. He was obliged to distance himself from their output because of the similarities of his designs to those of Moyr Smith. The attribution to Cox & Sons is strengthened by the fact that the firm is known to have used one of the designs used on this cabinet on a single-handled vase (Woolley & Wallis, October 2009, Lot 549). Many of the firms who produced Dresser’s textile and carpet designs believed in his abilities as a designer and were all based in the Halifax region. A number of them also commissioned Dresser to design the interiors of their homes. Of those only two domestic commissions survive and are in very poor condition, leaving only clues to the total composition of Dresser’s interiors. In 1865 The Furniture Gazette published designs for the panels in dining room supplied by Dresser to J.W. Ward of Halifax, a textile maker who used Dresser’s designs. The panels represented fish, fowl, flesh, fruit, wine and beer. The panels in the current lot, representing Game, Fowl, Fish and Mutton may also have been designed for a similar dining room scheme. The profuse, albeit restrained, marquetry inlay of this cabinet is somewhat at odds with Dresser’s more characteristically austere and pared-down aesthetic. He was, however, known to have been expedient and his ‘theoretical utterances’ did not always get in the way of the success of a busy studio where it was impossible to be entirely pure in intention. Many of Moyr Smith’s published designs of the 1870s were later ascribed to Dresser suggesting their origins in Dresser’s studio. Either way, until further information emerges, the attribution of many of these intriguing pieces remains unclear.

CLUTHA GLASS It is thought that Dresser first became acquainted with James Coupar & Sons following their production of St. Mungo glass. Its affinity with early Venetian and Roman glass resonated well with Dresser’s own interests in glassmaking; he admired the organically formed shapes and naturally coloured tints, which led him to further investigate the technical aspects of glass-blowing. He believed that “glass was capable of assuming the most delicate of shades” and in applying the principles of traditional glass-blowing techniques a harmonious effect could be produced. Following suit, Dresser’s designs for the Clutha range are defined by daring use of colour and an array of mesmerising shapes. Typified by hues of pale green, Dresser experimented further with various colours and shades and began to incorporate aventurine inclusions – a direct influence of those early glasswares which fascinated him.

88

Dresser designed for James Couper & Sons until the mid-1890s and was followed by George Walton as a designer. Production ceased shortly after 1900.

Godwin to produce designs for wallpapers. His grandson Roger Warner was a renowned antique dealer based in Burford Oxfordshire who directed taste towards objects that previously had been disregarded or even derided, ensuring that popular, regional and vernacular arts, whether wooden furniture, pottery, treen, metal-wares, textiles and domestic utensils, were saved and studied.

THE TILES OF WILLIAM DE MORGAN There had not been a tile-making tradition in England since the reformation and it was not re-introduced until the 1830s, at the beginning of the great period of Victorian church building and restoration. Initially confined to tiling for floors by the 1870s the market for decorative tiles was enormous, and virtually every new building project incorporated a tiled element of one sort of another, extending in some cases to the walls and even the ceilings. It was in this burgeoning market that the renowned Arts & Crafts ceramicist William de Morgan (1839-1917) made his name. The eldest of seven children, de Morgan was born in 1839 and showed early promise as an artist. During his formal education at the Royal Academy Schools he met influential artists like Simeon Solomon and Henry Holiday. In 1862 Holiday introduced de Morgan to William Morris who was to become a life-long friend and collaborator and who offered him a job. Morris & Company was only two years old at this point and de Morgan began with the firm designing stained glass with Burne-Jones and also decorating tiles, to the designs of Morris. During his work with glass de Morgan noticed that if silver nitrate stain was fired at the wrong temperature on the glass it would reduce and produce an iridescence on the surface.

Fascinated by this lustrous effect he began experimenting with glass and ceramics, buying blank tiles and plates, decorating and firing them in a makeshift kiln at his home in Fitzroy Square, which subsequently burnt the roof off. Doubtless this unfortunate event precipitated a move to Chelsea in 1872, marking the end of his stained glass career. It also marked the beginning of his own business producing tiles and other ceramics to his own designs. De Morgan went on to produce tiles for many large commissions. After his period at Merton Abbey he moved the business nearer to his home at Fulham. By the turn of the century his designs had fallen out of fashion and he stopped production in 1907 lamenting that “All my life I have been trying to make beautiful things...and now that I can nobody wants them.” Despite this setback he managed to change his career late in life and became a successful novelist. His tile designs can broadly be categorised as plants and flowers, usually of Middle Eastern influence; exotic or fantastical animals and medieval galleons at sea, of which there are several fine examples of each type in this sale.

Note: Early lustre tiles by de Morgan were fired on Dutch delft tiles often to impressive effect although these are scarcer. Many examples, as in the present lot, were produced using ‘ bought in’ white glazed industrial tiles. This industrial type of glazed tile had the advantage of consistent and strong glazes and were easily available. The decoration was painted and the tile then re-fired in his workshops.

Mackmurdo’s Century Guild, set up his company ‘Heatons Cloisonné-Mosaic Ltd’ at 6 Berners Street, London in 1887, a year after selling his share in his father’s lucrative stained glass business Heaton, Butler & Bayne for £4,800. He patented his enamelling technique in 1886, inspired by medieval techniques which precluded the firing process and which instead used coloured cements: a mixture of resin, beeswax, sulphur marble dust and coloured pigments. Hardening over time, these cements could be polished to give the soft matt finish characteristic of Heaton’s work and seen in the present example.

196 CARDEW, GLORIA. GUILD OF WOMEN-BINDERS A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM, CIRCA 1900 published J.M Dent & Co., London 1895, with plates illustrated by R. Anning Bell and hand-coloured by Gloria Cardew, bound in calf, probably by the Guild of Women-Binders, the cover worked in relief with the figure of Puck and other fairies, bears paper label pasted to the interior and bearing inscription THE ILLUSTRATIONS IN THIS BOOK WERE COLOURED BY HAND BY MISS GLORIA CARDEW Literature: Kaplan, Wendy (ed.) Scotland Creates: 5000 Years of Art and Design, Weidenfeld & Nicholson 1990, pp.152-3, fig 10.3 where a book bound by Annie S Macdonald is illustrated Note: Although Gloria Cardew was not a bookbinder, “many books coloured by her were bound by members of the Guild” (Tidcombe, p. 126). This is largely due to Frank Karslake (1851-1920), who acted as an agent of hers in 1898 (IBIS Journal, 2014, p. 75). Cardew was a prolific hand-colourist of book illustration and often worked for the Guild, as well as the Kelmscott and Vale Presses. Little is known of her and it was thought that her name was a pseudonym, although her photograph was published in the 1898 Guild of Women-Binders exhibition catalogue of 1898. Karslake established the Guild of Women-Binders in May 1898 at 61, Charing Cross Road, London in the same building as his other bindery, The Hampstead Bindery. The bindery produced lavishly-bound books in the highest quality material and took on many different binders, such as Annie S. MacDonald, Jessie McGibbon, Phoebe Traquair, Florence de Rheims, and Karslake’s two daughters, Constance & Olive Karslake. A similar binding held in the National Library of Scotland by Annie S. Macdonald (1849‑1924) shows the same technique as the current example in moulded natural morocco. Macdonald, a friend of Traquair re-introduced the craft of artistic bookbinding in Edinburgh in the mid-1890s and she, Traquair and others were affiliated with not only to the new Edinburgh Arts and Crafts Club but to the Guild of Women-Binders from 1898. The subject of the current lot is based on the painting Puck Fleeing before the Dawn by David Scott (1806-1849), currently held in the National Gallery of Scotland (NG 992).

Note: John Williams trained at C.R. Ashbee’s Guild of Handicraft. In 1892 he went on to teach at Hammersmith School of Arts and also Fivemiletown Art Metalwork classes in County Tyrone where he supplied most of the designs and where this fender was made. In 1899 The Studio said of John Williams:

“In designing for pewter and for somewhat heavier applications of brass and copper, John Williams is still the tutelary genius of Fivemiletown. The designs of so able and judicious an artist must be invaluable alike to the native and the more advanced craftsman, for they have a breadth and dignity of line which cannot fail to react well upon the growing style of the executant”.

£20,000-30,000

Archibald Knox’s designs for Liberty & Co. are very well documented, especially his designs for their ‘Tudric’ and ‘Cymric’ ranges. At 25cm high, however, this clock is unusually larger than its smaller counterpart, which typically measures around 16cm high. Knox is known to have produced only a few extra-sized clocks during his Liberty period and it may be that this rare example was produced as a special commission. Knox’s work draws on the rich cultural heritage of his native Isle of Man. As with many of the larger clocks that are known to exist, their monumental and minimalist forms are

reminiscent of the standing Celtic stones which populate the island’s countryside and which Knox spent a lifetime exploring. The decoration on this example, stripped of superfluous ornament, incorporates abalone shell inlay as a series of narrow strips; a stark and striking visual effect that signals a modernist approach to the design. This impressive clock fulfils Knox’s desire to bring together two worlds which he valued deeply: the ancient Celtic tradition and the new, modern world of design, which was undergoing the development of a new and innovative aesthetic.

DEL, inscribed ANNA MUTHESIUS and DAS EIGENKLEID 32cm x 25cm Provenance: Phillips, London, 17 November 1998, lot 287 Collection of Donald & Eleanor Taffner, New York Lyon & Turnbull, Edinburgh, The Taffner Collection, 7th September 2012, lot 64 Private Collection, London Literature: Burkhauser, Jude ‘Glasgow Girls: Women in Art and Design 18801920’, Edinburgh 1990, p. 54, fig. 53 for illustration of the printed book cover. Robertson, Pamela (Edit.) ‘Doves and Dreams: The Art of Frances Macdonald and J. Herbert MacNair’, Hampshire 2006, p. 170, exhib. ref. G17; G18, cat. ill. 16 for an image of the printed cover. Note: A member of the ‘Glasgow Four’, Frances Macdonald McNair’s collaborations with her sister Margaret, Charles Rennie Mackintosh and Herbert McNair are celebrated as pivotal works in the development of the Art Nouveau aesthetic in Scotland. Equally, her individual output as an artist was radical and challenged the fanciful and idealised depictions of the female form that were prevalent in Victorian Art of the late nineteenth century. This important early work by Frances, an original cover design for ‘Das Eigenkleid Der Frau’, epitomises the avant-garde movement and illustrates a bold feminist statement, depicting a fresh image of the emerging ‘New Woman’. Unlike some of her contemporaries, Frances’ early life was not one of hardship. Her father’s success as an engineer ensured the family was financially secure so that Margaret and Frances could enrol in Day Classes at the prestigious Glasgow School of Art in 1891, a privilege that, at the time, most young women did not enjoy. Indeed, the city of Glasgow in the 1890s was a highly prosperous one; quickly becoming one of the wealthiest cities in the United Kingdom, it was a model for innovative design and manufacturing processes within the shipbuilding and textile industries. In this vein, the School of Art’s main focus was to foster talented designers that would strengthen the city’s key trades in an age of rapid change and increasing industrialisation. Yet the School’s Director, Francis Newberry, equally valued the importance of nurturing individuality and actively encouraged students to explore their own interests in their work, creating unique avenues for artistic expression. Frances and Margaret immersed themselves in this stimulating and progressive environment and one in which women were able to pursue a career as an artist, as opposed to undertaking classes for merely recreational purposes.

This unique approach to art and design was critical in Frances’ formative years as an artist. In her early work, we see a distinct departure from the academic tradition, in favour of experimentation with stylised human forms and decorative linear patterns. This is confidently executed in her design for the cover of ’Das Eigenkleid Der Frau’ (Women’s Own Dress). The design is steeped in lyrical symmetry as the eye traces around the abstracted curvilinear forms, dancing from figure to figure. Frances’ links to the ‘Glasgow Four’ and the Art Nouveau aesthetic are also apparent; from the idiosyncratic lettering to preoccupations with botanical forms, in particular stylised roses. The book itself, authored by Anna Muthesius, is considered a seminal text in the development of early twentieth-century women’s fashion. Muthesius and her husband Hermann, the architectural writer, became close friends with the ‘The Four’ after several trips to Glasgow and the Willow Tearooms. Anna believed women should have the freedom to choose their own clothes, styling and fabrics. Her book celebrates artistic dress and represents an outlet for radical expression for women, aligning itself well to Frances’ artistic representation of the female form. The dresses were usually made by their designers and the book includes plates showing the Macdonald sisters wearing such dresses along with similar examples designed by Jessie Newbery and worn by her daughters, Mary and Elsie. The turn of the century was characterised by great social and political upheaval. At the centre of this was the idea of the ‘New Woman’; a financially independent woman who was able to engage more actively as a member of society. More women attained an education and joined the workforce to earn a living for themselves; they were able to engage in more sporting activities such as cycling, and they could freely express themselves through fashion. Taking a closer look at the design, one is immediately drawn to the enchanting linearity of the figures, deviating from the constraints of traditional Victorian representations of women as objects of purity and beauty. Here, the figures are imbued with an almost mystical quality, as they appear floating in a newly imagined world of femininity. Each woman is depicted in an elaborate shoulder-less dress which accentuates their feminine features; a mass of flowing hair carries the eye down the image until it catches the scattering of roses and every intricate detail of clothing, so as not to miss a single thread. These women refuse to prescribe to a rigid Victorian society of the past. Instead, they represent a promise of change, towards greater independence and individuality. Frances’ work was heavily criticised at the time and much of it was destroyed by her husband following her death, yet she was a pivotal artist in the development of the Glasgow Style and Art Nouveau aesthetic in Scotland. ’Das Eigenkleid Der Frau’ is a stunning example of her early designs that are confrontational, unapologetic, and defiant in illustrating a refreshing image of the ‘New Woman’ in a post-Victorian avant-garde era.

362 CHARLES RENNIE MACKINTOSH (1868-1928) GATE-LEG TABLE, CIRCA 1910 decorated oak, with rectangular top and single drop leaf above square tapered legs linked by stretchers and terminating in brass caps and castors, the whole with stencilled chequer decoration 122cm long, 58.5cm deep (closed), 86cm deep (open), 76cm high Provenance: William Douglas Esq. Collection of Angus and Alison Hill, Glasgow Literature: Billcliffe, Roger Charles Rennie Mackintosh, The Complete Furniture, Furniture Drawings and Interior Designs, Cameron & Hollis 2009, p.262, Cat. No. 1910.21 where the companion table is illustrated. Note: In 1911 Mackintosh was in the last phase of creativity as an architect and designer in Glasgow before he and his wife Margaret Macdonald Mackintosh moved to Walberswick in Suffolk three years later. During that year he was commissioned by Miss Cranston to provide designs for the temporary White Cockade tearoom at the Glasgow Exhibition. He also produced redesigns of furniture and interior decorations for The Chinese Room and designed a new room, The Cloister Room, both for Miss Cranston’s Ingram Street Tearooms. At the same time, he worked on a series of furniture designs for his friend, the decorator William Douglas, who worked from premises in West George Street and was employed on various projects by Mackintosh including Hous’hill, Miss Cranston’s home, in 1904. Amongst the furniture designed for Douglas was the current lot, a previously unrecorded gate-leg table in oak with distinctive and characteristic chequer decoration which extends around the piece. In keeping with other furniture in this group the table’s design has its origins in earlier furniture styles. It is unusual to see the painted design applied directly to the furniture although the design is a frequently used motif. Mackintosh did use this stencilled technique in a later scheme for W.J. Bassett-Lowke at 78 Derngate, Northampton from 1916-19. A companion Pembroke table, also made for William Douglas, but with two drop leaves and the gate legs to opposing sides, has identical decoration.

363 TALWIN MORRIS (1865-1911) GLASGOW SCHOOL SYMBOLIST PANEL, CIRCA 1900 repoussé brass, framed 18.5cm x 17cm Note: After spending part of his early career working as an art editor in London, Talwin Morris took up a post as Arts Manager for Glasgow publisher Blackie & Son in 1898, a position he held until his death in 1911. He quickly became acquainted with Charles Rennie Mackintosh and the circle of artists associated with Blackie and the Glasgow School of Art, which had a significant influence on his work. Perhaps best known for his book designs, Morris also produced pieces of furniture, textiles and metal work, which were incorporated into many of his decorative schemes, including his own home at Dunglass Castle. Here, the influence from the Glasgow School is most evident in the heavily stylised features of the figure as well as a concerted effort to express the linear and abstract.

£10,000-15,000 Note: Following the success of his designs for Miss Cranston’s Ingram Street Tearooms in 1911, Mackintosh spent the next few years struggling to find work, and by 1914 he and his wife Margaret had moved to Walberswick in Suffolk. They remained in close contact with Francis Newberry and his family, who spent their summer holidays in cottages nearby. Mackintosh’s main client during this period was W. J. Bassett Lowke, of 78 Derngate, Northampton. Bassett Lowke had fostered early connections with those involved in the Deutscher Werkbund movement, which played a central role in the development of modern architecture and industrial design. Having not heard of Mackintosh prior to 1914, Bassett Lowke hired him for a project following the recommendation of a close friend. After leaving Glasgow, Mackintosh was keen to explore the inspirations he found during his visit to Vienna in 1900, and this married well with Bassett Lowke’s open-minded approach to the design and manufacturing process. In the current lot, Mackintosh places a clear emphasis on angular lines, minimal decoration and a far more solid sense of form; a departure from the curvilinear and stylised decorative motifs which dominated much of his earlier work. Typically, Mackintosh would have personally advised the furniture maker, amending his designs as the piece was in the midst of construction. However, under Basset-Lowke, Mackintosh had to rely on his drawings to communicate his wishes to the company’s craftsmen, many of whom were German immigrants working on the Isle of Man. Designs focussed on broad planes of timber, polished and waxed rather than stained, enhanced by details of abalone inlay. The result is an array of visually striking furniture with an elegant decorative effect that defines his work in Northampton.

CONDITIONS OF SALE FOR BUYERS (UK) These Conditions of Sale and the Saleroom Notices as well as specific Catalogue terms, set out the terms on which we offer the Lots listed in this Catalogue for sale. By registering to bid and/or by bidding at auction You agree to these terms, we recommend that You read them carefully before doing so. You will find a list of definitions and a glossary at the end providing explanations for the meanings of the words and expressions used. 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. In these Conditions the words “Us”, “Our”, “We” etc. refers to Lyon & Turnbull Ltd, the singular includes the plural and vice versa as appropriate. “You”, “Your” means the Buyer. Lyon & Turnbull Ltd. acts as agent for the Seller.

A. BEFORE THE SALE 1. DESCRIPTIONS OF LOTS

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. All dimensions and weights are approximate only. 2. O UR RESPONSIBILITY FOR OUR DESCRIPTION OF LOTS

We do not provide any guarantee in relation to the nature of a Lot apart from our authenticity warranty contained in paragraph E.2 and to the

19.2

extent provided below. (a) 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 endeavour 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 us 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 us and the Buyer. The Condition Reports do not affect the Buyer’s obligations in any way. (b) 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. (c) 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. 3. WITHDRAWAL

Lyon & Turnbull may, at its discretion, withdraw any Lot at any time prior to or during the sale of the Lot. Lyon & Turnbull has no liability to You for any decision to withdraw. 4. JEWELLERY, CLOCKS & OTHER ITEMS

(a) Jewellery: (i) Coloured gemstones (such as rubies, sapphires and emeralds) may have been treated to enhance their look, through methods such as heating and oiling. These methods are accepted practice but may make the gemstone less strong and/or require special care in future. (ii) All types of gemstones may have been improved by some method. You may request a gemmological report for any Lot which does not have a report if the request is made to us at least three weeks before the date of the sale and You pay the fee for the report in advance of receiving said report. (iii) We do not obtain a gemmological

report for every gemstone sold in our sales. Where we do get gemmological reports from internationally accepted gemmological laboratories, such reports may be described in the Sale Particulars. Reports will describe any improvement or treatment only if we request that they do so, but will confirm when no improvement or treatment has been made. Because of differences in approach and technology, laboratories may not agree whether a particular gemstone has been treated, the amount of treatment or whether treatment is permanent. The gemmological laboratories will only report on the improvements or treatments known to the laboratories at the date of the report. (iv) For jewellery sales, all Estimates are based on the information in any gemmological report or, if no gemmological report is available, You should assume that the gemstones may have been treated or enhanced. (b) 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, we make 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 we 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. Clocks may be sold without pendulums, weights or keys. (c) Alcohol: 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. All collections must be signed for by a person over the age of 18. We Reserve the right to ask for ID from the person collecting. Buyers of alcohol must make appropriate allowances for natural variations of ullages, conditions of corks and wine. We can provide no guarantees as to how the alcohol may have been stored. There is always a risk of cork failure and allowance by the Buyer must be made. Alcohol is sold “as is” and quality of the alcohol is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no warranties are given.

(d) 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. (e) 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. (f) 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. We provide no guarantee as to the originality of any wood/material contained within the item.

B. REGISTERING TO BID 1. NEW BIDDERS

(a) If this is Your first time bidding at Lyon & Turnbull or You are a returning Bidder who has not bought anything from us within the last two years You must register at least 48 hours before an auction to give us enough time to process and approve Your registration.

D. THE BUYER’S PREMIUM, TAXES AND ARTIST’S RESALE ROYALTY

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.

E. WARRANTIES

1. SELLER’S WARRANTIES

For each Lot purchased a Buyer’s Premium of 25% of the Hammer Price of each Lot up to and including £300,000, plus 20% from £300,001 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 may be subject to an additional premium (level dependent on the live bidding service provider chosen). This additional premium is subject to VAT at the appropriate rate as above.

For each Lot, the Seller gives a warranty that the Seller; (a) Is the owner of the Lot or a joint owner of the Lot acting with the permission of the other co-owners, or if the Sellers is not the owner of or a joint owner of the Lot, has the permission of the owner to sell the Lot, or the right to do so in law, and; (b) Had the right to transfer ownership of the Lot to the Buyer without any restrictions or claims by anyone else. If either other above warranties are incorrect, the Seller shall not have to pay more than the Purchase Price (as defined in the glossary) paid by You to us.

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. (a) 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. (b) 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 outwit the European Union. This reduced rate is applicable to Antique items.

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.
