Last Thursday night Webb's had another successful and well attended antique sale with many decorative items selling well over estimate. Read Webb's illustrated highlight report here. My favourite items were the framed bolt displays (lot 587 and 588). Estimated at between $2,000-$3,000 each they sold for $6,100 (hammer price) Where would you ever find another one?
It has certainly been a fortnight of sales. (Cordy's Antique Sale and Webb's Art and Photography were last week). This week Dunbar Sloane is selling the crème de la crème of Florence Court, silver, jewellery, collectables, Maori artefacts and NZ historical lots over the next three days. You can download their catalogue free here.
In the art world; International Art Centre have their "Important, Early & Rare New Zealand Heritage Art & others Sale" on Tuesday night. Catalogue here.
And not forgetting Art + Object's Important Painting and Sculpture Sale on Thursday night. See catalogue and video introduction on their website here.
Good Luck!
