Wednesday 16th March – Sale Report The early Spring auction at Halls offered a good mix of silver, coloured stone jewellery, watches, coins and medallions and paintings and there was a great deal of pre-sale interest in all areas and a packed saleroom on the day. Enthusiasm for the lots on offer was helped by the local provenance on several to Linley Hall, Bishops Castle. Bidding began with a lively silver section and particular interest for five Victorian knight topped decanter labels dated London 1839 for Port, Sherry and Madeira along with two George III decanter labels for Whiskey and Port and a plated example for brandy. These had come from Linley Hall and the knights were modelled after the Edwardes family crest. Estimated at £300/500 the labels were eventually knocked down to a Buxton buyer for £1,650. Elsewhere in the silver section a Victorian four piece tea and coffee service by Robert Hennell III, London 1857-60 took £1,300, whilst a part canteen of George V Hanoverian pattern and rat tail flatware, Birmingham 1925 weighing in at 86 ounces climbed to £850.

Jewellery, especially fancy coloured stones, is popular at the moment and for the twenty lots between Lots 225 and 245 there were sixteen four figure results! The bidding tempo quickened first with an early 20th century 15ct gold three stone aquamarine necklace bringing £1,100, closely followed by a graduated amber bead necklace which outstripped an estimate of £1,000/1,500 when it realised £2,900. Two lots later a 19th century sweetheart bracelet with nine links formed as a ship’s ‘block and tackle’ sailed over an £800/1,200 forecast when the London trade parted with £2,400 to own it. This was followed by an 18ct white gold single stone diamond ring in a hallmarked shank for Birmingham 1991 which sold to the northern trade for £4,000 whilst a London buyer bidding on the internet picked up a De Beers diamond ‘Board Walk’ ring for £3,000. Top of the rosettes in this section however, went to a three stone diamond crossover ring, designed as a central brilliant cut diamond flanked to each side by a large brilliant cut diamond claw set in white metal to diamond set shoulders. Estimated at £3,000/5,000, it brought a mid- estimate £4,600 when it sparkled for a Manchester buyer. The same buyer also bought a 19th century emerald and diamond cluster ring for £3,800.


Watches continue to see high prices paid for designer brands and this auction was no exception. Here a Gentleman’s 18ct gold Rolex Oyster Perpetual day/date Superlative Chronometer wristwatch with attached 18ct president bracelet and Rolex service guarantee sold to a French internet buyer for £6,000 against an estimate of £3,000/4,000. Earlier, a lady’s 18ct gold Rolex Oyster Perpetual Datejust Chronometer wristwatch found a new home in Kent when it sold for £3,600.

The pictures section, although smaller than usual, saw some very large results. Almost straight away, Lot 290, a collection of five 18th/19th century engraved printing plates after George Richmond RA became the subject of a frenzied bidding battle. Estimated at £200/300, the plates with subjects such as The Good Shepherd and one inscribed ‘Faraday’, saw the bidding climb between a commission bidder and a determined buyer in the room. The hammer finally came down at £11,000 selling to the room bidder. This was followed by an attractive view of the Piazza Santa Maria Novella by Antonietta Brandeis (1849-1910). Consigned by a Shropshire private vendor with an estimate of £5,000/7,000, it sold to the picture trade for £9,500.

An oil painting with connections to the American civil war general Robert E. Lee, created a great deal of pre-sale interest. Attributed to Joseph Highmore (1692-1780), the painting was of either Lancelot Lee (1719-1759) or Thomas Lee (16901750) and was provenanced to Coton Hall, Alveley, Shropshire, the ancestral home of the Lee family. The American connection generated plenty of enquiries from Virginia where Thomas Lee had been president of the colony and builder of Stratford Hall, Virginia in the 1730s. However the winning bid of £7,000 (estimate £3,000/5,000) came from a London buyer bidding on the internet.
