NORTHERN ITALIAN SCHOOL (LATE 16TH CENTURY) Illustration for a thesis frontispice or ‘Conclusiones’ for a Jesuit College pen and brown ink and brown wash on paper, indented 296 x 185 mm (11 3/4 x 7 1/4 in.) watermark (Briquet 6033, which dates the paper to 1560, Trento, Italy) The present work is a design for a thesis frontispiece by a student at the Accademia degli Aristofi, the scholarly body formed within the Jesuit Collegio di Brera in Milan in 1593. Also referred to as the Accademia partenia, it was dedicated to the Virgin Mary, whose symbol of lilies also referenced the apparent purity of its students. The left half of the present works sketch depicts a well in a garden above which a waterwheel gushes forth water. Over the wheel is the Latin motto [Vna] Omnes (all together).

The iconography of the fount of sparkling water, the engineering of the wheel and the call for collaboration evokes the principles and interests of the Accademia degli Aristofi, and was an iconography first adopted by an anonymous hand circa 1597 (Biblioteca Nazionale Braidense, Milan). (Fig.1) (1) Jenifer Montagu has pointed out that the cartouche held by a putto to top right of the design would have been for the arms of the dedicatee.

VENETIAN SCHOOL (EARLY/MID-17TH CENTURY) Portrait of a Lady as Flora oil on canvas 72 x 56 cm (28 1/4 x 22 in.)

PROVENANCE: Sale, Cambi Casa d’Aste, Genoa, 30th May 2018, lot 115 (as attributed to Antonio Zanchi).

The present painting of a Lady as Flora reprises the Bella genre popular among Venetian female sitters in the 16th century. (1) Conveying an idealised sense of beauty rather than a realistic portrait, the intention was to reflect the sitter’s inner virtue. The portraits were more or less erotic according to the taste of the individual commissioning the painting.

A leading example of the Bella genre is Titian’s Flora in the Uffizi Gallery, Florence. (2) In it Flora – goddess of spring and re-birth – is depicted with long hair, and holds flowers and leaves – symbols of marital love. Beyond the Allegory however lies a portrait of a spouse to be.

Unveiling one of her breasts, the sitter shows two fingers open which presages the loss of her Virginity.

Later on in 18th-century Venice and in keeping with the Bella genre, Giovanni Battista Tiepolo (1696-1770) would also paint his own example of a Portrait of a Lady as Flora (Sotheby’s, London, 5th July 2017, lot 37).

CIRCLE OF FELICE GIANI (SAN SEBASTIANO CURONE 1758 - ROME 1823) The birth of Bacchus oil on canvas 28.5 x 33 cm (11 1/4 x 13 in.)

The present work recalls in subject and composition a drawing representing Mercurio leaving Bacchus to the care of the Nymphs of Mount Nisa by Felice Giani, in the collection of the Pinacoteca Nazionale di Bologna, Italy (national inv. 0800084172) (Fig. 1). Bacchus was the child of the Roman god Jupiter, and Semélé, a human whom Juno had tricked into asking to see Jupiter as he really was. Since Semélé was a mortal, she was burned up by the sight of Jupiter in his divine form. So Jupiter sewed the infant Bacchus into his thigh, and gave birth to him nine months later. £1,500 - 2,500

CHARLES-JOSEPH NATOIRE (NIMES 1700 - CASTEL GANDOLFO 1777) The Sacred Heart appearing to Sainte Marguerite-Marie Alacoque (1647-1690) pen and brown ink with grey wash over black chalk, within drawn lines on paper 103 x 186 mm (4 x 7 1/4 in.)

PROVENANCE: Collection S. Baglioni (stamp on the reverse) The present drawing was either executed or heavily retouched by Charles-Joseph Natoire. Perhaps inspired by Rubens’ habit of retouching drawings, and by the knowledge that Crozat and Mariette admired such sheets by Rubens, in like manner Natoire often took his own pen and brush to the drawings in his collection. (1)

During his directorship of the Académie de France in Rome (1751-1775), Natoire was a very active collector, acquiring large numbers of italian drawings. In a letter to Marigny on 17th January 1759 he wrote: ‘my sole pleasure lies in collecting some drawings by good artists and not of great value’ (2). A group of these retouched works, mostly Italian and acquired by the Comte d’Orsay (1748-1809) from Natoire’s brother, entered the Louvre before what remained of Natoire’s collection was sold at auction in Paris (3).

it is similar to such sheets as the Char du Soleil in the Louvre (INV 31417).

(3) P. Stein, Ibid., p. 175 £700 - 900

The vignette format of the present drawing suggests it is a preparatory sketch for a book illustration, which bears comparison in purpose with a preparatory drawing by Natoire for the illustration of the third book of De vita e rebus gestis Clementis undecimi pontificis maximi libri sex in the Morgan Library, New York (INV 109951).

ATTRIBUTED TO FRA SEMPLICE DA VERONA (VERONA 1589 - 1654) Three studies of a Capuchin Friar laid down with verso visible (inventory number on verso, 1026, 10) 125 x 200 mm (5 x 7 3/4 in.)

The present work draws comparison in subject and in treatment with other sheets by Fra Semplice da Verona from the Würzburg Collection in Germany and published by Stefan Morét in 2007. The drawn corpus by da Verona is thin and his drawings are rare; they most generally depict Capuchin Friars, as single studies or as part of larger compositions, in pen and brown ink and brown wash, almost always over red chalk.

40

Several of his later paintings were commissioned by the Capuchin order of which he was a member, and illustrated scenes and miracles from the life of Saint Felix of Cantalice, a Capuchin monk who was beatified in 1625.

ANDREA DE LEONE (NAPLES 1610 - 1685) Battle between the Hebrews and the Philistines with David & Goliath oil on octagonal canvas 48.5 x 62 cm (19 x 24 1/2 in.)

Painted circa 1650-1660 PROVENANCE: European private collection.

Bears inscription on the reverse David che uccide il Gigante Golia / Dipinto di Andrea da Leone The present recently rediscovered work, can be dated to the mature period of Andrea di Leone’s career as a painter of battles, when his work reflects his increasing stylistic independence from his master Aniello Falcone (Naples 1660 - 1665).

The scene of David fighting Goliath in the foreground emphasises the violent backdrop inspired by the wars of the time. Goliath’s size and distortion in the foreground are typical of De Leone’s style in his later years, as also shown in a signed painting of the same subject dating to circa 1645 in the collection of the Capodimonte Museum in Naples (inv. 8315), (fig. 1). De Leone’s sophisticated use of lapis lazuli in David’s cloak and in the sky adds drama to the composition.

Divided into two parts, the foreground remains in the shadows leaving the protagonists in the dark while the light shed on the turbulent background reveals a mass of soldiers on the battlefield. The Neapolitan practice of life drawing was key to the depiction of such battle scenes, as illustrated by the several red chalk male nudes in movement.

44

Andrea di Leone built his fame and a commercial success on his battle paintings, stimulated by important commissions, and strong market demand thereafter. The battle painting genre developed in Naples in Aniello’s Falcone workshop, and it was Andrea de Leone and Salvatore Rosa in particular who went on to explore the theme further. The genre had become a flourishing topic of the day in aristocratic European circles, and in Naples most particularly, due to the Thirty Years’ War, which had seen young Neapolitans sent to the front across Europe.

We are grateful to Miriam di Penta for her help in cataloguing this present lot.

The Art of the Frame (LOTS 166 - 200)

94

See page 6 for more information regarding fees

Over the centuries frames have served to protect and embellish a painting or work on paper; typically they offer substance and give grandeur. In the Renaissance the frame enjoyed a starring role. But over time its status has diminished to that of a simple means of support. Today the origin and significance of a frame is regularly under-appreciated, their design understood by but a few.

Traditionally artists have used frames wisely and to great effect. A flamboyant example in this sale is lot 191, a pair of carved and gilded Carlo Maratta style frames. The surface of each is in high and bold relief, and gilded in gold leaf. The common use of softwood from poplar trees allowed for such sumptuous and heavy carvings so often associated with the Florentine, Venetian and Bolognese studios. The gilding served as a source of light in dark interiors, and to dazzle when illuminated by candlelight. The effect is the creation of a highly theatrical surround and the bathing of the works within in a reflected golden glow.

In contrast is the more austere 17th century Dutch tortoiseshell frame such as lot 166. Refined, and composed of oak with ripple and wave ebonised mouldings, the hardwood determined a much more restrained architectural effect. The Dutch master frame makers of the 17th century took the art of carved mouldings to new heights and to fabulous lasting effect.

These two very different styles, one from the South, the other from the North each tell their own stories, produced at the same time during the latter part of the 17th century, they served the same essential purpose, but in effect were worlds apart, reflecting not just the local materials available, but the character of two very different cultures.

LOT 166. A DUTCH 17 TH CENTURY EBONISED AND TORTOISESHELL FRAME. Estimate £800 - 1200

01.

02.

03.

SIGHT EDGE MEASUREMENT SECTION DEPTH

DETAIL 01

DETAIL 03

This wood has been stained a dark colour – ebonised – so as not to detract from the painting itself.

Combined with the tor toiseshell, it produces the more austere frame favoured by the Dutch.

An ogee is an architectural term to describe an ‘S’-shaped profile. Think of the edge of a kitchen counter top! Here, the ogee of the frame is inlaid with tor toiseshell, an effect that was often rendered in paint rather than the real thing (see lot 172).

DETAIL 02

COUNTRY DETAIL

The sight edge is, we believe, made from an ebony veneer and treated in a machine to produce this ‘ripple and wave’ effect.

Ebony was expensive and exotic, its use therefore limited to that of a veneer, impor ted from the Dutch East Indies, ‘Dutch ripple’ frames were often produced in other areas of Europe, including Spain, as a result of the Hapsburg Empire ruling both Spain and the area we now know as the Netherlands.

In the 17th Century, Dutch interiors lacked a lot of natural light – a combination of architectural design, narrow streets in towns and the weather. Consequently, the Dutch frame-makers preferred dark designs, such as staining the wood a dark or black colour (ebonising), or utilising materials such as ebony.

This meant that the frame would not distract from the painting in low light or candlelight, in a way that a gilded frame would.

LOT 169. A SPANISH 17 TH CENTURY-STYLE PAINTED AND GILDED FRAME.

01.

Estimate £500 – 700 02.

DETAIL 01

COUNTRY DETAIL

Gilding – the process of applying gold or silver leaf (or an imitation of metal alloys) to the frame surface (wood, plaster) to spectacular effect. Gilded frames have been produced since the 12th century, and the methods employed can be quite complex.

The evolution of Spanish frame styles closely followed that of Italy. The 17th century was the pinnacle of Spanish frame making; they became known for their dramatic gilding and sculptural carvings, as well as stark ebonised finishes as illustrated in this example.

DETAIL 02 A Cavetto sight edge is a concave moulding, usually a quar ter-circle. The word comes from Italian, and from the Latin for ‘hollow’. A concave moulding of a full semi-circle is called a ‘scotia’.

LOT 172. AN ITALIAN 18 TH/19 TH CENTURY FAUX TORTOISESHELL PAINTED AND CARVED MOULDING FRAME.

02.

Estimate £800 – 1200 01.

DETAIL 01

COUNTRY DETAIL

This detail shows incised scrolling foliage on punch work. Punch work refers to an intricate decoration made by ‘stamping’ the frame with small pattered punches to create a textured pattern. We think this was used to diffuse the light falling on the frame, and to add texture.

Italy was the centre of frame making from the 16th century onwards. The country’s craftsmen became known for their gilding, ornamentation and ar tistic beauty. Each region developed their own style e.g.

Venetian, Florentine or Bolognese. The basic ‘cassetta’ (little box) frame originated in Italy and has become a staple of frame making ever since.

DETAIL 02 Here, the hollow is faux tor toiseshell (see lot 166) – a painted effect far cheaper to produce!

LOT 174. A LOUIS XVI CARVED AND GILDED COMPOSITION FRAME. Estimate £400 - £600

01.

DETAIL 01

COUNTRY DETAIL

This egg-and-dark pattern will be widely recognised from Classic architectural detailing and was commonly used on frames – a continuously carved or cast ornament, consisting of alternating egg and arrow-shaped motifs.

Louis XIV, XV and XVI frame styles represent the ‘golden age of frame making’. France became known for spectacular frames, ornamental carving, gilding and other designs as illustrated in this lot. Later in the period, ‘compo’ (plaster) accompanied the wooden carvings, as also shown in this example.

Each King’s style influenced frame making in a different way. For example, frames often incorporated sun flowers in homage to the Sun King, Louis XIV.

02.

DETAIL 02 This is a pearl course, which perhaps needs no fur ther explanation! They are also referred to as beaded, when the shapes are bigger.

03.

DETAIL 03 Lamb’s tongue sight edge – lamb’s tongue ornamentation was commonly used in frame making – a continuous pattern said to represent a lamb’s tongue, cast or carved into the wood.

101

LOT 179. AN ENGLISH 18TH CENTURY VENETIAN-STYLE GILTWOOD CARVED SANSOVINO FRAME Estimate £700 - 1000 01.

DETAIL 01

COUNTRY DETAIL

A Sansovino frame is a par ticular type of Venetian frame, named after Jacopo Sansovino, who was an architect and sculptor. The are known for their carved, overlapping scrolls, garlands of fruit, and – as shown in this example – cherubs.

In the 17th and 18th centuries, English frame designs were greatly influenced by French and Dutch styles, although this par ticular lot demonstrates a strong Italian influence. Frames were often mass produced, using oak and later ‘compo’ (plaster). In the 19th century, many fine designs were produced, reflecting the Pre-Raphaelite and Ar ts and Crafts movements.

03.

DETAIL 02 Venetian-style – as can be seen here, this style was very ornamental, with lavish embellishments and rich colours.

The absence of mention related to prior restorations in the catalogue descriptions does not imply that the good is exempt thereof.

Photographs of any Lot provided by CA Ltd are for indicative purposes only and are not deemed to be a precise representation of the said Lot. The Buyer is advised to seek independent expert advice in order to be assured of the authenticity and true state of the good.

1.4 Inspection Prior to auction, prospective purchasers are strongly advised to personally examine any property in which they are interested to satisfy themselves in relation to matters which may concern them.

1.5 Condition report CA Ltd may issue a Condition Report on request prior to the sale.

This Condition Report is for identification purposes only and cannot be considered as giving a precise account of the Lot’s true state. Thus, some imperfections and faults may not be accounted for in the Condition Report.

As aforementioned, and in the absence of any contractual value of the Condition report, it is the Buyer’s sole duty to inspect in person the Lot in order to be assured of its true condition and CA Ltd shall not be responsible for assertions within the Condition Report hereto.

1.6 Electricals All electrical items are sold as seen and CA Ltd offers no guarantee as to the working condition of such items or their safety.

It is the Buyer’s duty to take necessary steps to be assured that the Lot is safe for normal use.

1.7 Estimates Estimates are based on various factors inherent to the situation of the market at the time of the sale, as well as considerations such as the condition, rarity, or quality of the item etc.

Estimates are only indicative and represent the opinion of CA Ltd. Estimates provided by CA Ltd cannot constitute a guarantee as to the value of the good. Subsequently, goods may sell at prices lower or higher than the provided estimates.

1.8 Reserves Many Lots are offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum sale price. The reserve will never exceed the low estimate printed in the catalogue. CA Ltd may open the bidding on any Lot below the reserve by placing a bid on behalf of the seller, and may in their discretion continue to bid up to the reserve price. This can be achieved by bidding in response to other bidders or alternatively by placing consecutive bids.

1.9 Registration to the sale New bidders will need to register prior to the sale. It is strongly advised bidders register at least 24 hours before the sale. Registration thereafter shall be at the auctioneer’s entire discretion.

International bidders may be required to register 48 hours before the sale and to submit bank details.

A deposit may be requested prior to each sale.

Failure to register shall result in the impossibility for the bidder to purchase a Lot.

Execution of Commission bids is a free service provided to help clients and CA Ltd does not accept liability for any failure to execute a Commission bid or for errors and omissions in connection with it.

Commission bids shall be executed at the lowest possible price, subject to competing bids and reserves. Although CA Ltd will endeavour to inform Buyers, it is the Buyer’s responsibility to check if they have been successful in purchasing a Lot. In the event of multiple commission bids set at the same price, the first registered commission bid will take priority.

2.4 Telephone bids If a bidder is not able to attend in person an auction, CA Ltd will use reasonable efforts to contact prospective Buyers who make arrangements prior to commencement of the sale to bid by telephone.

CA Ltd cannot be held responsible in the event of issues affecting connectivity, resulting in the loss of a chance of purchasing the Lot for the Bidder.

2.5 Internet bids Some sales may be available to internet bidding, as well as personal attendance. In this event, CA Ltd shall not be held responsible for issues affecting connection. In addition to having our own in-house online bidding platform, some sales are also offered with online live bidding by third party platforms, CA Ltd is not responsible for any issues that may arise during registration or utilising said platforms.

3. CONTRACT FORMATION AND EFFECTS

3.1 Contract of sale The contract of sale is between the Buyer and the Seller.

The Buyer shall be the bidder at the highest price at the fall of the hammer. The sale is deemed complete once the auctioneer announces its completion by the fall of the hammer and the contract shall be binding thereafter between the Buyer and the Seller and CA Ltd. When a Buyer purchases multiple Lots, each Lot is the subject of a separate contract of sale.

3.2 Transfer of property Property of the goods shall pass to the Buyer only once CA Ltd has received full payment for the goods, this includes the price at the fall of the hammer as well as Buyer’s premium, relevant taxes, and costs in relation to shipping.

3.3 Transfer of risks Purchased Lots shall be at the Buyer’s risk in all respects from the fall of the hammer, and neither CA Ltd nor their agents shall be responsible for any loss or damage of any kind, whether caused by negligence or otherwise.

3.4 Cancellation of the sale At the fall of the hammer, the contract is formed between the Buyer and CA Ltd and is binding thereafter.

Under no circumstances can the Buyer cancel the sale.

CA Ltd may at its entire discretion, during or after the auction, cancel the sale of the Lot or reoffer and resell the Lot if it becomes aware of any error or dispute of any nature, whether or not title has passed to the Buyer, and up to a period of 6 months after the said sale.

Grounds for cancellation under the present section shall include but not be limited to any dispute relating to the attribution or provenance of the Lot, ownership and title, fraud or deceit, lack of relevant licences or certificates, any subsequent changes in domestic or international legislations restricting the sale of export of goods etc.

In the event of internet-only auctions (where are no offered advanced physical viewing times), the Buyer shall have a 14 day right to retract, after receipt of the Lot, under EU Consumer Law. Public auctions are not covered by this right to retract.

4. AFTER THE SALE

4.1 Payment All purchased lots must be paid for on the day of the auction. Commission bids must be paid for no later than the day after the auction. Payment must be made by cash, debit, credit card or bank transfer. We do not accept cheques. We do not currently accept American Express.

CA ltd adheres strictly to current anti-money laundering regulations and reserves the right to refuse payment or cancel the sale of any lot, should suspicion or evidence of regulation infringement arise. The 2020 guidelines reference ‘Art Works’, but are as yet to be fully defined. As such, CA Ltd reserves the right to adapt buying/selling rules at any time, in order to maintain compliance.

Cash payments shall not be receivable for amounts over €10,000, regardless of the payment being for one or multiple Lots. As of 2020, new directives also extend to other forms of payment where the amount is in excess of €10,000 and this may require further information sharing covering both buyers and sellers.

Should it encounter contravention of said regulations, or is unable to bring buyers/sellers into line with said regulations through advice and support, CA ltd reserves the right to cancel any lot transaction and offer said lots to underbidders and where applicable will notify the relevant authority of the suspected contravention if deemed intentional.

Title will not pass to the Buyer until CA Ltd has received all amounts due to them in cleared funds even if the Lot has been released to the Buyer.

4.2 Buyer’s Premium The Buyer will pay CA Ltd a premium of 25% on the hammer price plus VAT on that commission on the first £500,000 and 12% plus VAT on the balance thereafter. A Buyer’s Premium of 21% plus VAT is charged on Wine & Spirits Lots.

The VAT payable varies by symbol as below: No Symbol: The standard rate of VAT is charged on the premium under the Auctioneers Margin Scheme in accordance with Art. 333 of 2006/112/EC.

CA Ltd cannot be held responsible for any damages that may be incurred to goods prior to the fall of the hammer.

Under EU Regulations related to the trade of cultural goods, export licences may be required for export outside of the European Union if the item’s value exceeds the EU threshold. Under UK Law, a licence may also be required for intra-EU trade.

Licenses are issued by Arts Council England and it is the Buyer’s duty to obtain them. Some countries restrict the import of specific cultural goods. For example, the United States prohibits the import of pre-Columbian monumental or architectural sculpture or murals, as well as any cultural goods in provenance from some countries subject to armed conflicts.

The Buyer must verify local legislation prior to the sale in order to be assured that import or export is possible.

4.11 CITES Import and export restrictions Certain endangered species are listed in the CITES Convention. Listed specimens and any parts or products thereof are subject to issuance of an export permit when leaving the European Union.

Appendix I species, are also subject to issuance of a prior import permit from the country in which the goods are to be imported. Such permits are necessary before applying for export permits and it is the Buyer’s duty to initiate the proceedings with the relevant authority.

The Buyer must be aware that certain countries prohibit the import of some species or any parts or products derived thereof. For example, the United States prohibit all import of African elephant ivory, and any item containing parts that may merely resemble African elephant ivory must be accompanied by relevant documentation stating it is not the latter.

Worked items that are dated before 1947 are exempt from import restrictions for intra-EU trade and shall not require export licences.

Please be aware that all Lots marked with the symbol λ are subject to CITES regulations.

4.12 Limitation of liability regarding CITES export licenses Where licences are required for importing or exporting outside of the European Union, it is the Buyer’s duty to obtain them.

CA Ltd cannot be held responsible if the Buyer’s application for an export permit is unsuccessful. Subsequently, in the event of failure thereof, CA Ltd shall not permit cancellation or rescission of the sale.

4.13 Warranties CA Ltd does not provide the Buyer with warranties relating to any Lot, unless required by Law.

4.14 Authenticity warranty In the event of a Lot being sold as authentic under the catalogue description and the Buyer

The Buyer shall give notice to CA Ltd within 28 days from knowledge or any event giving reasons for suspecting that the item is not authentic, and within one year of the said sale. Any claim thereafter shall not be receivable. For the purposes of the present paragraph, authenticity shall be defined as the state of a Lot that is genuine and not a forgery or a copy.

5. ANTIQUITIES AND TRIBAL ART

5.1 Import and export restrictions and regulations Archaeological goods over 100 years of age, unless covered by exemption of limited scientific interest, will require an EU Licence for export to a third country, regardless of their value.

It is recommended that the Buyer contact the Export Licensing Unit at Arts Council England in order to be assured the good is or not of limited archaeological or scientific interest.

Archaeological goods found on United-Kingdom soil or in UK territorial waters over 50 years of age shall require a UK Licence regardless of their value and regardless of the export destination. Other archaeological objects regardless of their origin will require an Individual Licence or OGEL depending on their value.

Both European-Union and UK Licences may be required simultaneously for some items. It is the Buyer’s duty to undertake the necessary steps. CA Ltd cannot be held responsible and the sale cannot be cancelled in the event of failure to obtain the relevant licences.

6. JEWELLERY

6.1 Gemstone treatment and estimates Many gemstones on the market have been treated so as to augment their appearance, in a reversible or permanent manner. Treatments under the present section may be but not limited to:

• Heat treatment to enhance sapphires and rubies’ clarity and colour • Oil and resin treatments for emeralds applied in different ways, to enhance clarity of the stone • Staining • Irradiation • Coating

Estimates provided by CA Ltd are deemed to be based on the fact that the gemstone may have been subject to any type of treatment in the past. CA Ltd shall not be responsible in the absence of mention thereof.

A certificate may be issued by a laboratory, providing with detailed information on the condition of the gemstone and any treatment applied thereto. The Buyer must be aware that different laboratories have different approaches as to the degree or type of treatment for a particular gemstone.

If a certificate accompanies the Lot, the Buyer must be aware that it is merely a statement of the laboratory’s opinion and in no way can CA Ltd be held responsible for any mentions therein. Such certificates are deemed to be delivered with the Lot for informative purposes only.

6.2 Estimated weights If a stone’s exact weight appears within the body of the description, the stone has been unmounted and weighed by CA Ltd. If the weight of a stone is stated to be approximate, the stone has been assessed by CA Ltd within its setting, and the defined weight is a statement of opinion only. This information is given as a guide and bidders should satisfy themselves with regard to this information as to its accuracy.

6.3 Signatures ‘A diamond ring, by X’: When the maker’s name appears in the title, in Chiswick Auctions’ opinion the piece is by that maker.

‘A diamond ring, signed X’: Has a signature that, in Chiswick Auctions’ opinion, is authentic but may contain gemstones that are not original, or the piece may have been altered.

‘A diamond ring, mounted by X’: Has been created by the jeweller, in Chiswick Auctions’ opinion, but using stones or designs supplied by the client.

‘Maker’s mark for X’: Has a maker’s mark which in Chiswick Auctions’ opinion is authentic.

Some items may include parts or products derived from endangered species, such as ivory or coral. Such items may be subject to import or export restrictions. See section on CITES regulations for more details.

7. CLOCKS AND WATCHES

All Lots are sold as seen. Clocks and watches are therefore not deemed to be sold in working condition. Absence of reference thereof in the description does not imply that the Lot is in

109

good condition and without defects, or has been subject to repair or restoration.

CA Ltd makes no representation or warranty that any clock or watch is in working order. As clocks and watches often contain fine and complex mechanisms, bidders should be aware that a general service, change of battery or further repair work, for which the Buyer is solely responsible, may be necessary.

Most clocks and watches are likely to have been repaired in the past, and as a result may include parts that are not original thereto.

The United-States restrict the importation of watches such as Rolex, Frank Muller or Corum.

Such models can only be imported personally by the Buyer and CA Ltd cannot assist with shipping thereof.

Some watches may include leather straps derived from endangered species. Buyers may be required to obtain appropriate permits for import or export purposes in accordance with CITES regulations.

CA Ltd acts in compliance with such legislations and shall take necessary steps where required.

Subsequently, watches may be deemed sold without their straps.

8. FURNITURE

8.1 Upholstered furniture after 1950 According to The Furniture and Furnishings (Fire Safety) Regulations 1988, furniture that was upholstered after the 1st of January 1950 is subject to restrictions in the United-Kingdom.

Exempt upholstered furniture that does not meet such requirements is deemed sold for purely aesthetic purposes. CA Ltd shall not be responsible for later alterations to the furniture, making it unfit for sale.
