Robert Johnson Washington (1913-1997)

Nestled in a rural idyll of rolling woodland, there is a studio that belonged to Robert Johnson Washington (1913-1997), where the artist and potter lived and worked. Walking into the studio today, it’s almost as if he had just walked out the door, and pots, tools and the detritus of activity is everywhere. Sworders were approached this summer, under the instruction of the Washington Foundation, to sell works from Robert (and also his father, William). Our first visit was like walking into a labyrinth of his life’s work - unfinished pots, test glaze pieces stuck to the walls, brushes and paint loosely tossed into jars, found objects and cut-out pictures pinned to the walls - it was daunting and awe-inspiring at the same time. Robert (Bob) was born in South-East London and, proving to be a promising artist, like his father, he joined Goldsmiths’ College in 1930 to study painting before moving on to the Royal College of Art. After three years in the painting school, he moved to the pottery department which was headed by William Staite Murray (1881-1962), one of the leading studio potters in Britain, who influenced Robert in his belief in pottery as fine art. Bob continued to promote this all his working life. He was also taught the practical aspects of pottery and glazing by Dora Billington (1890-1968), at the Central School of Art and Crafts, who had come from a family of potters and had worked within the pottery industry. In 1939, Robert married Marjorie Terry, then a highly successful textile designer, and it was also that year that he went to teach at Derby School of Art. This, however, was interrupted by his war service when he became an instructor to the builders of aircraft, a task which called on his understanding of modern engineering, as well as his ability to pass on information with clarity and imagination. After the war, he resumed teaching ceramics at Derby, then Margate Schools of Art. He also maintained his own studio, producing pots under the clear influence of Murray, but with his own idiosyncratic interpretation of the figure. In 1949, he was appointed Her Majesty’s Art Inspector for Essex and supporting teachers, building up art and pottery departments, and developing education schemes, took much of his creative drive and few pots were made.

It was Robert’s retirement in 1979 that brought fresh opportunities and a renaissance in his work with clay. He was ever alert to new developments within ceramics. At this time, he was best known for his impressive tall, thrown bottle forms with a strong anthropomorphic element, an impression heightened by his use of spiky painted decoration depicting religious or mythical figures which seemed to be engaging with the pot, giving the work the added edge of surrealism. Despite his continuing doubts about his skills as a draughtsman, these pieces - monumental and commanding - remain some of his most effective forms. Contact was re-established with galleries and, in a solo exhibition at Anatol Orient Gallery in London in 1988, he made a comeback with a series of new work consisting of large platters, which were inventive in both their imagery and surface treatment. Work was also shown at Paul Rice, London. A new relationship with a young ceramic student, Su Lupasco, stimulated his experimental approach to clay, leading him to investigate cratered and textured glazes and to integrate such effects into his ceramics. One of Washington’s major contributions to ceramics was to continue the fight for its recognition as fine art and it would have been interesting to see how he would have developed his talents had he devoted his life to ceramics. With a great deal of enthusiasm, creativity, and imagination side-tracked into education, much of his work has often been seen as over-influenced by Murray. This similarity is superficial, for Washington’s forms are imbued with their own powerful personality, which is both sculpturally aware and assertive of the character of their maker.

Influenced by William Staite Murray (1881-1962) while at the Royal College of Art, Robert began to see himself as an artist first and foremost. The ceramic works were thrown beautifully, with a vertical appearance and with the painting on them as important as the pot - a truly three-dimensional work of art. His work changed little over the course of the next fifty years, as his life as an educationalist took his time and energy. ‘In the middle of the 80s I think I began to get where I wanted to be, where the shapes began to move in and out, into and out, rather than sitting on the surface.’ All the early pots are stoneware and decorated in underglaze red iron oxide and fired at 1280°C in a reduced or oxidised electric or gas kiln.

Stoneware Platters (1986-1989) & Panel Reliefs (mid-1980s) 42-49 In the mid 1980s, Washington pushed his ideas of working with clay to a breaking point. He commenced working on thrown platters which he allowed to split and break and tear. He ‘cut them, scratched and dented the works and he added metal, fibreglass and broken metals’. There are three types of platters: type 1 - with folded and lifted edges; type 2 - with raised and cut edges; type 3 - with thrown edges. In the kiln, he ‘overrode’ his knowledge of chemistry to see what happened when the material was used wrongly, and in reduced firing to see what it produced. Some of the wall platters are wheel thrown or made on a slabber in stoneware clay. The decoration includes slips and engobes, other clays and enamels - also anything that withstood the oxidising kiln fire. The firings vary from 1260°C down to 800°C and were multi-fired - usually three or four times. The panel reliefs were a development from Bob’s stoneware platters. He wanted to find materials that avoided the limitations of the stoneware. ‘Anything goes that stands the kiln, whether it be metal, ceramic, thread, blanket or paper’. These are of a mixture of ceramic fibre and silica fired to a semi-molten state. Each was then decorated with engobes, underglaze colours, enamels and any material that withstood the kiln fire and multi-firings. The progression to these lighter panels was one of practicality - the larger stoneware platters were too large and heavy to move.

Lot 119 Koloman Moser (1868-1918), a highback chair, c.1902, produced by Prag-Rudniker Korbwarenfabrik, Austria, elm, with woven wicker back sections and seat, 43cm wide 42cm deep 125cm high, seat 45cm high £2,000 - 3,000 The design of this chair is a prime example of the artistic achievements of the Vienna Secession movement. Designed in 1902 by one of its leading founding members, the painter Koloman Moser, it stands for the Secession’s quest to create - and its postulation of - a modern, Austrian style fitting to the needs of a self-conscious bourgeoisie. Central to achieving this goal for modern needs, was doing away with the reuse of all historic styles, as well as reforming the negative impact of ersatz materials and techniques on industrial production. All of these were seen as dishonest and therefore responsible for a general decline in taste. In the course of their teachings at the Vienna School of Applied Arts, Moser and Josef Hoffmann busied their students, among other things, in providing modern designs for the wickerwork factory of Prag-Rudniker. In 1903, Das Interieur published a whole series of those designs, among them Moser’s chair and the accompanying armchair model. By 1904, their products were internationally renowned and ‘The Studio’ devoted a whole article to modern Austrian wicker furniture. In accordance with the Secessionists’ belief that the development of a modern style is not the result of a complete break with the past, but instead a necessary need to reconnect with a sense of quality that had gone missing during the industrial revolution, Moser’s design is basically a modern reinterpretation of a traditional 18th century ladder-back chair. He eliminates any decorative detailing (such as, for example, turned elements) in favour of simple geometric forms. Thus the cross sections of the stiles are square, and those of the cross stretchers on the back of the chair, are round. The lone decorative element is introduced via the chequerboard-like grid of the webbing on the seat and the back of the chair. While the horizontal webbing on the seat produces a solid surface, the chequerboard pattern of the back is achieved through a staggering of solid and empty rectangles. This allows for a transparency necessary to balance the extreme height of the back of the chair with its seat. By playing off extremes against each other, the painter, Moser, makes a departure from the security of established norms to embrace the realm of individual creativity. In its simplicity, therefore, this chair speaks with a strong voice. Very few examples of this model survive. What makes it even more rare is the dignity of its original condition.

AESTHETIC, ART NOUVEAU AND ARTS AND CRAFTS 81-234 Lot 208 *Wilhelmina Geddes (1887-1955), Faith, Hope and Charity, a stained glass window, from St Paul’s Church, St John’s Hill Battersea, and made by Charles F Blakeman (1907-1989), with three two-part tracery panels, a quatrefoil panel and four spandrels, inscribed ‘This window was designed by the late W. M. Geddes and made by C. F. Blakeman, 1956’, also with cleaning instructions, lower panels 52cm wide, 42cm high central panel 52cm wide, 80cm high side panels 52cm wide, 95cm high central roundel 32cm wide, 33cm high two triangular larger 26 x 19cm two triangular smaller 21 x 11.5cm (11) £8,000 - 12,000

Wilhelmina Geddes (1887-1955) Ulster-born Wilhelmina Geddes is widely regarded as one of the outstanding designers and makers of stained glass working in the first half of the twentieth century. Trained at Belfast Art School and the Metropolitan College of Art in Dublin, Geddes absorbed the expressive and technical principles of the Arts & Crafts Movement, translating these into a uniquely powerful personal idiom. Some of her earliest work was shown at the important Exhibition of British and Irish Decorative Arts at the Louvre, Paris, in 1914. Subsequently she was given the prestigious commission for a war memorial window (1919) in the Governor-General’s Church (St Bartholomew’s) in Ottawa. Made at the ‘Tower of Glass’ studio in Dublin, it was exhibited to great acclaim in London before its installation in Canada. Moving to London in 1925, she thereafter worked at the renowned ‘Glass House’ studios (Messrs Lowndes & Drury) in Fulham, London. Amongst the commissions she completed in the inter-war period, were windows for churches at Laleham in Middlesex (1926), Northchapel in Sussex (1930), Otterden in Kent (1933) and for St Martin’s Cathedral at Ypres, Belgium (1938). These and other works profoundly impressed younger artists such as Evie Hone and John Piper. The 3-light window depicting Virtues (Faith, Hope and Charity) was commissioned by the Rev. Chad Varah, a radical Anglican priest (and future founder of the Samaritans) who had been appointed rector of St Paul’s Church, St John’s Hill, Battersea (near Clapham Junction) in 1949. Intent on restoring and embellishing the church after war damage, Varah had contacted John Piper, seeking a recommendation for a modern stained glass artist. He was advised to contact Geddes who, despite poor health and struggling with work on two other commissions for London suburban churches – All Hallows, Greenford (1951-2) and St Mildred’s, Lee (1953-4) – agreed to make a design. By now, Geddes’ style had evolved into a remarkably distilled form of monumental expressionism, which was quite unique in British stained glass and which entailed subtle choices of coloured glass and intricate craft processes in the glass-painting. With the assistance of two young craftsmen, Donald Drury and Charles Blakeman, Geddes was able to finish the windows for Greenford and Lee, but her deteriorating eyesight and other ailments made it impossible for her to complete the full-size working cartoons for Battersea. After collapsing in the street and being admitted to St Pancras Hospital, Wilhelmina Geddes died, aged 68, on 10 August 1955. It was decided that the Battersea window, Geddes’ final commission, should be completed from the artist’s designs by Charles Blakeman, who was also working at the Fulham Glass House. Blakeman admired Geddes’ work immensely, having closely observed her design and craft techniques as she carried out her Greenford and Lee projects, and he was determined to do justice to her ideas for the window. The artist’s biographer, the late Dr Nicola Gordon Bowe, recorded that by ‘using Geddes’s sketches and cartoons, however illegible, Blakeman was able to adhere to her designs relatively faithfully while still producing a window clearly his own’. The window was finally unveiled in 1956, when it was seen by Rev. Chad Varah, who was ‘highly impressed’ by it. The window depicts Faith, Hope and Charity as three female angelic figures, whose seated forms fill each lancet. At the base of the window are two of the Evangelists and, in the centre, a scene of the Annunciation. Above the figure of Faith is a vignette of St Thomas and Christ, while Hope holds a miniature scene of Noah’s Ark and above Charity is a figure of St Mary Magdalene. The upper tracery lights contain depictions of the Moon and Sun with, in the centre, the Christ Child. An inscription in the right-hand light records that ‘THIS WINDOW WAS DESIGNED BY THE LATE W. M. GEDDES AND MADE BY C. BLAKEMAN 1956’. When St Paul’s church was amalgamated with another parish in the 1970s, the Geddes-Blakeman window was obscured by internal alterations to the building and was effectively inaccessible. The church was finally declared redundant in recent years and later converted to housing. As part of the structural alterations, the stained glass window was removed.

Lot 209 William De Morgan (1839-1917), The Archangel St Michael, a rare stained glass panel, c.1870, 67cm wide 97cm high £80,000 - 120,000 Exhibited: London International Exhibition 1871. Although William De Morgan is renowned for his work in ceramics, some of his earliest work was in the medium of stained glass. Having trained as a painter at the Royal Academy Schools (1859-c.1862), where his fellow students included the artists Simeon Solomon and Henry Holiday, he was introduced by the latter to William Morris. Having visited the workshops of Morris, Marshall, Faulkner & Company (then in Red Lion Square, London) and seeing the range of decorative work being produced by ‘The Firm’, De Morgan was increasingly drawn to work as a designer for the applied arts. He contributed some designs – for painted tiles and possibly for stained glass – to the Morris partnership and also made stained glass designs for James Powell & Sons. It was probably through the latter firm that De Morgan first met the designer James Tennent Lyon (1837-1872), with whom he shared studio premises. By the later 1860s, they were associated in ‘a loose partnership’ through the firm of J T Lyon & Co. of 40 Fitzroy Square, London. During a relatively short period up to the early 1870s, De Morgan made designs and cartoons for a number of windows, executed, presumably under his direct supervision, by the firm. Notable examples are a series of ‘Apostles’ at St Luke, Torquay, Devon (c.1869), ‘The Good Shepherd’ at St Mary the Virgin, Layer Marney, Essex (1870), and ‘The Life of Christ’, east window and others at St Michael, Rocester, Staffs (1871). Amongst the important windows at Rocester, is a single-light ‘St Michael’ window (c.1871), which resembles this panel in a number of its details, notably the stylised rendering of the archangel’s armour and the sinuous anatomy of the dragon/ serpent. The glass-painting in this panel, with its pinkish-russet tone, is also closely comparable to these examples. Perhaps most characteristic of De Morgan are the grotesque aquatic creatures that adorn the borders of this panel. In their whimsical forms, they echo those that so frequently appear in his later designs for ceramic decoration. Since De Morgan’s output in stained glass spanned only a few years, his work is relatively rare, and only a very few examples are known apart from those installed in churches. A number of his designs and cartoons for windows are in the collection of the De Morgan Foundation, now based at the Watts Gallery, Compton, Surrey. The last phase of William De Morgan’s varied career was in literature, in which he found the commercial success that had eluded his other artistic enterprises. One of his most popular novels, ‘Alice for Short’ (published by Wm. Heinemann, 1907), includes semi-autobiographical references to a fictional stained glass firm, Messrs Pope & Chappell, which were doubtless based on his own experience in the 1870s. Literature: Martin Harrison, ‘Victorian Stained Glass’, Barrie & Jenkins, London, 1980; William Waters and Alastair Carew-Cox, ‘Saints & Symbols: Pre-Raphaelite Stained Glass’.

It was founded by World War One pilots and later, outside of New York where the first meetings had taken place, other Quiet Birdmen regional groups, or hangars, were formed. Harold Hersey, the editor of ‘Aces High’ magazine, ironically called the group ‘The Quiet Birdmen’ because they were so boisterous, and this became their adopted name. In the 1920s, membership cost one dollar and lasted until death. The emblem of the club was a blue shield with the letters ‘QB’ in silver, the shield flanked by silver wings. Only male aviators were allowed to join, not female aviators or ‘Keewees’ (non-flyers). Depending on its location, current QB regular activities generally reflect the age of its members. Apparently, meetings are started with a silent toast to deceased members, with glasses raised to the west in keeping with an old pilot’s expression, euphemistically referring to death as having ‘Gone West’.

GLOSSARY OF PICTURE CATALOGUING TERMS A work catalogued with the forename(s) and surname of a recognised destination of an artist is or is probably a work by the artist, eg. David Cox. Nevertheless, intending buyers are reminded that while a full designation is our highest category or authenticity, no unqualified statement as to the authorship is made or intended. A full cataloguing does not necessarily imply a full warranty. Attributed to David Cox in our opinion a work of the period of the artist which may be in whole or in part the work of the artist.

Bears/with signature, inscription, date in our opinion the signature/inscription/date are not by the hand of the named artist.

Circle of David Cox in our opinion a work from the period of the artist and showing his influence.

The addition of a question mark (?) after any of the above cataloguing terms indicates an element of doubt.

Follower of David Cox in our opinion a work executed in the style of David Cox After David Cox in our opinion a copy of any date after a work by the artist Signed/inscribed/dated in our opinion the work has been signed/inscribed/dated by the artist

A work catalogued as ‘School’ accompanied by the name of a place or country and a date means that in our opinion the work was executed at that time and in the location, eg. South Netherlands School, circa 1750. All references to signatures, inscriptions and dates refer to the present state of the work, ie. as at the time of inspection for the purpose of cataloguing. Condition reports are not included in the descriptions.

ARTIST’S RESALE RIGHT (ARR) What is Artist’s Resale Right? Following a European Directive in 2006, the Artist’s Resale Right entitles creators of original works of art to a royalty each time their work is resold, with the involvement of an auction house, for 1,000 Euros or more. This right covers sales of work by living artists and also the beneficiaries and heirs of artists deceased within the last 70 years of the sale. How are resale royalties calculated? The artist’s royalty depends on the hammer price (sale price without any VAT or Buyer’s Premium). The higher the sale price of the artwork, the lower the overall royalty rate. The royalty is worked out according to a sliding scale from 4% to 0.25%. Hammer Price

Royalty

From 0 to €50,000

From €50,000.01 to €200,000

From €200,000.01 to €350,000

From €350,000.01 to €500,000 Exceeding €500,000

0.5% 0.25%

What is the qualifying threshold? An artwork must sell for more than €1,000 to qualify for a royalty. The law defines the price threshold in Euros and, because the exchange rate between the two currencies changes daily, the equivalent in Pounds Sterling must be worked out according to the exchange rate on the date the artwork was sold.

196

What nationality must an artist be to qualify? The Artist’s Resale Right applies to the sale of artworks in the European Economic Area (EEA). The following countries are in the EEA: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovak Republic, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom. Artists who are nationals of these countries are therefore generally eligible to receive resale royalties. The nationality criteria only applies to the artist and not to the beneficiaries or heirs. Are all sales of artwork covered? The Artist’s Resale Right does not apply to all sales of artworks. A royalty is only due if the following conditions are met: • • • •

the artwork is a copyright protected work of graphic or plastic art; it is sold for more than €1000; it is sold in the secondary market with the involvement of an art market professional (e.g. auction house); and it is sold in the UK or another country in the European Economic Area (EEA).

This royalty, where applicable, will be charged to the purchaser. It is exempt of VAT.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS 1. INFORMATION FOR BUYERS Introduction The following notes are intended to assist Bidders and Buyers, particularly those that are inexperienced or new to our salerooms. All of our auctions are governed by our Terms and Conditions and any notices that are displayed in our salerooms or announced by the Auctioneer at the auction. Our Terms and Conditions are available for inspection at our salerooms and the Terms of Sale are printed in the back of our auction catalogues. Our staff will be happy to help you if there is anything in our Terms and Conditions that you do not fully understand. Please make sure that you read our Terms of Sale carefully before bidding in the auction. If your bid is successful, you will be obliged to comply with our Terms of Sale. Methods of payment Lots must be paid for before they are collected or shipped. For those attending the auction we ask that Lots are paid for on the day of the sale. Methods by which we accept payment are detailed on our Website, including online payment upon receipt of your invoice, and these should be paid by 5pm on the Friday following the sale. We accept cash to an upper limit of 10,000 euros equivalent. We accept credit card payments to an upper limit of £5,000. Usually any cheques will need to be cleared before you can take the Goods away. Collection and storage All Lots should be paid for and collected by 5pm on the Friday following the sale. Commission Bidders should check the success of their bids and arrange payment, and collection or shipping within this time. For our specialist auctions please refer to the collection and storage requirements detailed in the catalogue and on our Website, which specifies the applicable fees. For our Homes and Interiors auctions, items not removed by 5pm on Friday may be removed at the purchaser’s expense and storage charges of £10 (plus VAT) for administration and £2 (plus VAT) per lot per day. Agency As Auctioneers we usually act on behalf of the Seller whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is not normally disclosed. If you buy at auction your contract for the Goods is with the Seller, not with us as Auctioneer. Estimates Estimates are designed to help you gauge what sort of sum might be involved for the purchase of a particular Lot. Estimates may change and should not be thought of as the sale Price. The lower estimate may represent the Reserve Price (the minimum Price for which a Lot may be sold) and will not be below the Reserve Price. Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT (where chargeable). Estimates are prepared some time before the auction and may be altered by a saleroom notice or announcement by the Auctioneer before the auction of the Lot. They are not definitive. Buyer’s Premium The Terms of Sale oblige you to pay a Buyer’s Premium at 25% on the Hammer Price of each Lot purchased, except for our Fine Wine and Port auctions when it is 15%. In addition, VAT is charged on these Premiums (see below). VAT Items in our catalogue may be marked with a dagger † or double dagger ‡, which indicates that VAT is payable by the Buyer on the Hammer Price and the Buyer’s Premium at either the standard rate (currently 20%) or a reduced rate (currently 5%), depending upon the legal requirements relating to that Lot. Lots which do not have either of the above symbols have no VAT payable on the Hammer Price. This is because such Lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme. The VAT included within the Premium is not recoverable as input tax. Shipping Costs are liable for VAT and are payable by the Buyer. Inspection of Goods by the Buyer As we act on behalf of the Seller, we are dependent on information provided by the Seller about their Goods. We may inspect Lots and will act reasonably in taking a general view about them. However, we are normally unable to carry out detailed examinations of Lots to check their condition in the way a Buyer would do. You will have ample opportunity to inspect the Goods. You must inspect and investigate Lots that you might wish to bid for. Please note carefully the exclusion of liability for the condition of Lots set out in the Terms of Sale at clause 12.4. Condition reports We may be able to assist Buyers unable to view by emailing a condition report, but these are based solely on our own opinion and are for guidance only and no responsibility is accepted for their accuracy. Intending Buyers are strongly encouraged to view. Condition reports cannot be prepared on the day of the sale. Shipping of Goods We offer a delivery service for Lots purchased. Estimates for Shipping Costs for smaller items can be calculated pre-sale on our website under each Lot and are based on value, size and your chosen UK destination. For items purchased the actual cost can be added to your account and paid online after the sale. If you purchase multiple Lots from the same auction, we will combine packaging/deliveries to reduce the Shipping Costs. For lots for which Shipping Costs cannot be automatically calculated, such as furniture, you can obtain a bespoke Shipping Cost from our website to any destination in the world either in advance of the sale or after you have purchased.

Electrical goods These are sold as ‘antiques’ only. If you buy electrical Goods for use you must ask a qualified electrician to check them for compliance with safety regulations before you use them. Export of Goods If you intend to export Goods you must find out: a. whether an export licence is needed; and b. if there is a prohibition on importing Goods of that character e.g. because the Goods contain prohibited materials such as ivory. Bidding Bidders will be required to register with us before the auction starts. We Reserve the right to impose a deadline prior to the auction by which you must register or by which we must receive a Commission bid. If you wish to bid on high value Lots this deadline may be several days before the auction in order to allow us sufficient time to carry out the necessary checks. Lots will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form. You will need to provide us with proof of your identity in a form acceptable to us and such other information as we may require. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for telephone or online bidding. Please note that we may refuse to register you if you do not provide us with all the information and documentation that we ask for or at our discretion. Commission bidding You may leave Commission bids with us indicating the maximum amount to be bid against a Lot (excluding the Buyers’ Premium and/or any applicable VAT). We will execute Commission bids as cheaply as possible having regard to the Reserve (if any) and competing bids. If two Buyers submit identical Commission bids we may prefer the first bid received (where this can be reasonably ascertained). We recommend leaving Commission bids online via our Website, though please contact us about leaving bids by telephone or fax/email. All absentee bids should be received at least 30 minutes before the auction commences; we cannot guarantee to execute Commission bids received after this time. Telephone bidding If you are unable to come to the auction it may be possible to bid on the telephone for higher value Lots. Please note that this service is for Lots with an estimate of £500 or more. The number of lines is limited so we would urge serious telephone bidding only and ask that you be prepared to bid over the top estimate. It is advisable to leave a maximum covering bid in case we are not able to contact you by telephone. All lines must be booked and confirmed in writing before the day of the auction and preferably some time in advance. Telephone bidding involves many variables and whilst we take every care to ensure the smooth operation of this service, we cannot be held liable if your bids are missed for any reason. Online bidding Any Lots purchased via a live online bidding service will be subject to an additional Commission charge on the Hammer Price payable by the Bidder, in accordance with rates specified by the online service. From 1 January 2020, these charges will be charged at 0% while bidding via Sworders Website. If bidding through the-saleroom.com this will be charged at 4.95% plus VAT. These charges will be payable to us on top of the Hammer Price and our Buyer’s Commission.

IMPORTANT NOTICES Removal of Lots All Lots are to be removed from the premises by 5.00pm at the latest on the Friday following each sale. Sworders retain the right to remove Lots remaining after this time into safe storage, for which a charge will be made. Electrical Goods All electrical Goods offered in this sale have either been tested and certified safe or unsafe by an appropriately qualified electrician. All electrical Goods certified safe must be re-Commissioned by an appropriately qualified electrician and we recommend those certified safe are similarly re-Commissioned. Post 1950 Upholstered Furniture All items of furniture included in this sale are offered for sale as works of art. The items may not comply with the Furniture and Furnishings (Fire) Safety Regulations 1988 and for this reason, they should not be used in a private dwelling. Furniture made of Brazilian Rosewood (Dalbergia Negra) To comply with CITES Regulations on Post-1947 furniture made of Brazilian Rosewood, all post-war rosewood furniture items have Article 10 certificates. If you are purchasing rosewood furniture for commercial purposes and not solely for your own use, CITES regulations require you to obtain your own certificate. You would need to contact the Animal Health and Veterinary Laboratories Agency (‘AHVLA’) and, as part of the process of obtaining your document, it is a requirement that you have seen sight of the Sworders’ certificate or are aware of its reference number. It is therefore the responsibility of commercial Buyers to ensure that they obtain a copy of the appropriate certificate, or the certificate reference number, after purchase from Sworders Fine Art Auctioneers. Items are marked with this sign §.

Estimates of Shipping Costs on our website are based on the low estimate, whilst the actual cost is based on Hammer Price.

5. VAT 5.1 You shall be liable for the payment of any VAT applicable on the Hammer Price, Premium and Shipping Costs (if applicable) due for a Lot. Please see the symbols used in the auction catalogue for that Lot and the ‘Information for Buyers’ in our auction catalogue for further information. 5.2 We will charge VAT at the current rate at the date of the auction. 6. The contract between you and the Seller 6.1 The contract for the purchase of the Lot between you and the Seller will be formed when the Auctioneer records the winning Lot in the sale book accepting the highest bid for the Lot at auction, unless due diligence information required by the Auctioneer under the Money Laundering Regulations 2019 in accordance with their internal procedure remains outstanding, in which case the contract will be formed when that information is accepted by the Auctioneer as complete. 6.2 You may directly enforce any terms in the Terms of Consignment against a Seller to the extent that you suffer damages and/or loss as a result of the Seller’s breach of the Terms of Consignment. 6.3 If you breach these Terms of Sale, you may be responsible for damages and/or losses suffered by a Seller or us. If we are contacted by a Seller who wishes to bring a claim against you, we may at our discretion provide the Seller with information or assistance in relation to that claim. 6.4 We normally act as an agent only and will not have any responsibility for default by you or the Seller (unless we are the Seller of the Lot). 7. Payment 7.1 Immediately following your successful bid on a Lot you will: 7.1.1 give to us, if not already provided to our satisfaction, proof of identity in a form acceptable to us (and any other information that we require in order to comply with our anti-money laundering obligations); and 7.1.2 pay to us the total amount due in any way that we agree to accept payment. 7.1.3 pay in full the Shipping Costs prior to the Goods being shipped, should you agree to the Auctioneer’s shipping agent delivering the Goods. 7.2 If you owe us any money, we may use any payment made by you to repay these debts. 8. Title and collection of purchases 8.1 Once you have paid us in full the total amount due for any Lot, ownership of that Lot will transfer to you. You may not claim or collect a Lot until you have paid for it. 8.2 You will (at your own expense) collect any Lots that you have purchased and paid for not later than 5pm on the Friday following the auction, or such later date as is specified in the printed catalogue or on our Website. 8.3 If you agree to the Auctioneer delivering the Goods, only when the full Shipping Costs have been paid will the Goods be dispatched. We reserve the right that some Lots will not be suitable for an automated shipping estimate and will require bespoke quotes from the shipping agent. 8.4 Should you decide to use the delivery service, you thereby agree to allow the Auctioneer to share relevant personal data that we hold with the shipping agent in order to allow effective communication between the shipping agent and you, and to enable delivery. 8.5 If you do not collect the Lot within the time period under Clause 8.2, you will be responsible for any reasonable removal and storage charges in relation to that Lot. 8.6 Risk of loss or damage to the Lot will pass to you when you (or your agents) take physical possession of the Lot. 8.7 If you do not collect the Lot that you have paid for within thirty days after the auction, we may sell the Lot. We will pay the Proceeds of any such sale to you, but will deduct any storage charges or other sums that we have incurred in the storage and sale of the Lot. We reserve the right to charge you a selling Commission at our standard rates on any such resale of the Lot.

9. Remedies for non-payment or failure to collect purchases 9.1 Please do not bid on a Lot if you do not intend to buy it. If your bid is successful, these Terms of Sale will apply to you. This means that you will have to carry out your obligations set out in these Terms of Sale. If you do not comply with these Terms of Sale we may (acting on behalf of the Seller and ourselves) pursue one or more of the following measures: 9.1.1 take action against you for damages for breach of contract; 9.1.2 reverse the sale of the Lot to you and/or any other Lots sold by us to you; 9.1.3 resell the Lot by auction or private treaty (in which case you will have to pay any difference between the Price you should have paid for the Lot and the Price we sell it for as well as the charges outlined in Clause 8.7). Please note that if we sell the Lot for a higher amount than your winning bid, the extra money will belong to the Seller; 9.1.4 remove, store and insure the Lot at your expense; 9.1.5 if you do not pay us within five business days of your successful bid, we may charge interest at a rate not exceeding 1.5% per month on the total amount due; 9.1.6 keep that Lot or any other Lot sold to you until you pay the total amount due, including Shipping Costs where applicable; 9.1.7 reject or ignore bids from you or your agent at future auctions or impose conditions before we accept bids from you; and/or 9.1.8 if we sell any Lots for you, use the money made on these Lots to repay any amount you owe us. 9.2 We will act reasonably when exercising our rights under Clause 9.1. We will contact you before exercising these rights and try to work with you to correct any noncompliance by you with these Terms of Sale. 10. Health and safety Although we take reasonable precautions regarding health and safety, you are on our premises at your own risk. Please note the lay-out of the premises and security arrangements. Neither we nor our employees or agents are responsible for the safety of you or your property when you visit our premises, unless you suffer any injury to your person or damage to your property as a result of our employees’ or our agents’ negligence. 11. Warranties 11.1 The Seller warrants to us and to you that: 11.1.1 the Seller is the true owner of the Lot for sale or is authorised by the true owner to offer and sell the Lot at auction; 11.1.2 the Seller is able to transfer good and marketable title to the Lot to you free from any third party rights or claims; and 11.1.3 as far as the Seller is aware, the main characteristics of the Lot set out in the auction catalogue (as amended by any notice displayed in the saleroom or announced by the Auctioneer at the auction) are correct. 11.2 If, after you have placed a successful bid and paid for a Lot, any of the warranties above are found not to be true, please notify us in writing. Neither we nor the Seller will be liable to pay you any sums over and above the total amount due and we will not be responsible for any inaccuracies in the information provided by the Seller except as set out below. 11.3 Please note that many of the Lots that you may bid on at our auction are second-hand. 11.4 If a Lot is not second-hand and you purchase the Lot as a Consumer from a Seller that is a Trader, a number of additional terms may be implied by law in addition to the Seller’s warranties set out at Clause 11.1 (in particular under the Consumer Rights Act 2015). These Terms of Sale do not seek to exclude your rights under law as they relate to the sale of these Lots. 11.5 Save as expressly set out above, all other warranties, conditions or other terms which might have effect between the Seller and you, or us and you, or be implied or incorporated by statue, common law or otherwise are excluded.

12. Descriptions and condition 12.1 Our descriptions of the Lot will be based on: (a) information provided to us by the Seller of the Lot (for which we are not liable); and (b) our opinion (although it is likely that we will not be able to carry out a detailed inspection of each Lot). 12.2 We will give you a number of opportunities to view and inspect the Lots before the auction. You (and any independent consultants acting on your behalf) must satisfy yourself about the accuracy of any description of a Lot. We shall not be responsible for any failure by you or your consultants to properly inspect a Lot. 12.3 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 will be honestly and reasonably held and accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. 12.4 Please note that Lots (in particular second-hand Lots) are unlikely to be in perfect condition. Lots are sold ‘as is’ (i.e. as you see them at the time of the auction). Neither we nor the Seller accept any liability for the condition of second-hand Lots or for any condition issues affecting a Lot if such issues are included in the description of a Lot in the auction catalogue (or in any saleroom notice) and/ or which the inspection of a Lot by the Buyer ought to have revealed. 13. Deliberate Forgeries 13.1 You may return any Lot which is found to be a Deliberate Forgery to us within thirty days of the auction provided that you return the Lot to us in the same condition as when it was released to you, accompanied by a written statement identifying the Lot from the relevant catalogue description and a written statement of defects. 13.2 If we are reasonably satisfied that the Lot is a Deliberate Forgery we will refund the money paid by you for the Lot (including any Premium and applicable VAT) provided that if:

15.2 Any notice referred in Clause 15.1 may be given: 15.2.1 by delivering it by hand; 15.2.2 by first class pre-paid post or recorded delivery; or 15.2.3 by email, provided that receipt of the email is acknowledged by the recipient. 15.3 Notices must be sent: 15.3.1 by hand or registered post; a. to us, at our address set out in these Terms of Sale or at our registered office address appearing on our Website; and b. to you, at the last postal address that you have given to us as your contact address in writing; or 15.3.2 by email: a. to us, by sending the notice to the following email address: auctions@sworder.co.uk b. to you, by sending the notice to any email address that you have given to us as your contact email address in writing. 15.4 Notices will be deemed to have been received: 15.4.1 if delivered by hand, on the day of delivery; 15.4.2 if sent by first class pre-paid post or recorded delivery, two business days after posting, exclusive of the day of posting; or 15.4.3 if sent by email, at the time of transmission unless sent after 17.00 in the place of receipt in which case they will be deemed to have been received on the next business day in the place of receipt (provided that receipt is acknowledged by the recipient). 15.5 Any notice or communication given under these Terms of Sale will not be validly given if sent by fax, email, any form of messaging via social media or text message.

17. General 17.1 We may, acting reasonably, refuse admission to our premises or attendance at our auctions by any person.

13.3 If you have sold the Lot to another person, we will only be liable to refund the Price that you paid for the Lot. We will not be responsible for repaying any additional money you may have made from selling the Lot.

17.2 We act as an agent for our Sellers. The rights we have to claim against you for breach of these Terms of Sale may be used by either us, our employees or agents, or the Seller, its employees or agents, as appropriate. Other than as set out in this Clause, these Terms of Sale are between you and us and no other person will have any rights to enforce any of these Terms of Sale.

13.4 Your right to return a Lot that is a Deliberate Forgery does not affect your legal rights and is in addition to any other right or remedy provided by law or by these Terms of Sale. 14. Our liability to you 14.1 We will not be liable for any loss of opportunity or disappointment suffered as a result of participating in our auction. 14.2 In addition to the above, neither we nor the Seller shall be responsible to you and you shall not be responsible to the Seller or us for any other loss or damage that any of us suffer that is not a foreseeable result of any of us not complying with the Terms and Conditions. Loss or damage is foreseeable if it is obvious that it will happen or if at the time of the sale of the Lot, we, you and the Seller knew it might happen. 14.3 Subject to Clause 14.4, if we are found to be liable to you for any reason (including, amongst others, if we are found to be negligent, in breach of contract or to have made a misrepresentation), our liability will be limited to the total purchase price paid by you to us for any Lot. 14.4 Notwithstanding the above, nothing in these Terms of Sale shall limit our liability (or that of our employees or agents) for: 14.4.1 death or personal injury resulting from negligence (as defined in the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977); 14.4.2 fraudulent misrepresentation; or 14.4.3 any liability which cannot be excluded by law. 15. Notices 15.1 All notices between you and us regarding these Terms of Sale must be in writing and signed by or on behalf of the party giving it.

17.3 We may use special terms in the catalogue descriptions of particular Lots. You must read these terms carefully along with any glossary provided in our auction catalogues. 17.4 Each of the clauses of these Terms of Sale operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining clauses will remain in full force and effect. 17.5 We may change these Terms of Sale from time to time, without notice to you. Please read these Terms of Sale carefully, as they may be different from the last time you read them. 17.6 Except as otherwise stated in these Terms of Sale, each of our rights and remedies are: (a) are in addition to and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies under these Terms of Sale or general law; and (b) may be waived only in writing and specifically. Delay in exercising or non-exercise of any right under these Terms of Sale is not a waiver of that or any other right. Partial exercise of any right under these Terms of Sale will not preclude any further or other exercise of that right or any other right under these Terms of Sale. Waiver of a breach of any term of these Terms of Sale will not operate as a waiver of breach of any other term or any subsequent breach of that term. 17.7 These Terms of Sale and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them (including any noncontractual claims or disputes) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and the parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts. These terms are based upon the recommended terms of sale by the Society of Fine Art Auctioneers and Valuers
