AN ARTS AND CRAFTS COLLECTION FROM THE ESTATE OF FIONA MACCARTHY 85-93 Lot 93 The Polymath, Frank Brangwyn Frank Brangwyn was born in Bruges, but moved to London as a child. He became a polymath and an artist-craftsman who created murals, oils and watercolours, furniture, textiles, ceramics, stained glass, and prints. His artistic output was huge and it is estimated that he created over 10,000 works. The design of this sideboard is very much in the Arts and Crafts style – embracing both simplicity and function. The raised back is cut for sighting plates, the drawer handles are fret cut with a chamfer to the base - a simple design addition - and the cupboards and sides are emphasised with carved details flanking a plain panel. On the market for the first time since 1976, where it is believed Fiona MacCarthy purchased it at auction, it is a fabulous piece showing Brangwyn’s ethos, of which he wrote in 1934, ‘An artist’s function is everything: he must be able to turn his hand to everything, for his mission is to decorate life…he should be able to make pots and pans, doors and walls, monuments or cathedrals, carve, paint, and do everything asked of him’.
Lot 93 An oak sideboard, designed by Sir Frank Brangwyn in 1926, the raised back with a grooved plate rail on a pierced back, over a panelled surface, with three frieze drawers with round pierced handles, leather backing, four cupboards each with chevron carved details, conforming sides, the back with a hardboard panel, 178.5cm wide 60cm deep 124.5cm high £6,000 - 10,000 Provenance: Purchased from Sotheby’s Belgravia in 1976.

94-257 ART DECO Lots 170-172 Salaman Hille & Co. Ltd., London Salaman Hille arrived in London from Ukraine and initially worked in a wine company in the City before setting up his furniture-making firm in Bethnal Green, in about 1906. He started the business with a woodcarver and a cabinetmaker in Rutland Street, Whitechapel and he managed to mastermind the production of some high-quality furniture, later moving to Derbyshire Street, Bethnal Green and then Old Street. By 1914 he employed eighty people, mainly cabinetmakers and carvers. He ran a craft apprenticeship training scheme in his workshop and he insisted that all staff belong to a trade union.
His private customers were mainly Jewish, but the high prices meant that his furniture was bought by those living in the North London suburbs rather than the East End. He also supplied high quality goods to department stores like Hamptons, Maples & Waring and Gillow. Salaman retired in 1932 and died in 1940. His designer daughter, Ray, then took over the business, after which it became a household name, with the firm working with designers such as Robin Day. The suites offered here are all probably from the late 1920s and, unusually, are carved to the top-drawer runners with the inscription ‘S Hille and Co. Ltd.’. These were retailed by Maples in Birmingham and were removed from a property near Cleobury Mortimer in Shropshire, where they had resided since they were purchased.

ART DECO 94-257
John Guida (1897-1965), born to an Italian father and an American mother, was an important Italian stylist, designer, and illustrator. As a child, he moved to Rome where he attended Visconti High School. In 1914 he participated in the fashion exhibition at the Circolo Degli Artisti together with Sartorio, Grassi, Innocenti, and Angoletta. John Guida was a regular visitor to the Paris fashion shows, coming into contact with famous tailors such as Jean Patou, Jeanne Lanvin, Lucien Lelong, Madeleine Vionnet, and Coco Chanel from whom he drew inspiration to find his own personal style, becoming an official dress designer for some of the most well-known Italian tailors such as Coen, Sanet and La Merveilleuse of Turin. His designs remained characterised by a refined linearity and a constant attention to precious detail. Elongated and slender female figures were often underlined by loose skirts and flowing pants; the sophisticated profiles were highlighted by short or gathered hair, inspired by the typical garçonne model of the time. He was also active as an illustrator for the women’s magazines ‘La Donna’ and ‘Cose’, and as an advertising designer for the fashion and perfumery sectors.

it started with a click London couple furnish house in lockdown auctions
For Rosie Millard, writer and broadcaster, it started with a Google search for ‘mid-century light’. She and her partner were moving to a Georgian town house in North London and refurbishment plans were forming. ‘I knew I didn’t want to buy new and the architects we were working with suggested lighting that in my eyes was too typical of things used by bars and cafes over the last decade. I particularly liked the Mid-Century look so that’s where it began.’ The search engine took Rosie to a ceiling light by Sciolari listed for sale in an upcoming Sworders’ Design auction. It was just the look she had in mind and the estimated price was agreeable. A second search took her to a biography of Gaetano Sciolari (1927-1994), the owner of Sciolari Lighting and designer for the Italian manufacturer Stilnovo in the 1950s. She was hooked. It was lockdown and we all had a little extra time on our hands. Rosie had begun by creating mood boards, often taking inspiration from the pages of World of Interiors, Elle Decoration and Country Life. ‘I would spend hours creating my wish lists then would research the names of designers. I really enjoyed that.’
‘Amazingly, there were no unpleasant surprises. I didn’t worry too much about measurements, but surprisingly everything fitted perfectly, probably because I was furnishing an empty house,’ she beams. The circular orange, brown and beige wool carpet, designed by Verner Panton in 1970, makes a real statement. It was bought in October at £800 and is the perfect size. The brutalist Syroco mirror above could have been designed for the space it inhabits. Managing a budget, Rosie chose to mix ‘investment’ pieces such as this, by leading makers and designers, with more budget-conscious furnishing items that helped achieve the right look. The set of rosewood dining chairs in the kitchendiner are the apogee of Danish style seminal designs by Johannes Andersen for Bernhard Pedersen & Son. The two elbow and four single chairs, all retaining their original upholstery, were the couple’s most expensive single purchase at £2,000. However, the walnut table they sit around - made by the Virginia firm Lane Altavista was secured with a bid of just £150. Rosie deems it her best buy.
‘I would spend hours creating my wish lists then would research the names of designers. I really enjoyed that.’
Part of her research was to compare objects and prices available from retailers and those at other auction houses. She decided to focus on Sworders’ Design sales. ‘I like the price points at Sworders and I like that the sale catalogues are “curated” with all the Mid-Century items placed together.’ It allowed Rosie to visualise the pieces in her home, make judgments about which would sit well together and offered suggestions on accent furnishings. Alongside the Sciolari light (£520) Rosie added a brutalist giltwood resin wall mirror by Syroco (£650) and colourful glass bowls and vases by Whitefriars and Murano.
Buying at auction was unfamiliar. ‘Before lockdown I had never purchased items to furnish my home at auction,’ said Rosie. ‘I had bought houses at auction but not art, antiques or collectables.’ Covid restrictions meant that the doors were closed to public, but - with the help of new technology - this was seldom an impediment to purchasing. 80
‘Viewing the items in person was not an option but I then suppose I didn’t know any different,’ Rosie muses. On sale day I chose to bid live through the Sworders’ website and I arranged collection myself from Sworders’ auction room. The whole experience was just so easy,’ said Rosie.
She found her auction purchases blended seamlessly with some contemporary furnishings the couple were keen to own. For example, the brass and steel brutalist table lamp by Maurizio Tempestini (bought for £260) in the loft room has a shade by the Monkey Puzzle Tree, a Leeds-based company with a strong social conscience that seeks to support local artists and manufacturers. It all makes for a home that is bursting with style and personality. Proof that whether your taste is for Victorian aestheticism or post-war Scandinavian design, decorating your house with period furnishings could be just a few clicks away.

MODERN DESIGN AND LIGHTING 311-700 Lots 535-536 Picasso and Madoura Pottery On a visit to Vallauris in 1946, Picasso met Georges and Suzanne Ramié, the owners of the Madoura Pottery studio.

It was at Madoura that Picasso met his second wife, Jacqueline Roque, who was working in the pottery. Picasso was well known for his exhaustive energy and he produced over three thousand different works. The majority were editions made in the workshop at Madoura, but there were also some unique pieces that he carved and other items painted by hand.

311-700 MODERN DESIGN AND LIGHTING
Max Ingrand (French, 1908-1969) Taking over from Pietro Chiesa as the artistic director of FontanaArte in 1954, Max Ingrand would lead the Italian design house to previously unseen frontiers, setting the artistic tone which defines the company to this day. Riding the wave of the economic boom of the post-war, the company, founded twenty-two years earlier by Gio Ponti, would come to define an epoch in modern design, spearheaded by innovation and natural forms. With a background as a master glazier and designer, Ingrand revolutionised the production by experimentally fusing classical ideas of glass manufacture, with the liberated design language of the era. One of his earliest conceptions, the Fontana table lamp - designed in 1954 became an instant classic and is still manufactured by the company to this day. This, however, was only the beginning for Ingram, whose designs grew more organic and bolder throughout his tenure. Working alongside a team of specially recruited apprentices, craftsmen, and engineers, their artistic vision continuously sought to push the materials used to the extent of their capabilities. This saw a phasing out of wood and Bakelite in favour of metals and glass, materials in which he saw a greater creative potential. Gone also were the straight lines and precision of his predecessors in favour of more natural shapes, allowing the material to dictate form, and not vice versa. Ingrand famously referred to glass an ideal complement to light, and by working with thicker glass than any of his predecessors, his designs stand out as almost sculptural with their organic flowing forms, as seen clearly in this extraordinary ‘Model 1748’ ceiling light. Featuring a tapering brass stem, the focus is on the shade which appears sprawled at the base. The shade in turn is partially acid etched to diffuse the light coming through, sections chipped beneath the light sources allowing them to reflect throughout the rough surface. This highly advanced system of refraction lies surprisingly close to Ingrand’s origins as a stained glass artist. Following the end of the Second World War, he worked diligently on multiple churches and cathedrals across France, restoring the stained glass windows destroyed in the antecedent years. The Design Department at Sworders are extremely proud to be able to offer for sale this extraordinary piece by one of Modern Design’s foremost visionaries, whose work not only set the tone for FontanaArte, but lighting design in general.

THE
Sally Hunter & I a n Po s g a t e
COLLECTION
Gallery owner Sally Hunter came to Badgemore Grange - a Victorian home sited in a little over nine acres of land on the outskirts of Henley on Thames - in 1990 when she and owner Ian Posgate (19322017), an insurance underwriter at Lloyds of London, were married. Sally Hunter had run a gallery in St Ives in the early 70s, later taking over a gallery on Motcomb Street in Knightsbridge where she chose to specialise in Modern British art. “We bought the best examples of their type, but then artworks were affordable £1,500 was considered a lot of money to pay for a painting” she recalls. Furnishing Badgemore was a joy. “With a gallery in Knightsbridge, the business of arranging, hanging, and moving were part
of my stock in trade - it was just that the area to be filled at Badgemore was so much bigger.” From Margaret Thomas to Joan Warburton and Lucy Harwood, many of the pictures and artists are associated with East Anglia - a reflection perhaps of Sally’s early life in Suffolk (she was brought up in Woodbridge). Sworders are pleased to offer the entire contents of Badgemore Grange. The sale will be comprised of 450 lots of pictures, furniture and works of art which capture the style and taste of the owners. “It is a collection which we hugely enjoyed putting together and living with for many years.”
The Sally Hunter & Ian Posgate Collection, Badgemore Grange auction will take place on Tuesday 18 May, for more information about the sale please contact Jane Oakley janeoakley@sworder.co.uk | 01279 817778

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
4%
From €50,000.01 to €200,000
3%
From €200,000.01 to €350,000
1%
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.
192
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.

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.

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:

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.

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
