As the world opens up and Spring blossoms we are delighted to welcome you to the fourth edition of Modern Made and hope to see some of you in person for viewing at the Mall Galleries in London. The aim of Modern Made is to act as a showcase for the best of Modern Art across multiple disciplines including paintings, works on paper, design and contemporary and studio glass and ceramics. By presenting a carefully curated display of works that reflect the creativity, interconnectedness and importance of all the mediums in the 20th & 21st Centuries, it allows for reciprocal links and integral questions to be posed and examined. At the heart of this idea are the connections between different artists in various mediums. Art Education in the mid-20th Century encouraged hands-on learning across differing disciplines, influenced by educational principles forged at the Bauhaus in the early decades of the century that reached Britain and America by the 1930s. In Britain, whether at the Royal College of Art, Central School or Camberwell School of Arts for example, it was often the case that students attended lectures together, socialised and exchanged work, only towards the end of the day separating into their independent specialities.

The current edition of Modern Made is perhaps the most exciting so far and features at its core important collections of studio and contemporary glass, Italian design and Modern British Art. Comprising two significant collections, the selection of post-war glass traverses the history of the movement and includes works by some of the most significant international figures in the school including Fulvio Bianconi, Lino Tagliapietra, Dale Chihuly, Toots Zynsky, Yoichi Ohira, William Morris and Massimo Micheluzzi. The array of techniques and colours is sure to provide a feast for the eyes. Works by Gio Ponti, Ico Parisi and Pietra Chiesa highlight the diversity, creativity and innovation in Italian design practices in the pre-and post-war years. Significant sculptures by Leon Underwood, Lynn Chadwick, Robert Adams, Robert Clatworthy, and Elizabeth Frink reflect important and significant changes in Modern British Sculpture. Other collections to be featured in the auction and exhibition include a charming collection of works by Mary Fedden and Julian Trevelyan, and Design on the Move – a collection of posters from the renowned Shell Heritage Art Collection, sold to benefit The National Motor Museum Trust. We believe that Modern Made is captivating, with something for everyone. It presents an opportunity to acquire works by some of the century’s most celebrated artists and makers. We hope that the exhibition and auction is exciting, thought-provoking and most importantly uplifting. PHILIP SMITH | April 2021


DESIGN ON THE MOVE | Posters from The Shell Heritage Art Collection

Posters from The Shell Heritage Art Collection to benefit The National Motor Museum Trust AUCTION THURSDAY 29 APRIL AT 6PM From the 1920s to the 1950s, Shell commissioned some of the most powerful advertising campaigns ever produced. The company realised early on that its advertisements promoted not only petrol and oil but also motoring, and motoring meant special pleasures – exhilaration, freedom and the joys of the British countryside. Commissioned by Jack Beddington, who had a keen eye for young talent, the list of artists selected were considered to be leading the British art establishment at the time and included Ben Nicholson, Graham Sutherland, Edward McKnight Kauffer and Paul Nash. Beddington’s ability to give young contemporary artists a platform to produce original advertisements made the campaigns of his era a great success. Shell was thus seen to be a patron of the arts, bringing fine art out of the gallery and on to the streets. McKnight Kauffer himself commented: “The artist in advertising is a new kind of being... it is his business constantly to correct values, to establish new ones, to stimulate advertising and help to make it worthy of the civilisation that needs it.” (Haworth-Booth p.85) Shell ran a number of thrilling poster campaigns in the 1930s, targeting audiences who had recently acquired access to a motor car. The ‘People Prefer’ series showed the broad range of people that opted for Shell, including: Farmers, Film Stars, Tourists and Doctors. In this way, “company and user underlined the taste and judgement of each other in a process of mutual reinforcement.” (Hewitt, The Shell Poster Book) The ‘Everywhere you Go, You can be Sure of Shell’ and ‘To Visit Britain’s Landmarks you can be Sure of Shell’ series saw a departure from references to oil and petrol in favour of fine landmarks, historical sites and inspiring landscapes, all firmly located in the countryside.

They perfectly encapsulated an idealized view of rural life much desired by the middle classes, particularly those from large towns. ‘By celebrating and making accessible such rural delights, Shell won the plaudits of powerful pressure groups who sought to protect the countryside from urban expansion and the destruction of rural amenities by advertising hoardings’. (Hewitt, The Shell Poster Book) The posters offered for sale are all Lorry Bills, illustrated in the picture shown here, which were attached to the sides and backs of Shell lorries, delivering oil and petrol to customers all over the country. These duplicates have come directly from the renowned Shell Heritage Art Collection. The posters are sold to benefit The National Motor Museum Trust. The National Motor Museum Trust Limited is a charitable organisation founded in 1972, which runs the National Motor Museum at Beaulieu. The Trust has a world famous collection of vehicles and associated motoring items, which have been designated by the Arts Council England as being of national and international importance. The Trust is committed to promoting education, research and conservation in motoring history for the benefit of everyone.

71 TENG-HIOK CHIU (CHOU TING-HSU) (CHINESE 1903-1972) THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA, 1931 signed and dated (lower left), oil on canvas 49cm x 62.5cm (19.25in x 24.6in) Literature: Huang, Michelle YingLing, Laurence Binyon: A Pioneering and Authoritative Curator of Chinese Painting in Early TwentiethCentury Britain, Museum History Journal, 8:1, January 2015, p.52, figure 4 (illustrated). Exhibited: Probably exhibited at The Fine Art Society, London, Teng-Hiok Chiu, 1936, no.37.

£6,000-8,000

Born in Xiamen, Fujian Provence in 1903 to a prestigious family, Teng-Hiok Chiu (Zhou Tingxu; also known as Teng Chiu, 1903–1972) had the opportunity to study abroad from a young age. By 1924 he had enrolled in the University of London, and in 1925 studied Western painting under the tutelage of Sir George Clausen, Sir Walter Russell and Charles Sims at the Royal Academy Schools. He became the first foreigner to be granted membership of the Royal Society of British Artists. Chiu also trained at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, and in Paris, but he reached the turning point in his career when working alongside his mentor Laurence Binyon, a renowned Oriental scholar, in the British Museum in 1930. Working together they analysed many significant Chinese calligraphic works and paintings and it was from this point onwards that Chiu fused Eastern and Western artistic ideas and philosophy, to produce works with Chinese sensibilities and Western technique. From 1930 Chiu travelled extensively through Europe, Africa and Asia, including his homeland Xiamen in China. During this trip he depicted the lakes and mountains of his native land, and important architecture and monuments including this significant work of The Great Wall. It is probable that this is the work that was exhibited in his one-man show at The Fine Art Society in London from 18 November to 4 December 1936 as No. 37. In the preface to the catalogue Binyon wrote: “Mr. Chiu has travelled over many parts of the world, in the East and in the West, and has developed an eclectic style, in which it seems to me that through all the mastered technique of Western oil-painting the original Chinese element becomes more apparent than in the pictures shown six years ago […] Mr. Chiu, […] like so many Oriental painters who practice the Western style, found it a heavy and unpleasing means of expression: he has subdued it to a lightness of handling and felicities of colour natural to his gift.” (See T. H. Chiu, An Exhibition of Paintings by Teng H. Chiu, A.R.B.A. (London: The Fine Art Society, 1936); ‘A Chinese Oil Painter’, The Times, 18 November 1936, p. 12.) This current work commemorates the shared experience of Binyon and Chiu in China, and can be considered a significant work in the development of Chiu’s oeuvre.

£600-800

Émile Jean Jules Friboulet, known as Jef Friboulet, was a prominent French painter and sculptor. Born in Fécamp in northern France on 11th November 1919, Friboulet showed early signs of being a talented artist and in 1939, he joined the French Air Force where he received the nickname ‘Jef’ from American soldiers who named him after the initials ‘E. J. F’ on his uniform. His skill as an artist was noticed by his superiors and he became an army artist, painting frescos in the cadet bedrooms and communal spaces.

Following the war, he became a chauffeur, which granted him access to the countryside where he continued painting. In 1954 he exhibited Le Jardinier in a Parisian exhibition and received such acclaim that he was able to focus full-time on his artistic practise – pushing him to open a large studio in his hometown where he welcomed many amateur and professional artists and also established an association to train young artists. He received numerous accolades during his career including the Prix de Monaco in 1950, the Prix d’Asnières in 1958, and the Prix de la Biennale de Cherbourg in 1964.

74 § JACOB BORNFRIEND (CZECH 1904-1976) THE VEGETABLE NET signed (lower left), oil on canvas 100cm x 49.5cm (39.3in x 19.5in) Provenance: Roland, Browse & Delbanco, London; Private Collection, UK. Exhibited: City of Bradford Art Gallery, 1967; Possibly at Brighton Art Gallery, 1968.

£2,000-3,000

Jacob Bornfriend, born Jakub Bauernfreund, was an important Expressionist artist of the twentieth century. Born in Czechoslovakia in 1904, Bornfriend studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague from 1930 until 1935, developing his signature expressionistic style using simplified lines and colours to create ambiguous, organic space. In 1939, he was forced to flee his homeland due to the Nazi occupation and came to London where he became part of a group of artists known as the Continental British School of Painting. This group of prolific artists included the likes of Oskar Kokoschka and Jankel Adler, and they exhibited widely across London, with Bornfriend receiving his first solo exhibition at the Roland, Browse & Delbanco Gallery in 1950. Although the group was not joined by stylistic similarities, an importance on representational art was often key in their works and Bornfriend’s experimentations with abstraction are of particular note during this period as he explored the importance of pattern and texture to produce a harmony of colour and space. This stylistic signature developed in the 1950s and 1960s as Bornfriend’s interest in the abstract grew and he focused on landscapes and still lifes. His interest in the passage of time and the changing seasons is evoked in the energetic sense in his works from this time, which is produced through modulating warm and cool tones in a simplified manner, much like artists such as Paul Cézanne. This is particularly apparent in works such as The Vegetable Net¸ in which the warm reds and pinks juxtapose against the cooling blues and greens to create emotional intensity.

99 GIO PONTI (ITALIAN 1891-1979) FOR RICHARD GINORI MONUMENTAL ANGELO VASE AND COVER, CIRCA 1930 designed 1925-26, stamped ‘Richard Ginori / 30-4’, porcelain 60cm high, 31.5cm wide (23 1/2in high, 12 1/2in wide) Literature: U. La Pietra, Gio Ponti, New York, 2009, p. 26 (for related designs); G. Celanti, Espressioni di Gio Ponti, exh. cat. Triennale Milan, 2011, p. 20, fig. 10 (for related designs); L.

£7,000-10,000

Gio Ponti was appointed artistic director of Richard Ginori from 1923 to 1930. Richard Ginori was formed in 1896 after the Ginori family business dating back to 1735 - with a factory located in Doccia near Florence was assimilated by the Società Ceramica Richard of Milan. Ponti’s role was to overhaul the business, which he did by introducing mass-production, but without sacrificing quality, and by creating new ranges. At the heart of his business was the belief in the relationship between art and industry and a desire to reinvigorate the Italian nation through great design. Inspiration came from the rich Italian heritage and was transposed into a modern aesthetic idiom that was graphic in manner using lines and varied tonality. The forms of his pieces were simple, and he kept the surfaces smooth and clean, though on occasion introduced some decorative features in relief. Decorative motifs were drawn from a wide range of sources including the ancient world and architecture that nurtured a strong sense of national identity. The designs have much in common with French Art Deco too in their use of stylised motifs, for example in the figure of Il Pellegrino (The Pilgrim). Ponti exhibited at the Paris Exposition Universelle des Arts Decoratifs of 1925 and in fact won a Grand Prix for his designs for Richard Ginori. This was the exhibition which gave rise to the name Art Deco as a style. The angel surmounting the cover was designed for the wedding anniversary of Ugo and Fernanda Ojetti in 1926 but was then re-introduced on Il Trionfo dell-Amore della Morte, a piece designed by Ponti and exhibited at the IV Triennale in Monza, 1930. A similar example of the vase was designed by Ponti in 1925 and then produced by Richard Ginori in 1929, but the cover featured two dancing figures.

104 GIO PONTI (ITALIAN 1891-1979) IMPORTANT DAYBED, 1927 Ferrara walnut, veneered walnut, gilt-metal 208cm long, 82.5cm high, 97cm deep (82in long, 32.5in high, 38in deep) Literature: U. La Pietra, Gio Ponti, New York, 1988, p. 8 (similar example illustrated); L. Falconi, Gio Ponti, Interni, Oggetti, Disegni, 1920-1977, Milan, 2005, p. 43 (similar example illustrated). This daybed is believed to be a unique piece and appears to be the example exhibited at the III Biennale of 1927. The piece demonstrates his fascination with classicism and simplicity, but in a contemporary modern manner. It very much aligns him with Novecento thinking in Italy at the time. Novecento was an artistic grouping founded in Milan, in 1922, with the objective of restoring the greatness of Italy by referring back to the glorious 1400 and 1500s. At this time Ponti was designing furniture with Il Labirinto - a group that included Tomaso Buzzi, Pietro Chiesa and Paolo Venini – who sought to create unique works from luxurious materials. As can be seen the daybed is opulent in its use of walnut and gilt-metal. It expressed the priorities of acknowledging the past whilst at the same time remaining innovative and progressive. These values were guiding principles in his work over the following decades.

127 GIANMARIA POTENZA (ITALIAN 1936) FOR LA MURRINA VASE, LATE 1960s pale yellow glass incorporating an iron red bullseye 35.5cm high (14in high) Gianmaria Potenza trained as an artist and sculptor and on occasion worked with both Gio Ponti and Franco Albini. In 1968 he founded La Murrina with Ulderico Moretti. The company was particularly recognised for its glassware although they also produced furniture, lighting and objects too. Potenza’s involvement with the company was shortlived and he left in 1975, so this piece dates from a very small window of time and demonstrates his ability to work within the Murano tradition but in a contemporary manner. His later career focussed primarily on interior decoration. We would like to thank Marc Heiremans for his assistance in cataloguing the current work.

£1,000-1,500 Preceding the Second World War, Peverelli trained at the Brera Academy, under the tutelage of the Futurist painter Carlo Carrà and the classically inspired artist Achille Funi. It was in these formative years that he showed his initial fascination with still lifes and notably the intimate tonal works of Giorgio Morandi. After siding openly with the resistance during the War, by the early 1950s he was one of the early protagonists of the Spacialist Movement led by Lucio Fontana. The movement advocated a rejection of the naturalistic appearance of art in favour of an art form that aimed to synthesize sound, colour, space, movement and time, often with a surrealist flavour and embracing the new discoveries in science and technology of the post war period. It is in this context, before he moved to Paris in 1957, that he produced a series of paintings (presumably including these two examples) that refer to the structures of nature and insect life seen through the microscope, reflecting a development of his own personal surrealist matrix that would profoundly influence his later work.

ARISTIDE MAILLOL By his fourth decade Malliol had, through a slightly circuitous route via painting and tapestry weaving, come to work almost exclusively as a sculptor; ultimately becoming one of the most significant figures within the genre at the turn of the 20th century. In the 1890s he worked initially on a smallscale, producing terracotta statuettes. Later his oeuvre evolved to encompass monumental works of bronze. Throughout, his style remained consistent and very distinctive. Focused on the female body, his work differed from his contemporary Rodin in that it was largely an exploration of form in itself, and not concerned with evoking a sense of realism, emotion or psychology. His pared back vision was both classical and modern; indeed, the relative minimalism of his work and stylistically heavy limbs of his figures would later inspire the practice of artists like Henry Moore who extrapolated this simplicity and solidity into the realms of abstraction. Lyon & Turnbull are delighted to offer ‘Baigneuse se coiffant’ for sale. Originally conceived in terracotta in 1898 it was then cast in bronze multiples. This work was one of several figurines purchased by influential collector, publisher and dealer Ambroise Yollard in 1902. It bears the artist’s initials on the base at the figure’s feet but, as was typical for a cast by Vollard, bears no foundry marks or edition number. A very good casting with lovely dark brown/ black patination, the piece has an interesting and significant provenance, having previously been in the collection of the late Lady Isobel Hay. Hay was the daughter of whisky magnate Sir Alexander Walker. She studied art alongside Henry Moore in the 1930s and was associated with the Bloomsbury Group. This sculpture featured in an auction at Phillips, Edinburgh in 1984, appearing alongside other works from Lady Hay’s collection including drawings by Henry Moore and Alberto Giacometti. It was purchased there by the late Glaswegian architect John Thompson, and has remained in the family’s collection until now. Further examples of the Baigneuse can be found in various major institutions including the Nationalgalerie Berlin, and a life-size version is situated in the gardens of the Louvre.

LEON UNDERWOOD: RHYTHM & MOVEMENT Leon Underwood was a significant figure in twentieth-century British sculpture, and a teacher who influenced generations of artists. His works can be seen in the Victoria & Albert Museum, Tate Britain, and the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford. While his reputation was eclipsed by those of his students Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth, Underwood can now be appreciated as a brilliant and versatile artist in a wide variety of media. Underwood trained as a painter at the Royal College of Art before the First World War, and at the Slade School of Art after demobilisation. It was only after the War that he started to work on sculpture. The human torso was a favourite subject in the early years of his sculptural practice: he carved female torsos in Tournai slate (1923), Mansfield sandstone (1923-24), Roman marble (c. 1925-30) and Ancaster stone (c. 1925-32). The running torso “Flux” (1924) was modelled in clay and cast in editions of brass and bronze. Metal allowed a more fluid composition, and made it easier to capture movement and gesture. During the 1930s Underwood gradually abandoned stone carving, and increasingly worked in bronze. “June of Youth” recalls his earlier torsos in stone, but the figure’s forward and upward movement exploit the properties of bronze sculpture. It has been suggested that the artist’s daughter Jean modelled for this piece, but that seems implausible: she was only a child when Underwood created this celebration of young womanhood. After selling a bronze “June of Youth” to the Tate Gallery in 1938, Underwood wrote to the director, John Rothenstein, “I always give ‘literary titles’ to my works”. A possible source for the title is Helen Keller, who used the phrase “the June of her youth” in her 1929 memoir Midstream; but the analogy between the months of the year and the stages of life is a common trope, and the sculptor need not have had a specific quotation in mind. Whatever its inspiration, “June of Youth” held a special place in its maker’s affections, and he depicted it in the background of a self-portrait painted in 1949. Underwood made just a handful of works in cast terracotta, but it was in this medium that “June of Youth” was first realised. The critic Eric Newton saw it in this form, and was deeply impressed. The terracotta “June of Youth” that we see here is numbered IV: the fourth from an edition of four. It is signed with Underwood’s usual signature (“Leon U”), and dated ’38. This must be the date of this specific cast, as a terracotta version was exhibited at the National Society of Painters, Sculptors, Engravers and Potters as early as 1933. The title is lightly inscribed, running up the outside of the left thigh. Incised circles mark the figure’s nipples and navel, with fine lines separating the abdominal muscles and defining the belly. Bronze, however, was probably the medium Underwood had in mind when he conceived this dynamic figure. There appear to have been seven bronzes cast, though Underwood’s numbering of his editions can be unreliable. The earliest casts date from no later than 1937; a final cast, inlaid with lines of silver, was made in 1969. The bronze offered here is not numbered or dated. The fact that it includes the figure’s chin and mouth might indicate that is an early – perhaps even the first – cast, as later casts end at the neck. The chased decoration, added by hand, makes it (as a label on the base states) “unique”. The nipples and navel are emphatically marked, as in the terracotta. The rest of the markings look like foliage – in keeping with the “June” of the title. However, a zig-zag line above the groin could be read either as an outline of the figure’s pubic hair, or as flames. On the latter reading, the shape immediately above it could be interpreted as a phoenix – a subject that Underwood evoked in his bronze “Phoenix for Europe” (begun in 1937). It was this cast of “June of Youth” that was illustrated in Christopher Neve’s 1974 book Leon Underwood. Ben Whitworth, April 2021

Having studied at the Slade in London in 1919, Leon Underwood went on to embark on a prolific career as a sculptor and painter, producing an important and an eclectic body of work. His travels through Mexico and West Africa had an important influence on his work, particularly in the representation of the human figure. Marina (1930) can be considered one of Underwood’s major Mexican paintings, and is closely related to Mestiza (1929) and Marina’s Remorse (1930). In 1928 Underwood travelled through Mexico, down the shore of the Gulf of Mexico, over the Sierra Madre to the Pacific coast with the author and travel writer Philip Russell, studying Aztec and Mayan art, whilst at the very height of the anti-Catholic persecutions.

The resulting book Red Tiger Adventures in Yucatan and Mexico with coloured linocut illustrations by Underwood was an idyllic and romantic representation of modern Mexico, but the trip provided him with significant material for his imagination for the following decade. On his return from Mexico in December 1928 he steadily produced engravings and paintings on Mexican themes, the most significant being a series of oil paintings depicting the heroes and villains of the conquest that were dramatized in an important series of oil paintings from 1929-30 including Marina. Her pose and general appearance derive from the Tehuana women of his illustrations, which would become an influential source for his work of the later 1930s and did not go unnoticed by Henry Moore and Frank Dobson who he associated with in the following years.

‘Edward Wolfe’s portrait of Pat Nelson...explores the experiences of people from diverse ethnic backgrounds in London’s art world between the wars. Nelson came to Britain in 1937 to work as a valet in Wales. In about 1938 he was studying law in London as well as working as an artist’s model for Wolfe and Duncan Grant. He became Duncan Grant’s lover in the late 1930s. Following the outbreak of the Second World War he enlisted with the Pioneer Corps, was posted to France with the British Expeditionary Force and was injured and captured near Dunkirk. He was held in various prison camps, including Stalag 344, until his release in late 1944. On his return he resumed his friendship with Duncan Grant, and they would write to each other over the next 25 years until Nelson’s death in 1963’. (A Model’s Life, Spaces of Black Modernism, Tate Britain)

‘Wolfe’s depiction of Nelson against the rich green background is exoticising and his pose invites the viewer to admire his body. Such objectification was typical of many depictions of black men from this time and reflects an uneven power dynamic, although Nelson’s friendship with members of the Bloomsbury group adds a level of complexity to the relationship between artist and sitter’.

Buckle noted that the mask of Meum ‘was one of three ‘Masks’ Epstein modelled between 1916 and 1918. The idea of making masks, that is, faces with no backs to them, was probably inspired by African sculpture’. (Buckle, p.94)

I have focused on the male because to me he is a subtle combination of sensuality and strength with vulnerability ELIZABETH FRINK

The male form was at the core of Elisabeth Frink’s sculptural practice. Having come from a younger generation so heavily smarted by the Second World War, she saw men’s nature as a root cause of war and the atrocities of warfare. Out of the war a new generation of sculptors had grown, the ‘Geometry of Fear’ group, which included Lynn Chadwick, Kenneth Armitage, Eduardo Paolozzi and Reg Butler – all of whom were concerned with the post-war condition of the human form, and it is within this context that her work Sentinel sits. Warriors, sentinels, and helmeted heads inhabit Frink’s oeuvre in the late 1950s into the 1960s, using the male form as an instrument to express both aggression and vulnerability, starkly contrasting with the traditional notion of man as the ideal hero. Frink was subverting the natural order by reverting the age-long tradition of the artistic male gaze on the female form.

LYNN CHADWICK (1914- 2003) is widely considered to be one of the most important British sculptors of the twentieth century, often heralded as the successor to Henry Moore. Born and raised in London, Chadwick did not have any formal art education and began to transfer his experience as an architectural draughtsman to his sculptures from the end of World War II, during which he served as a pilot. In 1956, a few years after he began to cast in his iconic bronze, Chadwick’s career received immense acclaim when he won the International Sculpture Prize at the Venice Biennale, surpassing the noted favourite Alberto Giacometti and becoming the youngest ever recipient of the prestigious prize. In 1971, he opened his own foundry at his estate at Lypiatt to produce small bronzes and jewellery. Known for his keenness to blur the lines between abstraction and figurative work, from 1973 we note a development in his bronze figures as they begin to be clothed in sumptuous drapery, adding a mysterious and elusive quality to them. These cloaked, figurative pieces became an important part of his oeuvre in the 1970s and into the 1980s and remain instantly recognisable, as he pushed the boundaries between abstraction and naturalism. Chadwick’s exploration of seated figures in the early 1970s, such as Sitting Couple from 1975, marks an important development in his work. Always a keen observer of human movement, his figures are more elongated and elegant as they become more erect, in contrast to his earlier works. In a book on the artist’s life, his wife Eva Chadwick discusses the importance of movement in his work with art historian Dennis Farr:

“Chadwick has always been intrigued by movement, either actual or implied, in his sculpture. From his early mobiles to his dancing Teddy Boy and Girl series of the 1950s to his cloaked walking women with windswept hair of the 1980s, he has explored figures in motion. Sometimes their cloaks and draperies flow out in the wind from behind them, or are caught by a gust and wrap themselves around the figures. This essentially lateral progression gives place to a vertical rhythm in his groups of, usually two, figures” (D. Farr & E. Chadwick, op. cit., 2006, p. 15). However, the importance of mass remained paramount to these groupings in the way in which the couple join to become one solid unit. Abstraction of form and elegant elongation is visible in works such as Standing Couple from 1980. The long, fluid cloaks which shroud the couple add to the visual sense of the figures joining as one, all the while maintaining Chadwick’s signature signifier of maleness (oblong head) and femaleness (triangular head), to contextualise the couple. Figures from this period of Chadwick’s work represent his artistic maturity and allow the viewer to import their own narrative onto these anonymous figures. Like the artist’s larger outdoor sculptures, the works offered here have an eminent presence and command the attention of those around them with their imposing form and mysterious essence.

MADE IN FIRE: A RENAISSANCE IN GLASS

The genesis of the studio glass movement is still relatively young, with its origins generally attributed to the US artist Harvey Littleton’s establishment of a workshop in the grounds of the Toledo Museum of Art in 1962. Proponents of this school aimed to move the production of glass from the industrial factories of the 19th and early 20th centuries to individual workshops, with styles such as etching and flame-working coming into use and a focus on the object as a work of art becoming of paramount importance. Since then the field has grown exponentially to become a revered and much-collected art form. The press, critical acclaim and promotion through noteable galleries and museums, have all helped to create a market with far-reaching audiences. The present collection, put together by an international collector in the 1990s, reflects the new and exciting techniques and developments of this movement, and includes works by leading exponents in this field such as Lino Tagliapietra, Dale Chihuly, Yoichi Ohira, Toots Zynsky, William Morris and Bertil Vallien. To many in the field of studio glass the name Lino Tagliapietra epitomises everything that great glass design stands for. Tagliapietra was one of a handful of glass artists who helped to elevate the position of glass to a ‘fine art’ form, with his work now sitting in many

of the leading museums in the world including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, the Victoria and Albert Museum, London and the Musée des Arts Decoratifs, Paris. At the heart of the collection is a striking group of 14 works by Tagliapietra that reflect many of the innovations, skills, colour and elegance of his glass from the height of his career. Born in Murano, Italy in 1934, Tagliapietra apprenticed under the glass maestro Archimede Seguso and by his early twenties was himself awarded the prestigious title of maestro vetraio (master glassmaker). He spent the following 30 years working alongside many of the leading glass manufacturer’s in Murano, such as Venini & C., Vetreia Galliano Feria and Effetre International (where he worked as Artistic and Technical Director from 1976 to 1989) before pursuing his path as a studio artist from the late 1970s. He continuously evolvied and expanded his repertoire to include experimentation with “carving, blowing, caning, layering, casing, and trailing along with the elaborate Italian tricks so sought after for centuries: battuto, zanfirico, filigrano, reticello, pulegoso, martelé, inciso and incalmo...” (Matthew Kangas, Lino Tagliapietra: Birth of a Genius)


113

However, his greatest influence was his dissemination of ideas on glass blowing, as the curator of the Corning Museum of Glass. Tina Oldknow summarises: “Today, artists from around the world use a Venetian glass vocabulary to make work that would never, ever be produced in Venice, and the dissemination of this remarkably creative and vibrant craft language may be Lino’s most important legacy. Lino came to America to discover what there might be here for him and to teach others to work glass. In the process, he helped to pioneer an industry – not for commerce, but for art.” It is perhaps no wonder that his contemporary Dale Chihuly referred to Tagliapietra as “the greatest glassblower in the world”. From their early meetings in the late 1960s they disseminated ideas, shared techniques and throughout their careers they worked together on a number of projects. Both of Chihuly’s works in this exhibition and auction, Sea Form (1985) and Baskets (1992), show the influence of the American glass blowing movement together with Italian techniques.

Chihuly himself is considered to be one of America’s most prominent international glass artists, best known for his largescale installations and environmentalist artworks. Initially studying under Harvey Littleton, Chihuly went on to study at the Rhode Island School of Design, and then worked at the Venini factory on the Italian island of Murano. Chihuly now has large permanent installations in important international institutions such as the rotunda chandelier at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, and the Rainbow Room frieze in the Rockefeller Center in New. He has influenced, taught and inspired a whole generation of glass artists including William Morris and Toots Zynsky. The work of Morris, who worked for Chihuly during the late 1970s and early 1980s, is represented in the collection with Artifact Tooth from the mid-1990s. Often inspired by ancient civilisations, Morris’ works of art act as records of humankind and focus on glass’ ability to transform. There are also blasts of colour with highly collectable works from Zynsky, best known for heatformed vessels in unique colourways; rare collaborative works by Tagliapietra, Zynsky and Alfred De Credico, and distinctive stylistic blends in two works by the Japanese artist Yoichi Ohira.

The collection concludes with a number of unique works by Bertil Vallien, considered to be Sweden’s most famous glass artist, that take you into a mystical, deeply symbolic and dreamlike world of motifs, with each piece being considered by the artist as an investigation. Like Tagliapietra, he is highly acclaimed in his field, most famous as an expert sand caster, and has received numerous awards including the Prince Eugen Medal for outstanding artistic achievement. Created by some of the most gifted, influential and innovative glass artists of the contemporary movement, this personal group of works charts the evolution of the field and inspires the mind with its exploration of the treatment of modern-day glass.

Inspired by her love of music and dance, vessels created by glass artist Toots Zynsky are harmonious expressions of melodic colour combinations. Born in 1951 in Massachusetts,Zynsky studied fine art at the Rhode Island School of Design where she was taught by Dale Chihuly. Following this, in 1971 she and some other classmates were invited by Chihuly to Washington where she participated in the development of the Pilchuk Glass School. After spending many years working and developing her craft in Europe and Africa, she returned to the United States in 1999, where she settled in Providence Rhode Island, where she lives and works today.

Her works in glass are created using a distinctive filet de verre or glass thread technique, which pulls fine threads of coloured glass together to create unique pieces that appear almost organic, and demonstrate the hybrid nature of glass as a medium. She has received many important commissions including designing the Olympic torch for the 2002 Paralympic Winter Games, and was awarded the Smithsonian Visionary Award in 2015.

Much of the inspiration behind the work of prominent American sculptor Steve Tobin comes from the natural world. Born in Pennsylvania, where he currently works from his studio and foundry, Tobin’s work is often monumental in scale and immediately recognisable. His work in glass is particularly important within the context of contemporary studio glass, creating cocoons which were hung in the St Augustine Chapel in Antwerp in 1990, and also a “waterfall” in the Retretti art museum in Finland in 1993. Tobin has exhibited widely internationally, and his work is held in important collections such as the Museum of Glass in Washington, the Musee des Arts Décoratifs in Switzerland, and also the White House collection in Washington D. C.

The works of internationally acclaimed glass artist Richard Jolley are instantly recognisable for their expressive and eye-catching, almost dreamlike, forms. Born in Kansas in 1952, Jolley moved to Tennessee in his youth where he began his formal education at Tusculum College under Michael Taylor. Today, Jolley continues to live and work in Tennessee, where he built a glass studio in 1975. His interest in the human condition is evident in his work, with natural forms and figurative works with an almost caricatural abstraction being a key identifier of Jolley’s pieces. He has received several awards including the Tennessee “Governor’s Distinguished Artist Award” in 2007, becoming the youngest ever visual artist to receive this accolade. Jolley has also received numerous important commissions including his monumental sculpture in the Great Hall of the Knoxville Museum of Art, which is one of the largest glass-and-steel assemblages in the world.

Bertil Vallien, considered to be Sweden’s most famous glass artist, was born in a small suburb to the north of Stockholm in 1938. Vallien was encouraged by a schoolteacher to pursue an arts education and he began attending evening classes at the Konstfack School of Arts, Crafts and Design in Stockholm. At the age of 27, he began a two-year foundation course at the Konstfack’s ceramics department and decided to pursue the arts full-time after completing his military service. Following this, he moved to Los Angeles and joined the HAL Fromholt Ceramics company that sought a young Swedish designer. It was here that Vallien began to design new models and had his own studio where he could focus on his personal practise too. Frequently deeply symbolic, he considers each piece as an investigation into specific themes with objects often filled with motifs and metaphors, transferring his dreamlike world into his art. Vallien later returned to Sweden to work as a designer at the Afors glass factory. Vallien is highly acclaimed in his field and has received numerous awards including the Prince Eugen Medal for outstanding artistic achievement in 1995 and the Visionaries Award from the American Craft Museum in 2001. His work can be found in important institutions internationally such as the Victoria & Albert Museum in London and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

Sink through memories and dreams. I make boats that do not need latitudes, they navigate like glazed vessels toward the horizons of the imagination. One container for Moses and one for the Viking chief. The traveler must rely on the thin skin which is the only thing that separates her from the unknown. The boat has always fascinated me, for its beautiful shape and what it means: life, adventure, travel, birth and death. A symbol that belongs to our collective consciousness. We all have a respectful relationship with the boat. The fisherman in the archipelago does not chop his old tired boat into firewood; when she is no longer able to sail, she is allowed to rest in peace and slowly nurture the new boats. I understand that the most crude sailor with respect and reverence calls his life insurance and craft for She. A life-giving mother to trust when society is separated from the land.” (Bertil Vallien)

BELOVED BRITISH ARTISTS: WORKS BY MARY FEDDEN & JULIAN TREVEYLAN

Fedden first met Trevelyan when she was a student at the Slade in the 1930s, and (although he was husband to the potter Ursula Darwin) had declared on the spot she knew he was the man she would marry – something that proved correct in 1951. They remained the closest of companions for the next 40 years, pursuing their artistic endeavours from Durham Wharf in Hammersmith - a house and studio on the banks of the Thames that Trevelyan had bought in 1935. The forthcoming works from four different private collections include early pictures by both artists. Trevelyan’s The River Thames Flooded at Chiswick was painted in 1945, shortly after the artist was demobbed from the Royal Engineers. He had spent much of the Second World War serving in North Africa and Palestine as a Camouflage Officer, becoming an expert in desert camouflage and deception. The Thames was a constant source of inspiration to Trevelyan, and is reflected in Barges at Durham Wharf, Hammersmith from 1963. He wrote in 1957 (Indigo Days): “Here [at Durham Wharf] … I put down my tap-root; My life was measured by its tides, and my dreams were peopled by its swans and seagulls. It has become the backcloth to all my various activities and has remained so ever since.” Mary Fedden’s historically significant Fisherwomen was completed in 1947 - the year of her first ever solo exhibition showing still-life and flower paintings at the Mansard Gallery in the department store, Heal’s. After the War (when she served in the Land Army and as a driver for the NAAFI in France), she had returned to London to work as a full-time artist, receiving a commission to create cover designs for Woman magazine. She featured in one-person shows at venues throughout the UK every year until her death in 2012 by which time she had achieved ‘national treasure’ status. Although the couple travelled widely in Europe, Africa, India, Russia and America they typically worked together in different corners of a shared studio. Fedden’s work often referenced their lives together through the use of personal objects from their home or by incorporating rejected fragments of Trevelyan’s etchings in her collages. Within this collection are two mature Fedden oils from 1975 titled Julian’s Mug and The Etching Table. The group ends with two particularly poignant gouache works by Fedden from 1988, the year of Trevelyan’s death. One titled Trevelyan with Dog depicts her husband alone with a family pet, the other with only a woman and dog on a beach.

£6,000-8,000 Having returned to London in 1946, after the war, Mary Fedden began to paint with a new seriousness, developing her own individual style that owed considerable influence to Russian and French modernists. By 1947, the same year as this painting, she held her first oneperson exhibition at The Mansard Gallery in Heal’s Department Store. Landscape paintings of this period by Fedden appear rarely, and the current work is perhaps closest to Distress Signal that appears to depict the same coastal village on a stormy evening. These early works mixed her Slade School training, with their low-key colours and emphasis on fact, with an increasing sense of pattern and form that would become a signature characteristic of her more mature work.

390 § BOB LAW (BRITISH 1934-2004) FREE STANDING TABLE SCULPTURE, WOODEN OBELISK

Bob Law (1934-2004) was considered a founding father of British Minimalism in painting and sculpture, concerning himself with the ideas of the significance and legitimacy of abstract art throughout his artistic lifetime. Born in Middlesex in 1934, Law moved to St. Ives in 1957 where he was taught pottery by Bernard and Janet Leach, whilst also coming under the influence of Ben Nicholson and Peter Lanyon, before moving away from Cornwall in 1960. Inspired by the landscape, he started producing works focussed on a simple outline around the perimeter of the paper, leading to a minimalist exploration of forms, lines and shapes. Law was further impelled in this direction by the seminal exhibition The New American Painting at Tate in 1959 that introduced Abstract Expressionism to the British public. Particularly notable for Law was his discovery of the abstract paintings of Barnett Newman and Mark Rothko.

titled in pencil, pencil on paper 16.5cm x 35.5cm (6.5in x 14in) Provenance: Karsten Schubert Ltd., London; Richard Salmon Gallery, London.

£1,500-2,000

He created 10 large black canvases for an exhibition at Modern Art Oxford in 1974, at the invitation of the then director Nicholas Serota, who went on to show Law again at London’s Whitechapel Gallery in 1978. This small collection of work reflects two points in Law’s career in the mid-1960s and 1980s. They exhibit his minimalist approach, hints of St Ives and his explorations into sculpture in the 1970s which expanded his oeuvre.

PAOLOZZI.10.10’ (to front of base), bronze with gold patina and steel chain 39.5cm high (15.5in high) (including the base) Provenance: Private Collection, Canada; Christie’s, London, 23 October 1996, Lot 58; Bonham’s, London, 20 November 2013, Lot 90. Literature: Winfried Konnertz, Eduardo Paolozzi, DuMont, Cologne, 1984, p.183, cat. no.341 (another cast ill.b&w); Fiona Pearson, Paolozzi, National Galleries of Scotland, Edinburgh, 1999, p.51, cat.no.57 (another cast col.ill).

£10,000-15,000

By 1970, Eduardo Paolozzi was distancing himself from the ‘Pop Art’ label, feeling it conjured up images of ‘diving into a barrel of Coca-Cola bottles.’ He was engaging with darker subject matter in a way that he felt extended the tradition of Surrealism. Close friends with the science-fiction writer J.G. Ballard, both men had a particular fascination with car crashes, with Ballard specifying that he was interested in the modern day engagement with violence, which mainly took place in the mind, rather then in our physical responses. He felt the car crash was often the one act of violence that the modern day person would physically experience in their life, and even this dramatic impact is between two machines. Interestingly, a shining symbol of modern success and achievement, the car, becomes a destructive and dangerous force in our lives, dream turns nightmare.

Crash Head was produced for Paolozzi’s Tate retrospective in 1971. Eduardo was particularly interested in technology and man’s relationship with machines, often fusing human and machinery elements. In Crash Head, he uses the head of a safety test dummy as a model and then applies machine elements; a chunky chain affixed to the head and Frankenstein-esque bolts to the neck. His choice of the model used in car safety testing and demonstrations is a direct engagement with the idea of the violence a car can inflict and an explicit set-up of man versus machine. Yet the quality of the materials, attractive contrasting silver and bronze colours and sleek finish of the sculpture belie these darker undercurrents. The sculpture was produced in an edition of ten. There is one in the National Galleries of Scotland collection, bequeathed by Gabrielle Keiller in 1995, and another is held in the collection of the Stirling Smith Art Gallery & Museum, gifted by The Scottish Arts Council in 1988.

Born in Lancashire in 1952, British sculptor Paul Mason was most well-known for his work in stone and marble. Often inspired by natural carving and geology, his work attempted to emulate these forces in an artistically sculptural manner that remains true to their materials. Mason studied under several Royal Academicians such as John Paddison, before attending the Academy Schools himself. He then went on to receive many important public commissions, gaining early acclaim for his commissioned piece for Harlow New Town in Essex, commissioned by Sir Freddie Gibberd in 1977. Mason exhibited widely across the UK and Europe including the Tate Gallery in St Ives and the Bauhaus Kunst-Archiv in Berlin, and was the winner of the Royal Academy Gold Medal in 1976.

Initially trained in South Korea in the classical tradition of European sculpture, Meekyoung Shin subsequently moved to London and was drawn to the processes of ‘translation’ undertaken by objects representing a particular culture which have been subject to a shift in location. These works were exhibited at the important exhibition of her work in 2011 at Haunch of Venison which included a number of significant installations from Shin’s ‘Translation’ project, in which virtuoso facsimiles of Chinese porcelain and Western classical sculpture were reinterpreted in soap. They appear quintessentially Chinese, but in fact the work they reference was solely created for a European and later an American market, and had little to do with Chinese life.

The work of Abel Seguin respects the physicality of exposed and gnarled roots, fallen timbers, and petrified and fossilised boles. Each of his coffee tables, seating and sculptures reflects the ravages of time and climate that form his raw materials and are filtered and contained by his sensitive interventions.

Geo-consciousness is a characteristic at the core of his concept and vision. Contributing in his own way to the preservation craft traditions, the effects of nature on wood and metal combine in works of ‘a terrible beauty’. His tables, screens, and abstract sculpture resound with the strength inherent in the reclaimed, ancient wood sensitively worked with local tools and resulting in unique constructions of exceptional presence.

Zhang Zhoujie is best known for his fantastical works derived from the digital world that bring to mind galactic exploration. He obtained a degree in Industrial Design at the China Academy of Art, before receiving a Masters degree in Industrial Design at Central Saint Martins in London. On returning to China, Zhoujie focused on exploring new design methods applying innovative digital technology to produce steel designs painstakingly cut, welded and polished by hand, resulting in finished works reminiscent of the geodesic domes of architect R. Buckminster Fuller. His work has been exhibited extensively around the world, including noted museums, as well as appearing in mainstream media such as Wallpaper, Vogue and the New York Times.

While Betjeman’s commentary is amused, it is also politely reminding viewers that they need to drive slowly and that a true appreciation of Britain means getting out of their cars and walking. There was a class basis to Betjeman’s advice: the idea that real encounters with the countryside demand time and that rushing was uncultured was part of a wider belief that Catherine Brace has dubbed ‘the moral geography of speed’, an idea that elided expectations about the proper behaviour of motorists with the practice of good citizenship.41 At a less elevated level, Betjeman’s advice simply recognises that the explosion of motor-car ownership since the inter-war period consequently increased levels of congestion. You might as well embrace the reality of longer journeys.

the act of driving from an understanding of the immediate terrain: listening offered an escape from a monotonous tunnel-like landscape. Here the Shell Sound Guides worked to help drivers maintain an emotional alertness. Writers and historians have developed many ideas to explain the enduring popularity of Betjeman’s and Piper’s Shell Guides. The guides are often made to sit alongside Penguin books, Ealing cinema, and the music of Edward Elgar as repositories of a certain kind of mid-century Englishness, if not Britishness. (Scotland is represented relatively poorly by the guides.) Their development is also seen to correlate with post-war

impressive variety and quality that took the Shell image all over Britain. Shell certainly contributed to the pastoral ruralism that seemed to engulf British art in the 1930s, but its own artistic commissions were suddenly taking on a much broader and more interesting range of styles that would see its posters acclaimed as some of the best commercial advertising in the country.33 This change can be attributed almost entirely to the appointment of a new advertising manager at Shell in 1929 who was determined to do things differently: Jack Beddington.

to make sympathetic records in watercolour of vulnerable British buildings, landscapes and livelihoods at a time of impending change. Meanwhile the talents of graphic designers such as Austin Cooper, Tom Eckersley, Hans Schleger and Abram Games were pressed into the service of crucial wartime propaganda. In fact, Beddington’s support for Games, whom he had commissioned before the war, was instrumental in his becoming official War Poster Artist in 1942, in which position he created over one hundred striking posters encouraging the civilian

drivers’.42 Both of these functions were served by the Shell Sound Guides, a sporadic spoken-word guide of where to go, when to park, and what you were seeing. These were functions that were supposed to calm and quieten passengers. Alternatively, the audio guides overlaid what people saw out of the car window with narration provided by the actor Richard Bebb and the BBC radio announcer Ronald Fletcher. The Shell Sound Guide to A Day on Dartmoor, for instance, featured snippets like ‘sporting news’, ‘mechanical music’, and short scores with titles such as Alla Mozart, Sweet Elegance and Fields of Green. This music was apparently produced in the style of a silent film score. The development of motorways further entrenched the importance of listening in cars as the construction of these flat, wide roads decoupled

large number were invited to become official war artists by the War Artists Advisory Committee under the guidance of Kenneth Clark – including Ardizzone, Armstrong, Bawden, Freedman, Grant, Nash, Ravilious, Rosoman, Sutherland and Weight. An equally impressive number were among the great roll call of artists commissioned to make works for the Recording Britain series.

innovative work for the London Underground and the main line railway companies, such as Tom Purvis,32 Charles Paine and Verney L. Danvers. Aviation exploration records set by both individual pilots and the growing commercial routes of Imperial Airways, established as the British national carrier in 1924, were increasingly publicised, while in 1929 even a more conventional poster artist like William Dacres Adams produced a dramatic view of Croydon Airport that gave the impressive technology of the latest Imperial airliners a style they had never had before. By the late 1920s the lorry bills were starting to provide

The launch of the audio Shell Sound Guides on 8-track magnetic tape and then audio cassette reflected further changes in the British experience of motoring. During the earliest days of motoring drivers were encouraged to listen to their cars to detect issues like ‘knocking’, the noises made by a misfiring car engine. However, as reliability improved and with the advent of the closed-bodied car and the in-car radio, ideas about what motorists should listen to and how evolved. Initially it was feared that listening to music would be distracting, and motorists were encouraged to listen to music only when they had safely parked. However, over time listening came to be understood as a useful mental prosthetic because it both prevented drivers from day dreaming and helped passengers to relax – thereby reducing the irritations caused by ‘backseat

population to become part of the war effort. As Scott Anthony reveals in Chapter 3, the art and advertising of Shell-Mex and BP evolved during the post-war period in ways that responded to environmental, economic and cultural change. Among the driving forces were evolving attitudes to nature and the land, as modern farming practices built on the rationalisation of agriculture during the war years. Shell’s pre-war projection of the countryside as a heritage amenity attainable thanks to Shell’s motoring products would develop into publicity promoting its

oil as an essential component of rural modernisation. The company also adopted an increasingly marketorientated approach to publicity and public relations. In terms of advertising practice, the Creative Revolution pioneered in the USA during the late 1950s brought about a change, with copywriters and art directors now formed into teams of creative equals to come up with original concepts expressed in a fresh and striking visual language. This was usually characterised by arresting photographic imagery accompanied by short, witty copy.

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.

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.

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.

(a) Lots affixed with (†): Value Added Tax on the Hammer Price and Buyer’s Premium 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 UK and is not operating under a Margin Scheme. (b) Lots affixed with (‡): A reduced rate of Import Value Added Tax on the Hammer Price of 5% is payable. This indicates that a Lot has been imported from outwit the UK.

This applies to items that have been imported from outwit the UK and do not fall within the reduced rate category.

The buyer should also note that the appropriate rate will be that in force on the date of our release and not that in force at the date of auction or payment. (e) Export from the UK: For lots offered

under the VAT Margin Scheme and lots with [Ω] or ‡ symbols attached; you may be eligible to have a VAT refund in certain circumstances if the lot is exported.

Please also note that all customs formalities of the destination country are the responsibility of the buyer. 3. A RTIST’S RESALE ROYALTY (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.
