THIS SALE’S TEAM

Mark WilkinsonHead of Interiors

LOTS OF IRANIAN /PERSIAN ORIGINBidders are kindly reminded that some countries (such as the USA and Canada) prohibit

or restrict the purchase and import of Iranian origin “works of conventional craftsmanship”

(works that are not by a recognized artist and/or that have a function, for example: bowls, tiles,

ornamental boxes and carpets).

“Informational materials”(such as paintings, drawings and pastels, executed entirely by hand,

collages and similar decorative plaques, framed or not framed; original engravings, prints and

lithographs, printed books, newspapers and manuscripts) are not subject to the restrictions.

All bidders are responsible for familiarizing themselves with the laws that apply to them and

ensuring that they do not bid on or import property in contravention of relevant sanctions or

trade embargoes.

LOTS CONTAINING IVORYThe USA has recently changed its policy on the import of property containing elephant ivory.

Only Asian Elephant ivory may be imported into the USA, and imports must be accompanied

by DNA analysis and confrmation the object is more than 100 years old. We 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 into the USA. A buyer’s inability to

export or import a lot is not a basis for cancelling their purchase.

24 FEBRUARY 2014 · AN URBAN LEGEND

‘I have always been interested in Myths and Folk Stories

for as long as I can remember. For a child they offer a

means of making sense of the world. They represent

a series of lessons that work on both a practical and a

psychological level. They are fundamental to humanity

and have always been with us and we ignore them at

our peril. Quite often over the years, I have tried to find

a place where I could learn more about Britain's rich folk

heritage only to discover that we don't actually have any

such institution. This is strange really when we produce

so much of it. Over the past fifteen years I've become

increasingly involved with the customs themselves, not

only going to witness them but also taking part when

invited to do so. They represent a moment out of time,

where the norms of existence are bent or forgotten.

While we are rooted in the here and now, they help to put

us in touch with our past and help to build community

spirit, foster an interest in where we have come from

and the things that are important to us. It was with

this in mind that I decided to look into opening the UK's

first ever Museum dedicated solely to researching and

celebrating our native customs and traditions.’

‘Folklore can be seen as being a body of expressive

culture, traditional art, literature, knowledge, and

practice that is disseminated largely through oral

communication and behavioural example. It comes

under the heading 'intangible heritage' due to its nature

and having been deemed to be 'low culture' for so long.

Many unlikely things could be thought of as folklore or

folk culture, such as urban legends, children's rhymes,

conspiracy theories, UFO abduction reports, graffiti and

roadside memorial tributes for example. It is a hard

thing to pin down and no one description will suffice.

Most often people might think of folklore as something

that is simply 'old', 'rural' or 'dying out'. In fact folklore,

while it connects people with their past, is also being

created on a daily basis and is a great cultural signifier. It

is vital our native heritage is researched and maintained

for future generations. I see the museum as filling

a yawning gap within the cultural landscape of this

country, and as a means for people from all walks of life

to gain knowledge, and a deeper understanding, of our

unique folk culture.

Folk culture runs through our lives in ways people don't

always recognise, from street slang to urban myths.

We construct ritual and give it meaning everyday in

response to fundamental human desires. We have

constructed wayside shrines ever since the first traveller

was killed on a road and we still do it when a bicycle is

painted white and chained to the railings close to where

a cyclist was killed. The Museum of British Folklore will

reflect what it means to be human in the 21st century

and will draw on the customs and traditions of the

UK to show the world the things we hold dear and

how they resonate in the wider community and the

commonality we all have as human beings.’

The Museum of British Folklore is currently looking for

land to build on and the funds to build with. To find out

more visit www.museumofbritishfolklore.com.

24 FEBRUARY 2014 · AN URBAN LEGEND

AT HOME

WITH

SIMON COSTIN

Describe your home in three words?

Eclectic, personal, magical.

How do you choose pieces for your home?

I’ve always felt that the objects I have in my home found

me, rather than the other way around. It is very much a

natural accumulation as I tend to be drawn towards things

with a certain forlorn sensibility. I keep on adding and

moving things around in order to set up new dialogues

between objects and the context I put them into.

Where do you discover them?

I am often to be found in flea markets in London, Paris

and New York. In the UK I also go to Kempton Antique

Market and Ardingly Antique Market. Wherever I visit I

can usually sniff out the local junk and bric-a-brac shops.

What’s your advice to the novice collector?

Be ruled by the heart, not the head.

If you could see one era revived in 2015, what would it be?

The Decadent Movement or Vienna Secession.

Whose style most inspires you?

Gabriele D'Annunzio and his house in Italy.

What is your favourite building in London?

Dennis Severs House in Spitalfields.

Which room do you spend most time in?

I work from home so tend to be either in the studio, at

the top of the house, where it is very light and quiet or in

the kitchen if I’m writing as its closer to the kettle.

In another life I’d be a… Shaman.

If I could live anywhere else in the world I’d live in…

Italy, probably close to the Garda Lakes.

If I could own something I’ll never have the chance to it

would be… The Kunstkammer of Rudolf II.

Why don’t more people… Read more and learn to

tolerate each other if they can’t find it in themselves

to love.

The last great book I read was… The Goldfinch by

Donna Tartt.

My most recent wonderful discovery was…

Snowshill Manor in Worcestershire.

If I could share a nightcap with anyone it would be…

Angela Carter.

If I could breakfast with anyone it would be…

Alone, I’m terrible in the mornings!

On my coffee table is… A pile of films to be watched.

By my nightstand is… The Great God Pan by

Arthur Machen.

Great style is… Knowing what you like and not being

afraid to live with it.

Home is where… Friends and loved ones meet.

Reference is made for damage and/or restoration on

the illustrated lots only. The absence of such a reference

does not imply that a lot is free from defects nor does

any reference to particular defects imply the absence of

others. Such information is given for guidance only and

the condition of any lot and the nature and extent of any

damage or restoration should be confirmed by examination

prior to the sale. In this connection you are specifically

requested to read Condition 2 of the Conditions of Sale.

appropriately qualified electrician.

• In respect of mechanical pieces such as clocks, no

representation is made or warranty given that any such

item is in working order and nothing in the catalogue

description should be taken as such.

All You Need to KnowA GUIDE TO NON-VAT RELATED SYMBOLS

• No reserveIn these cases the lot is sold without reserve.

~ Property incorporating materials from endangered and other protected speciesPlease see “Property Incorporating Protected Species” for further information.λ Artist’s Resale Right (‘Droit de Suite’) In these cases the lot is subject to Artist’s Resale Right. The buyer agrees to pay to Christie’s 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 50,0003.00% between 50,000.01 and 200,0001.00% between 200,000.01 and 350,0000.50% between 350,000.01 and 500,0000.25% 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.

∆ Christie’s InterestFrom time to time, Christie’s 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, Christie’s 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 by the symbol º next to the lot number. This symbol will be used both in cases where Christie’s holds the financial interest on its own, and in cases where Christie’s has financed all or a part of such interest through a third party. Such third parties generally benefit financially if a guaranteed lot is sold successfully and may incur a loss if the sale is not successful. Where Christie’s has an ownership or financial interest in every lot in the catalogue, Christie’s will not designate each lot with a symbol, but will state its interest at the front of the catalogue.

LOTS OF IRANIAN/PERSIAN ORIGIN

Bidders are kindly reminded that some countries (such as the USA and Canada) prohibit or restrict the purchase and import of Iranian origin “works of conventional craftsmanship” (works that are not by a recognized artist and/or that have a function, for example: bowls, tiles, ornamental boxes and carpets).

“Informational materials” (such as paintings, drawings and pastels, executed entirely by hand, collages and similar decorative plaques, framed or not framed; original engravings, prints and lithographs, printed books, newspapers and manuscripts) are not subject to the restrictions.

All bidders are responsible for familiarizing themselves with the laws that apply to them and ensuring that they do not bid on or import property in contravention of relevant sanctions or trade embargoes.

If Christie’s cancels a sale due to any sanction or trade embargoes, the successful bidder will be accountable for any shortfall between the total amount originally due to us and the proceeds from a resale of the property.

PROPERTY INCORPORATING 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 client’s 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 Christie’s 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 confrmation 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 scientifc confrmation of species and in some cases an additional confrmation of age. We have not obtained such confrmations prior to sale (unless specifcally indicated) and buyers will be responsible for the costs of any such additional confrmations or opinions required for their proposed import into the USA.

A buyer’s inability to export or import any lot containing elephant ivory or other wildlife material is not a basis for cancelling the purchase.

1 CHRISTIE'S AS AGENTExcept as otherwise stated Christie’s 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 CONDITIONLots 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,

Christie’s 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 All You

Need to Know section of the catalogue, which appears

after the catalogue entries.

c Attribution etc

Any statements made by Christie’s 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 Christie’s 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 admissionChristie’s 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 biddingProspective 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 principalWhen making a bid, a bidder is accepting personal liability to pay the purchase price, including the buyer’s premium and all applicable taxes, plus all other applicable charges, unless it has been explicitly agreed in writing with Christie’s before the commencement of the sale that the bidder is acting as agent on behalf of an identified third party acceptable to Christie’s, and that Christie’s will only look to the principal for payment.

d Absentee bidsWe 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 bidsIf 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 converterAt 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 imagesAt 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 ReservesUnless 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 Auctioneer’s 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 auctioneer’s 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 Buyer’s premium

In addition to the hammer price, the buyer agrees

to pay to us the buyer’s premium together with any

applicable value added tax. The buyer’s premium is

25% of the first £50,000 of the hammer price on each

lot plus 20% of the excess of the hammer price above

£50,000 up to and including £1,000,000 plus 12% of

any amount in excess of £1,000,000.

b Artist’s Resale Right (“Droit de Suite”)

If the Artist’s 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 λ next to the lot number.

c Payment and ownership

The buyer must pay the full amount due (comprising the

hammer price, buyer’s premium and any applicable taxes)

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.

d Collection of purchases

We shall be entitled to retain items sold until all

amounts due to us, or to Christie’s 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, in 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, Christie’s 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.

Conditions of Sale

These Conditions of Sale and the information set out in the All You Need to Know section of the catalogue set out the terms governing the legal relationship of Christie’s and the seller with the buyer. You should read them carefully before bidding.

11/04/14

Page 89: Christie's Interiors

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

Christie’s 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 Christie’s 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 buyer’s 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 Christie’s shall have

all of the rights of the seller, however arising, to pursue

the buyer for such amount.

h Failure to collect purchasesWhere 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 buyer’s

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 Christie’sIn 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 Christie’s in a calendar year. Commissions

are charged on a sale by sale basis.

5

LIMITED WARRANTYIn addition to Christie’s liability to buyers set out in

clause 2 of these Conditions, but subject to the terms

and conditions of this paragraph, Christie’s 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 Christie’s. Christie’s warranty does

not apply to supplemental material which appears

below the UPPER CASE TYPE headings of each

lot and Christie’s is not responsible for any errors or

omissions in such material. The terms used in the

headings are further explained in the All You Need

to Know section of the catalogue. 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 Christie’s

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 buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy against

Christie’s 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 Christie’s 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

Christie’s general policy, and Christie’s shall have

the right, to require the buyer to obtain the written

opinions of two recognised experts in the field,

mutually acceptable to Christie’s and the buyer,

before Christie’s decides whether or not to cancel

the sale under the warranty.

vi The buyer must return the lot to the Christie’s

saleroom at which it was purchased in the same

condition as at the time of the sale.

6

COPYRIGHTThe copyright in all images, illustrations and written

material produced by or for Christie’s relating to a

lot including the contents of this catalogue, is and

shall remain at all times the property of Christie’s and

shall not be used by the buyer, nor by anyone else,

without our prior written consent. Christie’s 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 SEVERABILITYIf any part of these Conditions of Sale is found by

any court to be invalid, illegal or unenforcable, 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 JURISDICTIONThe 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 Christie’s, to the exclusive jurisdiction

of the courts of the United Kingdom.

Is it like a Sealed Bid?

A little. The key difference is that a sealed bid is

a fixed sum which, if you are successful, you will

end up paying regardless, whilst a written bid is

your maximum level and you may end up paying

less than that.

What will I pay?

If you are successful, the purchase price

payable will be the aggregate of the final bid

and a buyer’s premium of 25% on each lot

up to and including £50,000 plus 20% of the

excess above £50,000 up to and including

£1,000,000 plus 12% of any sum in excess

of £1,000,000, together with any additional

applicable charges, such as VAT.

Can I change my mind?

Yes of course, but only before the auction

has begun. Contact the Bids Office as soon as

you can on +44 (0)20 7752 3225.

If I’m successful, what happens next?

We will send you an invoice and payment

information sheet to the address provided,

you can then make payment and collect your

lots. Remember, lots can be subject to

storage charges after the sale, always check

the catalogue for precise details on when

charges begin.

Can I have my items delivered?

Yes. Our Art Transport team can arrange all

your transport needs, from local deliveries to

international freight. Their telephone number

is +44 (0)20 7389 2712

1

All written bids are subject to the

Conditions of Sale and Notices printed

in the catalogue.

2

Although to be certain of buying a

lot you should attend the auction,

Christie’s will use reasonable efforts

to carry out written bids delivered to

us prior to the sale. A maximum price

should be given against each lot and

the auctioneer will bid on your behalf.

Written bids should be consistent with

the normal increment in bidding at the

relevant level.

3

If your bid is successful, the purchase

price payable will be the aggregate of

the final bid and a buyer’s premium of

25% on each lot up to and including

£50,000 plus 20% of the excess

above £50,000 up to and including

£1,000,000 plus 12% of any sum in

excess of £1,000,000, together with

any additional applicable charges, such

as VAT.

4

Please ensure you have left bids on

the correct lots and that your written

bids are received by no later than the

day before the sale begins. In certain

circumstances it may not be possible to

execute bids received after the start of

the sale.

5

If we receive written bids on a

particular lot for identical amounts,

and at the auction these are the

highest bids for the lot, it will be sold

to the person whose written bid was

received and accepted first. Written

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.

6

Please note that we do not accept

responsibility for notifying you of the

result of your bid and request that you

contact us after the sale for your result.

7

Most purchases must be cleared within

2 days of the sale unless alternative

arrangements are provided for in

the relevant catalogue, after which

time storage charges will accrue in

accordance with notices in salerooms

and/or catalogues.

8

To ensure that bids will be accepted

and that delivery of lots is not delayed,

new clients or existing clients planning

to spend sums inconsistent with

their buying history may be asked to

supply written bank or other suitable

references to Christie’s. The references

should be supplied in good time

before the sale. Collection orders for

purchased lots will not be posted.

Please enquire with Cashiers

+44 (0)20 7752 3124.

At the time of making payment for

successful bids, please inform us if you

wish to contact Christie’s Art Transport

for shipping or removal.

accepts payment by Visa and

Mastercard subject to conditions.

Switch and Delta are also accepted.

There is no surcharge for debit

card payments.

11

Export Licences: Overseas buyers,

please ensure that you are aware of

any restriction or licence requirements

for your intended purchase. If you

are unsure, please contact your local

customs authority, an international

shipper or Christie’s Art Transport on

+44 (0)20 7389 2712.

12

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.
