SUZANNE LALIQUE (1892-1989)
A UNIQUE THREE PANEL SCREEN, 1920s
oil on canvas, birds-eye maple frame
each panel: 65 in. (159 cm.) high; 27q in. (70 cm.) wide
signed Suzanne Lalique
30,000-50,000 $49,000-81,000
38,000-63,000
P R O V E N A N C E :
European collection .
This rare screen is a fine example of Suzannes inspiration. Like her father,
she translated nature into her distinct vision stylized compositions of
colour and line. The dynamic arrangements of the tree branches and the
use of black, blue and silver as dominant colours situate the screen to
around 1920.
Suzanne Lalique was a talented, multi-faceted artist capable of
transforming the various materials she experimented with glass,
porcelain, fabric or paint into true works of art. Born in 1892, the
daughter of Ren Lalique enjoyed a career worthy of her name. Her
distinct achievements were largely overlooked however until the 1912
Muse Lalique exhibition Suzanne Lalique-Haviland Le dcor rinvent.
The original design drawing for this screen is in the collection of the
Muse Lalique and is illustrated on page 27 of the catalogue of the
above exhibition.
From the age of 17, encouraged by her father, Suzanne contributed to
the development of the family glassworks, creating her first design of
a powder box for Coty in 1910. There followed a prolific period of work,
attracting important private clients, surely the most distinguished being
Jacques Doucet, the famous couturier, art patron and collector, who
became her client in 1913 and commissioned four decorative screens.
Records confirm the execution by Suzanne Lalique, between 1914 and
1927, of more than a dozen painted screens. Only a few of the original
designs and two screens, however, are known to have survived one
in the collection of the Muse Lalique and the present lot, acquired by
the family of the current owner directly from Lalique at the Exposition
Internationale des Arts Dcoratifs et Industriels Modernes in Paris in 1925.
Christies would like to thank Vronique Brumm for her assistance
cataloguing this lot.

By the time of his death in 1962, Ivan Mstrovic was acknowledged as one of the leading
sculptors of the 20th Century, lauded by August Rodin as the greatest phenomenon
amongst the sculptors. Born in 1883 in Otavice, a poor village in Croatia, Mstrovic
moved to Vienna to study sculpture at the Academy of Art in 1901. Here, the young
artist was inspired by the energy and ideals expressed by the Vienna Secession and
began exhibiting with them in 1903. This was the start of a hugely successful career
which saw Mstrovic exhibiting in many European cities including London, Paris ,Venice
and Rome, and becoming the first living artist to have a solo show at the Metropolitan
Museum of Art in New York in 1947. The turning point of his career was in 1911,when he
was awarded the Grand Prix for sculpture for his contribution to the Serbian Pavilion at
the International Exhibition in Rome.
The artist created a powerful installation which included pieces from his most ambitious
project the Vidovdan Temple; a mausoleum symbolic of the secular struggles for
freedom of the Slavian people of Kosovo. The exhibition included emblematic pieces
representing characters, such as The Widow, The Memory and slaves, depicted trying
to free themselves from chains as in the present lot. Dated 1911, the sculpture was in all
probability included in the installation in Rome and represents an important example of
Mstrovic style during that period. While permeated with the elements of the Secession
and Symbolism, the pieces marked the beginning of a monumental and heroic style
which Mstrovic employed to express his political and spiritual ideals in the plastic
medium. The sculpture carries a motto Destino Volonta Di Potenza Destiny, Will to
Power which is a reference to the philosopher Frederic Nietzsche and is a further
indication of Mstrovics ideals.
Throughout life I carried with me an
incomparable inheritance: poverty;
poverty of my family and my nation.
The first helped me to never be afraid of
material dificulties, for I could never have
less than at the beginning. The second
drove me to persevere in my work, so
that at least in my own field my nations
poverty would be diminished
Ivan Mstrovic

The prolific designer and architect Charles Francis Annesley Voysey is today
celebrated as one of the most important designers of the turn of the twentieth
century. The first clock of this rare form was designed in 1895 by Voysey for his own
home, The Orchard, in Chorleywood. With a decorated face, the design for this piece
is now in the collection of the R.I.B.A. London, and the clock itself is in the Victoria &
Albert Museum, London. Another decorated example is in the Virginia Museum of
Fine Arts, Richmond, USA. Of the very few oak examples known, one is illustrated in
Cooper (op.cit., 1978, where listed as having been made by Liberty & Co, which is no
longer considered to be the case). Only two other variants are known, one in ebony
and one in aluminium.
As Simpson notes (p. 58), this clock is one of the most distinctive and best
known of Voyseys output. The current piece is a welcome addition to the scarce
examples known.

ARCHIBALD KNOX (1864-1933)
AN IMPORTANT SIDE TABLE, 1902
pine, pewter inlay, the rear backboard above a rectangular top with central shaped pewter inset flanked by open
end apertures, on a shaped base
38q in. (98 cm.) high; 53 in. (136.cm.) wide; 17 in. (45 cm.) deep
the backboard carved A.Knox and 1902

19,000-25,000
It was during his years in Sulby, 1900 through 1904, that Archibald Knox was at the peak of his creativity while working
as a designer for Liberty & Co, London. Though Knox is not known to have produced commercial furniture designs,
it appears as though he commissioned some, likely from a local craftsman. This worktable belongs to that small
grouping. Included among them is a wooden clock case, inscribed designed by Archibald Knox. Sulby I.O.M. A.D. 1904
in his distinctive style, now in the Manx Museum and an intricately crafted chest that might have housed drawings and
drafting materials inscribed A Knox 1903, also in typical Knox fashion, now in a private collection. Besides its inscription
that links this table to Knox is its design sensibility. Its distinctive overall outline is similar to some of his great clock
designs where he uses elegant sculpted flanges; the incorporates his signature entrelacs carved into the backboard
and includes an inlaid pewter plaque on the tables surface that is nearly identical in shape to those used in a variety of
graphic designs throughout his career. As such the worktable is a fascinating example of Knoxs creative versatility.

Editor, Archibald Knox, London, 2001.
The present table was recently discovered by the current owner as part of the residual contents of a newly-acquired
cottage in Sulby, Isle of Man, located opposite the house where Knox lived between 1900 and 1904.

This carpet was ordered by Tom E. Barr-Smith in February 1926 at the request of the Adelaide Club
(of which he was then Vice President) and was presented by him as a gift to the Club in late October
of that year.
Tom E. Barr-Smith was the eldest son of Robert and Joanna Barr-Smith, a family that was perhaps the
most important and committed patrons of Morris & Co. from the 1880s through to the 1920s. Their three
Adelaide homes - Torrens Park, Auchendarroch and Birkdale (later to become the home of Tom Barr-
Smith) were all extensively furnished with Morris & Co. fabrics, either ordered through the mail or during
visits to England. Joanna was a friend of May Morris and this was no doubt an influential factor
in directing her taste, at least in the early days of the Barr-Smiths patronage.
Production at the Merton Abbey workshops ceased in 1912, and subsequent manufacture was
transferred to the Royal Wilton Carpet Factory. This carpet, from the nature of both its construction and
the materials used, indicate that India was the most likely place of its manufacture, where there existed
a long tradition of hand-knotted carpet production. Given the ultimate destination of the carpet, it would
seem logical that a decision would have been made to have it woven in India rather than in England,
thereby reducing the delivery time by at least two months.
The Montreal design was originally conceived by J.H. Dearle in the early 1890s and was first used at that
date by Morris & Co. for the Drawing Room at Stanmore Hall, owned by William Knox DArcy. The design
continued to be available through Morris & Co. at least until the 1920s, with studio copies of this and other
designs on display at the Morris & Co. shop in Oxford Street, from which prospective clients could make
their selection for carpets. A copy of this design was given to the Victoria & Albert Museum and remains
in the permanent collection. Another example of this design was commissioned by Peterhouse College,
Cambridge, against a blue ground.

ERNEST GIMSON (1864-1919)
A FINE CABINET,
COMMISSIONED BY ADAM BLACK, 1917
solid macassar ebony, burr-yew, with elaborate cornice
and shaped astragal bars, the canted cupboard doors
enclosing a three shelves with rear plate-rest, the
lower section with a pair of central cupboard doors

18q in. (47 cm.) deep (max.)
15,000-25,000 $25,000-41,000
19,000-31,000
The original signed design drawing by Gimson for this
cabinet, dated August 1917, is held in the collection of
Cheltenham Art Gallery & Museum, Gloucestershire.
The present cabinet, with its use of high quality timbers
matched with the finest hand-craftsmanship, exemplifies
the aims of the Cotswold School of craftsmen. The
Arts and Crafts ideals of truth to materials, honesty of
construction and fitness for purpose are fundamental
principles of Gimsons work, together with that of his
close associates Ernest and Sidney Barnsley. Produced at
his Daneway workshop, this large-scale commission was
produced at a time Gimson was beset with dificulties
in workshops in operation throughout the First World
War. Details regarding its patron and commission remain
elusive but its bold styling and presence underline that it
was a high-profile work, intended for prominent display.
Described by Sir Nikolaus Pevsner as the greatest of the
English artist-craftsman, Gimsonss high calibre output
and fastidious attention to detail, clearly demonstrated
on the current piece, provided an inspiration both
for contemporaries and successive generations of
craftsmen and designers.

IMPORTANT NOTICES AND EXPLANATION OF
CATALOGUING PRACTICE
IMPORTANT NOTICES
CHRISTIES INTEREST IN PROPERTY
CONSIGNED FOR AUCTION
From time to time, Christies may offer a lot which
it owns in whole or in part. Such property is
identified in the catalogue with the symbol next
to its lot number.
On occasion, Christies has a direct financial
interest in lots consigned for sale, which may
include guaranteeing a minimum price or making
an advance to the consignor that is secured solely
by consigned property. Such property is identified
in the catalogue with the symbol next to the lot
number. This symbol will be used both in cases
where Christies holds the financial interest on its
own, and in cases where Christies has financed
all or part of such interest through third parties.
When a third party agrees to finance all or part
of Christies interest in a lot, it takes on all or
part of the risk of the lot not being sold, and will
be remunerated in exchange for accepting this
risk. The third party may also bid for the lot.
Where it does so, and is the successful bidder,
the remuneration may be netted against the final
purchase price. If the lot is not sold, the third
party may incur a loss. Where Christies has an
ownership or financial interest in every lot in the
catalogue, Christies will not designate each lot
with a symbol, but will state its interest at the front
of the catalogue.
In this catalogue, if property has

X next to the lot


number, Christies guarantee of a minimum price
has been financed through third parties.
ALL DIMENSIONS ARE APPROXIMATE
CONDITION
Christies catalogues include references to condition
only in descriptions of multiple works (such as
prints, books and wine). For all other property,
only alterations or replacement components are
listed. Please contact the Specialist Department
for a condition report on a particular lot. The
nature of the lots sold in our auctions is such that
they will rarely be in perfect condition, and are
likely, due to their nature and age, to show signs
of wear and tear, damage, other imperfections,
restoration or repair. Any reference to condition
in a catalogue entry will not amount to a full
description of condition. Condition reports are
usually available on request, and will supplement
the catalogue description. In describing lots, our
staff assess the condition in a manner appropriate to
the estimated value of the item and the nature of
the auction in which it is included. Any statement
as to the physical nature or condition of a lot, in a
catalogue, condition report or otherwise, is given
honestly and with appropriate care. However,
Christies staff are not professional restorers or
trained conservators and accordingly any such
statement will not be exhaustive. We therefore
recommend that you always view property
personally, and, particularly in the case of any items
of significant value, that you instruct your own
restorer or other professional adviser to report to
you in advance of bidding.
11/04/14
PROPERTY INCORPORATING MATERIALS
FROM ENDANGERED AND OTHER
PROTECTED SPECIES
Property made of or incorporating (irrespective
of percentage) endangered and other protected
species of wildlife are marked with the symbol ~
in the catalogue. Such material includes, among
other things, ivory, tortoiseshell, crocodile skin,
rhinoceros horn, whale bone and certain species of
coral, together with Brazilian rosewood. Prospective
purchasers are advised that several countries prohibit
altogether the importation of property containing
such materials, and that other countries require a
permit (e.g., a CITES permit) from the relevant
regulatory agencies in the countries of exportation
as well as importation. Accordingly, clients should
familiarise themselves with the relevant customs laws
and regulations prior to bidding on any property
with wildlife material if they intend to import the
property into another country. Please note that it is
the clients responsibility to determine and satisfy the
requirements of any applicable laws or regulations
applying to the export or import of property
containing endangered and other protected wildlife
material. The inability of a client to export or import
property containing endangered and other protected
wildlife material is not a basis for cancellation or
rescission of the sale. Please note also that lots
containing potentially regulated wildlife material are
marked as a convenience to our clients, but Christies
does not accept liability for errors or for failing to
mark lots containing protected or regulated species.
RECENT CHANGES TO IMPORTS OF
ELEPHANT IVORY AND OTHER WILDLIFE
MATERIAL INTO THE USA
The USA has recently changed its policy on the
import of property made of or containing elephant
ivory. Only Asian Elephant ivory may be imported
into the USA, and imports must be accompanied by
DNA analysis and confirmation the object is more
than 100 years old. We have not obtained a DNA
analysis on any lot prior to sale and cannot indicate
whether the elephant ivory in a particular lot is
African or Asian elephant. Buyers purchase these
lots at their own risk and will be responsible for the
costs of obtaining any DNA analysis or other report
required in connection with their proposed import of
such property into the USA.
The USA is also currently requiring all imports of
property made of or containing wildlife material
to be accompanied by a scientific confirmation of
species and in some cases an additional confirmation
of age. We have not obtained such confirmations
prior to sale (unless specifically indicated) and
buyers will be responsible for the costs of any such
additional confirmations or opinions required for
their proposed import into the USA.
A buyers inability to export or import any lot
containing elephant ivory or other wildlife material
is not a basis for cancelling the purchase.
POST 1950 FURNITURE
All items of post-1950 furniture included in this
sale are items either not originally supplied for use
in a private home or now offered solely as works
of art. These items may not comply with the
provisions of the Furniture and Furnishings (Fire)
(Safety) Regulations 1988 (as amended in 1989 and
1993, the Regulations). Accordingly, these items
should not be used as furniture in your home in
their current condition. If you do intend to use such
items for this purpose, you must first ensure that
they are reupholstered, restuffed and/or recovered
(as appropriate) in order that they comply with the
provisions of the Regulations.
ELECTRICAL GOODS
All electrical goods offered in this catalogue have
either been tested and certified by an appropriately
qualified electrician or have been operationally
disabled. We would strongly advise that any intended
re-commissioning is undertaken by an appropriately
qualified electrician.

BUYING AT CHRISTIES
CONDITIONS OF SALE
Christies Conditions of Sale and Limited Warranty are set out
later in this catalogue. Bidders are strongly encouraged to read
these as they set out the terms on which property is bought
at auction.
ESTIMATES
Estimates are based upon prices recently paid at auction for
comparable property, condition, rarity, quality and provenance.
Estimates are subject to revision. Buyers should not rely upon
estimates as a representation or prediction of actual selling
prices. Estimates do not include the buyers premium or VAT.
Where Estimate on Request appears, please contact the
Specialist Department for further information.
RESERVES
The reserve is the confidential minimum price the consignor
will accept and will not exceed the low pre-sale estimate. Lots
that are not subject to a reserve are identified by the symbol
next to the lot number.
BUYERS PREMIUM
Christies charges a premium to the buyer on the final bid
price of each lot sold at the following rates: 25% of the final
bid price of each lot up to and including 50,000, 20% of
the excess of the hammer price above 50,000 and up to and
including 1,000,000 and 12% of the excess of the hammer
price above 1,000,000. Exceptions: Wine and Cigars: 17.5%
of the final bid price of each lot. VAT is payable on the
premium at the applicable rate.
PRE-AUCTION VIEWING
Pre-auction viewings are open to the public free of charge.
Christies specialists are available to give advice and condition
reports at viewings or by appointment.
BIDDER REGISTRATION
Prospective buyers who have not previously bid or consigned
with Christies should bring:
Individuals: government-issued photo identification (such as
a photo driving licence, national identity card, or passport) and,
if not shown on the ID document, proof of current address, for
example a utility bill or bank statement.
Corporate clients: a certificate of incorporation.
For other business structures such as trusts, offshore
companies or partnerships, please contact Christies Credit
Department at + 44 (0)20 7839 2825 for advice on the
information you should supply.
A financial reference in the form of a recent bank statement
or a reference from your bank in line with your expected
purchase level. Christies can supply a form of wording for the
bank reference if necessary.
Persons registering to bid on behalf of someone who has
not previously bid or consigned with Christies should bring
identification documents not only for themselves but also for
the party on whose behalf they are bidding, together with a
signed letter of authorisation from that party.
To allow sufficient time to process the information, new clients
are encouraged to register at least 48 hours in advance of a sale.
Prospective buyers should register for a numbered bidding
paddle at least 30 minutes before the auction. Clients who have
not made a purchase from any Christies office within the last
one year and those wishing to spend more than on previous
occasions, will be asked to supply a new bank reference.
For assistance with references, please contact Christies Credit
Department at +44 (0)20 7389 2862 (London, King Street)
or at +44 (0)20 7752 3137 (London, South Kensington). We
may at our option ask you for a financial reference or a
deposit as a condition of allowing you to bid.
REGISTERING TO BID ON SOMEONE ELSES BEHALF
Persons bidding on behalf of an existing client should bring
a signed letter from the client authorising the bidder to act
on the clients behalf. Please note that Christies does not
accept payments from third parties. Christies can only accept
payment from the client, and not from the person bidding
on their behalf.
BIDDING
The auctioneer accepts bids from those present in the sale-
room, from telephone bidders, or by absentee written bids left
with Christies in advance of the auction. The auctioneer may
also execute bids on behalf of the seller up to the amount of
the reserve. The auctioneer will not specifically identify bids
placed on behalf of the seller. Under no circumstances will the
auctioneer place any bid on behalf of the seller at or above the
reserve. Bid steps are shown on the Absentee Bid Form at the
back of this catalogue.
ABSENTEE BIDS
Absentee bids are written instructions from prospective buyers
directing Christies to bid on their behalf up to a maximum
amount specified for each lot. Christies staff will attempt to
execute an absentee bid at the lowest possible price, taking
into account the reserve price. Absentee bids submitted on no
reserve lots will, in the absence of a higher bid, be executed
at approximately 50% of the low pre sale estimate or at the
amount of the bid if it is less than 50% of the low pre-sale
estimate.The auctioneer may execute absentee bids directly
from the rostrum, clearly identifying these as absentee bids,
book bids, order bids or commission bids. Absentee
Bids Forms are available in this catalogue, at any Christies
location, or online at christies.com.
TELEPHONE BIDS
Telephone bids cannot be accepted for lots estimated below
2,000. Arrangements must be confirmed with the Bid
Department at least 24 hours prior to the auction at +44 (0)20
7389 2658 (London, King Street) or +44 (0)20 7752 3225
(London, South Kensington). Arrangements to bid in languages
other than English must be made well in advance of the sale
date. Telephone bids may be recorded. By bidding on the
telephone, prospective purchasers consent to the recording of
their conversation.
SUCCESSFUL BIDS
While Invoices are sent out by mail after the auction we do not
accept responsibility for notifying you of the result of your bid.
Buyers are requested to contact us by telephone or in person as
soon as possible after the sale to obtain details of the outcome
of their bids to avoid incurring unnecessary storage charges.
Successful bidders will pay the price of the final bid plus
premium plus any applicable VAT.
PAYMENT
Buyers are expected to make payment for purchases
immediately after the auction. To avoid delivery delays,
prospective buyers are encouraged to supply bank or other
suitable references before the auction. Please note that Christies

VAT

VAT payable at 20% on hammer price and buyers premium


*
These lots have been imported from outside the EU for sale
using a Temporary Import regime. Import VAT is payable (at
5%) on the Hammer price. VAT is also payable (at 20%) on
the buyers Premium on a VAT inclusive basis. This VAT is
not shown separately on the invoice. When a buyer of such a
lot has registered an EU address but wishes to export the lot or
complete the import into another EU country, he must advise
Christies immediately after the auction.

If a buyer, having registered under a non-EU address, decides
that the item is not to be exported from the EU, then he
should advise Christies to this effect immediately

No VAT charged.
(no symbol) Auctioneers Margin Scheme
In all other circumstances no VAT will be charged on the
hammer price, but VAT payable at 20% will be added to the
buyers premium which is invoiced on a VAT inclusive basis.
Wine Auctions
This wine is in bond. You can choose to take the wine
in bond or duty paid. See the additional conditions of sale
relating to wine for further details.
VAT Refunds
Refunds cannot be made where lots have been purchased with
an inside EU address. Christies can only refund Import VAT
(Lots with * or symbol) if lots are exported within 30 days
of collection. Valid export documents must be returned within
the stipulated time frame. No refund will be paid out where
the total amount is less than 100. UK & EU private buyers
cannot reclaim VAT. Christies will charge 35 for each
refund processed. For detailed information please see the leaflets
available, or email info@Christies.com
Where non-EU buyers have failed to export their lots outside
of the EU within the required time, HM Revenue & Customs
will not allow a VAT refund to be made. This is a requirement
of UK legislation and Christies do not have discretion to make
exceptions to the rule. UK and EU private buyers cannot
reclaim any VAT charged.
ARTISTS RESALE RIGHT (DROIT DE SUITE)
If a lot is affected by this right it will be identified with the
symbol next to the lot number. The buyer agrees to pay to
Christies an amount equal to the resale royalty. Resale royalty
applies where the Hammer Price is 1,000 Euro or more and
the amount cannot be more than 12,500 Euro per lot. The
amount is calculated as follows:
Royalty For the portion of the Hammer Price (in Euro)
4.00% up to 50,000
3.00% between 50,000.01 and 200,000
1.00% between 200,000.01 and 350,000
0.50% between 350,000.01 and 500,000
0.25% in excess of 500,000
Invoices will, as usual, be issued in Pounds Sterling. For the
purposes of calculating the resale royalty the Pounds Sterling/
Euro rate of exchange will be the European Central Bank
reference rate on the day of the sale.
SHIPPING
It is the buyers responsibility to pick up purchases or make
all shipping arrangements. After payment has been made in
full, Christies can arrange property packing and shipping at
the buyers request and expense. Buyers should request an
estimate for any large items or property of high value that
require professional packing. A shipping form is enclosed with
each invoice, alternatively buyers can visit www.christies.com/
shipping to request a shipping estimate. For more information
please contact the Shipping Department at + 44 (0)20 7389
2712 or via
ArtTransport_London@christies.com for both London,
King Street and London, South Kensington sales.

following applies:

date of collection. All other lots not subject to import VAT
must be exported within three months of collection, and proof

EXPORT/IMPORT PERMITS
Buyers should always check whether an export licence is required
before exporting. It is the buyers sole responsibility to obtain any
relevant export or import licence. The denial of any licence or
any delay in obtaining licences shall neither justify the rescission of
any sale nor any delay in making full payment for the lot.
Christies can advise buyers on the detailed provisions of the
export licensing regulations and will submit any necessary
export licence applications on request. However, Christies
cannot ensure that a licence will be obtained. Local laws may
prohibit the import of some property and/or may prohibit
the resale of some property in the country of importation.

CONDITIONS OF SALE
These Conditions of Sale and the Important Notices
and Explanation of Cataloguing Practice set out the
terms governing the legal relationship of Christies
and the seller with the buyer. You should read them
carefully before bidding.
1. CHRISTIES AS AGENT
Except as otherwise stated Christies acts as agent for
the seller. The contract for the sale of the property is
therefore made between the seller and the buyer.
2. CATALOGUE DESCRIPTIONS
AND CONDITION
Lots are sold as described and otherwise in the
condition they are in at the time of the sale, on the
following basis.
(a) Condition
The nature of the lots sold in our auctions is such that
they will rarely be in perfect condition, and are likely,
due to their nature and age, to show signs of wear
and tear, damage, other imperfections, restoration or
repair. Any reference to condition in a catalogue entry
will not amount to a full description of condition.
Condition reports are usually available on request,
and will supplement the catalogue description. In
describing lots, our staff assess the condition in a
manner appropriate to the estimated value of the item
and the nature of the auction in which it is included.
Any statement as to the physical nature or condition
of a lot, in a catalogue, condition report or otherwise,
is given honestly and with appropriate care. However,
Christies staff are not professional restorers or trained
conservators and accordingly any such statement will
not be exhaustive. We therefore recommend that you
always view property personally, and, particularly
in the case of any items of significant value, that
you instruct your own restorer or other professional
adviser to report to you in advance of bidding.
(b) Cataloguing Practice
Our cataloguing practice is explained in the
Important Notices and Explanation of Cataloguing
Practice, which appear after the catalogue entries.
(c) Attribution etc
Any statements made by Christies about any lot,
whether orally or in writing, concerning attribution
to, for example, an artist, school, or country of origin,
or history or provenance, or any date or period, are
expressions of our opinion or belief. Our opinions and
beliefs have been formed honestly and in accordance
with the standard of care reasonably to be expected
of an auction house of Christies standing, due regard
having been had to the estimated value of the item
and the nature of the auction in which it is included.
It must be clearly understood, however, that, due to
the nature of the auction process, we are unable to
carry out exhaustive research of the kind undertaken
by professional historians and scholars, and also that, as
research develops and scholarship and expertise evolve,
opinions on these matters may change. We therefore
recommend that, particularly in the case of any item of
significant value, you seek advice on such matters from
your own professional advisers.
(d) Estimates
Estimates of the selling price should not be relied on
as a statement that this is the price at which the item
will sell or its value for any other purpose.
(e) Fitness for Purpose
Lots sold are enormously varied in terms of age, category
and condition, and may be purchased for a variety
of purposes. Unless otherwise specifically agreed, no
promise is made that a lot is fit for any particular purpose.
3. AT THE SALE
(a) Refusal of admission
Christies has the right, at our complete discretion,
to refuse admission to the premises or participation
in any auction and to reject any bid.
(b) Registration before bidding
Prospective buyers who wish to bid in the saleroom
can register online in advance of the sale, or
can come to the saleroom on the day of the sale
approximately 30 minutes before the start of the
sale to register in person. Prospective buyers must
complete and sign a registration form with his
or her name and permanent address, and provide
identification before bidding. We may require the
production of bank details from which payment will
be made or other financial references.
(c) Bidding as principal
When making a bid, a bidder is accepting personal
liability to pay the purchase price, including the
buyers premium and all applicable taxes, plus
all other applicable charges, unless it has been
explicitly agreed in writing with Christies before
the commencement of the sale that the bidder is
acting as agent on behalf of an identified third party
acceptable to Christies, and that Christies will only
look to the principal for payment.
(d) Absentee bids
We will use reasonable efforts to carry out written
bids delivered to us prior to the sale for the
convenience of clients who are not present at the
auction in person, by an agent or by telephone. Bids
must be placed in the currency of the place of the
sale. Please refer to the catalogue for the Absentee
Bids Form. If we receive written bids on a particular
lot for identical amounts, and at the auction these
are the highest bids on the lot, it will be sold to
the person whose written bid was received and
accepted first. Execution of written bids is a free
service undertaken subject to other commitments
at the time of the sale and provided that we have
exercised reasonable care in the handling of written
bids, the volume of goods is such that we cannot
accept liability in any individual instance for failing
to execute a written bid or for errors and omissions
in connection with it arising from circumstances
beyond our reasonable control.
(e) Telephone bids
If a prospective buyer makes arrangements with us
prior to the commencement of the sale we will use
reasonable efforts to contact them to enable them to
participate in the bidding by telephone but we do
not accept liability for failure to do so or for errors
and omissions in connection with telephone bidding
arising from circumstances beyond our reasonable
control.
(f) Currency converter
At some auctions a currency converter may be
operated. Errors may occur in the operation of
the currency converter. Where these arise from
circumstances beyond our reasonable control we
do not accept liability to bidders who follow the
currency converter rather than the actual bidding in
the saleroom.
(g) Video or digital images
At some auctions there may be a video or digital
screen. Errors may occur in its operation and in the
quality of the image. We do not accept liability for
such errors where they arise for reasons beyond our
reasonable control.
(h) Reserves
Unless otherwise indicated, all lots are offered
subject to a reserve, which is the confidential
minimum price below which the lot will not be
sold. The reserve will not exceed the low estimate
printed in the catalogue. If any lots are not subject
to a reserve, they will be identified with the symbol
next to the lot number. The auctioneer may open
the bidding on any lot below the reserve by placing
a bid on behalf of the seller. The auctioneer may
continue to bid on behalf of the seller up to the
amount of the reserve, either by placing consecutive
bids or by placing bids in response to other bidders.
(i) Auctioneers discretion
The auctioneer has the right to exercise reasonable
discretion in refusing any bid, advancing the bidding
in such a manner as he may decide, withdrawing or
dividing any lot, combining any two or more lots
and, in the case of error or dispute, and whether
during or after the sale, determining the successful
bidder, continuing the bidding, cancelling the sale
or reoffering and reselling the item in dispute. If
any dispute arises after the sale, then, in the absence
of any evidence to the contrary the sale record
maintained by the auctioneer will be conclusive.
(j) Successful bid and passing of risk
Subject to the auctioneers reasonable discretion, the
highest bidder accepted by the auctioneer will be
the buyer and the striking of his hammer marks the
acceptance of the highest bid and the conclusion of
a contract for sale between the seller and the buyer.
Risk and responsibility for the lot (including frames
or glass where relevant) passes to the buyer at the
expiration of seven calendar days from the date of
the sale or on collection by the buyer if earlier.
4. AFTER THE SALE
(a) Buyers premium
In addition to the hammer price, the buyer agrees
to pay to us the buyers premium together with any
applicable value added tax. The buyers premium
is 25% of the final bid price of each lot up to and
including 50,000, 20% of the excess of the hammer
price above 50,000 and up to and including
1,000,000 and 12% of the excess of the hammer
price above 1,000,000. Exceptions: Wine and
Cigars: 17.5% of the final bid price of each lot, VAT
is payable at the applicable rate.
(b) Artists Resale Right (Droit de Suite)
If the Artists Resale Right Regulations 2006 apply to
the lot the buyer also agrees to pay to us an amount
equal to the resale royalty provided for in those
Regulations. Lots affected are identified with the
symbol next to the lot number.
(c) Payment and ownership
The buyer must pay the full amount due
(comprising the hammer price, buyers premium
and any applicable taxes or resale royalty)
immediately after the sale. This applies even if
the buyer wishes to export the lot and an export
licence is, or may be, required. The buyer will not
acquire title to the lot until all amounts due to us
from the buyer have been received by us in good
cleared funds even in circumstances where we have
released the lot to the buyer.
09/08/13
154
(d) Collection of purchases
We shall be entitled to retain items sold until all
amounts due to us, or to Christies International
plc, or to any of its affiliates, subsidiaries or parent
companies worldwide, have been received in full in
good cleared funds or until the buyer has performed
any other outstanding obligations as we, at our sole
discretion, shall require, including, for the avoidance
of doubt, completing any anti-money laundering or
anti-terrorism financing checks we may require to our
satisfaction. In the event a buyer fails to complete any
anti-money laundering or anti-terrorism financing
checks to our satisfaction, Christies shall be entitled
to cancel the sale and to take any other actions that are
required or permitted under applicable law. Subject
to this, the buyer shall collect purchased lots within
two calendar days from the date of the sale unless
otherwise agreed between us and the buyer.
(e) Packing, handling and shipping
Although we shall use reasonable efforts to take care
when handling, packing and shipping a purchased
lot and in selecting third parties for these purposes,
we are not responsible for the acts or omissions of
any such third parties. Similarly, where we suggest
other handlers, packers or carriers if so requested,
our suggestions are made on the basis of our general
experience of such parties in the past and we are not
responsible to any person to whom we have made
a recommendation for the acts or omissions of the
third party concerned.
(f) Export licence
Unless otherwise agreed by us in writing, the fact
that the buyer wishes to apply for an export licence
does not affect his or her obligation to make payment
immediately after the sale nor our right to charge
interest or storage charges on late payment. If the
buyer requests us to apply for an export licence on his
or her behalf, we shall be entitled to make a charge for
this service. We shall not be obliged to rescind a sale
nor to refund any interest or other expenses incurred
by the buyer where payment is made by the buyer in
circumstances where an export licence is required.
(g) Remedies for non payment
If the buyer fails to make payment in full in good
cleared funds within 7 days after the sale, we shall
have the right to exercise a number of legal rights
and remedies. These include, but are not limited to,
the following:
(i) to charge interest at an annual rate equal to 5%
above the base rate of Lloyds TSB Bank Plc;
(ii) to hold the defaulting buyer liable for the
total amount due and to commence legal
proceedings for its recovery together with
interest, legal fees and costs to the fullest extent
permitted under applicable law;
(iii) to cancel the sale;
(iv) to resell the property publicly or privately on
such terms as we shall think fit;
(v) to pay the seller an amount up to the net
proceeds payable in respect of the amount bid
by the defaulting buyer;
(vi) to set off against any amounts which we,
or Christies International plc, or any of its
affiliates, subsidiaries or parent companies
worldwide, may owe the buyer in any other
transactions, the outstanding amount remaining
unpaid by the buyer;
(vii) where several amounts are owed by the buyer
to us, or to Christies International plc, or
to any of its affiliates, subsidiaries or parent
companies worldwide, in respect of different
transactions, to apply any amount paid to
discharge any amount owed in respect of any
particular transaction, whether or not the buyer
so directs;
(viii) to reject at any future auction any bids made by
or on behalf of the buyer or to obtain a deposit
from the buyer before accepting any bids;
(ix) to exercise all the rights and remedies of a
person holding security over any property in our
possession owned by the buyer, whether by way
of pledge, security interest or in any other way,
to the fullest extent permitted by the law of the
place where such property is located. The buyer
will be deemed to have granted such security to
us and we may retain such property as collateral
security for such buyers obligations to us;
(x) to take such other action as we deem necessary
or appropriate.
If we resell the property under paragraph (iv) above,
the defaulting buyer shall be liable for payment of
any deficiency between the total amount originally
due to us and the price obtained upon resale as well
as for all reasonable costs, expenses, damages, legal
fees and commissions and premiums of whatever
kind associated with both sales or otherwise arising
from the default. If we pay any amount to the seller
under paragraph (v) above, the buyer acknowledges
that Christies shall have all of the rights of the seller,
however arising, to pursue the buyer for such amount.
(h) Failure to collect purchases
Where purchases are not collected within two calendar
days from the date of the sale, whether or not payment
has been made, we shall be permitted to remove the
property to a third party warehouse at the buyers
expense, and only release the items after payment in full
has been made of removal, storage, handling, and any
other costs reasonably incurred, together with payment
of all other amounts due to us.
(i) Selling Property at Christies
In addition to expenses such as transport, all
consignors pay a commission according to a fixed
scale of charges based upon the value of the property
sold by the consignor at Christies in a calendar year.
Commissions are charged on a sale by sale basis.
5. LIMITED WARRANTY
In addition to Christies liability to buyers set out in
clause 2 of these Conditions, but subject to the terms
and conditions of this paragraph, Christies warrants for
a period of five years from the date of the sale that any
property described in headings printed in UPPER CASE
TYPE (i.e. headings having all capital-letter type) in
this catalogue (as such description may be amended by
any saleroom notice or announcement) which is stated
without qualification to be the work of a named author
or authorship, is authentic and not a forgery. The term
author or authorship refers to the creator of the
property or to the period, culture, source or origin, as the
case may be, with which the creation of such property
is identified in the UPPER CASE description of the
property in this catalogue. Only UPPER CASE TYPE
headings of lots in this catalogue indicate what is being
warranted by Christies. Christies warranty does not
apply to supplemental material which appears below
the UPPER CASE TYPE headings of each lot and
Christies is not responsible for any errors or omissions
in such material. The terms used in the headings are
further explained in Important Notices and Explanation
of Cataloguing Practice. The warranty does not apply
to any heading which is stated to represent a qualified
opinion. The warranty is subject to the following:
(i) It does not apply where (a) the catalogue
description or saleroom notice corresponded
to the generally accepted opinion of scholars
or experts at the date of the sale or fairly
indicated that there was a conflict of opinions;
or (b) correct identification of a lot can be
demonstrated only by means of either a
scientific process not generally accepted for
use until after publication of the catalogue or
a process which at the date of publication of
the catalogue was unreasonably expensive or
impractical or likely to have caused damage to
the property.
(ii) The benefits of the warranty are not assignable
and shall apply only to the original buyer of the
lot as shown on the invoice originally issued by
Christies when the lot was sold at auction.
(iii) The original buyer must have remained the
owner of the lot without disposing of any
interest in it to any third party.
(iv) The buyers sole and exclusive remedy against
Christies and the seller, in place of any other
remedy which might be available, is the
cancellation of the sale and the refund of the
original purchase price paid for the lot. Neither
Christies nor the seller will be liable for any
special, incidental or consequential damages
including, without limitation, loss of profits
nor for interest.
(v) The buyer must give written notice of claim
to us within five years from the date of the
auction. It is Christies general policy, and
Christies shall have the right, to require the
buyer to obtain the written opinions of two
recognised experts in the field, mutually
acceptable to Christies and the buyer, before
Christies decides whether or not to cancel the
sale under the warranty.
(vi) The buyer must return the lot to the Christies
saleroom at which it was purchased in the same
condition as at the time of the sale.
6. COPYRIGHT
The copyright in all images, illustrations and written
material produced by or for Christies relating to a
lot including the contents of this catalogue, is and
shall remain at all times the property of Christies
and shall not be used by the buyer, nor by anyone
else, without our prior written consent. Christies
and the seller make no representation or warranty
that the buyer of a property will acquire any
copyright or other reproduction rights in it.
7. SEVERABILITY
If any part of these Conditions of Sale is found by
any court to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable,
that part shall be discounted and the rest of the
conditions shall continue to be valid to the fullest
extent permitted by law.
8. LAW AND JURISDICTION
The rights and obligations of the parties with
respect to these Conditions of Sale, the conduct of
the auction and any matters connected with any
of the foregoing shall be governed and interpreted
by the laws of England. By bidding at auction,
whether present in person or by agent, by written
bid, telephone or other means, the buyer shall
be deemed to have submitted, for the benefit of
Christies, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts
of the United Kingdom.

I request Christies to bid on the following lots up to the
maximum price I have indicated for each lot. I understand
that if my bid is successful, the purchase price will be the
sum of my final bid plus a buyers premium of 25% of the
final bid price of each lot up to and including 50,000,
20% of the excess of the hammer price above 50,000 and
up to and including 1,000,000 and 12% of the excess of
the hammer price above 1,000,000, together with any
VAT chargeable on the final bid and the buyers premium.

Christies South Kensington is not able to notify successful
bidders by telephone. While Invoices are sent out by mail
after the auction we do not accept responsibility for notifying
you of the result of your bid. Buyers are requested to contact
us by telephone or in person as soon as possible after the
sale to obtain details of the outcome of their bids to avoid
incurring unnecessary storage charges.
I understand that Christies provides the service of executing
absentee bids for the convenience of clients and that Christies
is not responsible for failing to execute bids or for errors
relating to execution of bids. On my behalf, Christies will try
to purchase these lots for the lowest possible price, taking into
account the reserve and other bids. Absentee bids submitted
on no reserve lots will, in the absence of a higher bid, be
executed at approximately 50% of the low pre-sale estimate
or at the amount of the bid if it is less than 50% of the low
pre-sale estimate. If identical absentee bids are received for
the same lot, the written bid received first by Christies will
take precedence. Please contact the Telephone Bid office at
least 24 hours in advance of the sale to make arrangements for
telephone bidding. Tel: +44 (0)20 7752 3225
All bids are subject to the terms of the Conditions of Sale
and Limited Warranty printed in each Christies catalogue.
