Pictures by Archibald Thorburn, Jason Partner, and James Allen were just some of the lots sold at our General Auction yesterday. It wasn't only original works of art making the money though - silver, ceramics, and furniture sold well too. A guillotine and headless skeleton (surely not...) both found new homes, as did a bunch of peacock feathers (£40) - just some of the more unusual items. It was the West German pottery that surprised us though with the hammer falling at prices well beyond reserve figures.
The Cloisters Fair stalls tomorrow at St Andrew's Hall (Saturday, 15th November) and we'll be offering unsold lots to the general public as is our practice. It affords sellers "two bites of the cherry" and is a unique aspect of our service. So, if you want to pick up some bargains, make sure you come and visit us between 9am and 4pm tomorrow.
