William John Huggins (1791-1845) 

The East Indiaman Ceres, in two positions, arriving off

Oil on canvas

Andrew Robertson, M.A. (1777-1835) 

Portrait miniature of Hugh Scott of Draycott (1777-1852), 

Captain of the Ceres 

Signed with monogram verso and inscribed ' Capt Scott 

by A. Robertson, 34 Gerard Street, 1815' 

8cm x 7cm, oval 

Provenance: Hugh Scott of Draycott, the sitter in the 

miniature and Captain of the Ceres, and thence by direct 

descent 

Hugh Scott was a cousin of Sir Walter Scott of 

Abbotsford (Hugh's grandfather was Sir Walter's 

Grandfather's elder brother). He is mentioned in Memoirs 

of the life of Walter Scott as "Captain Hugh Scott of the 

East India Company's Naval Service (now of Draycote 

House, near Derby), second son to the late Laird of 

Raeburn" page 234. It seems that Hugh Scott gave 

Walter Scott 24 pieces of Chinese wallpaper each 12 foot 

high by four foot wide enough to "finish the drawing room 

and two bedrooms (at Abbotsford)". The wallpaper is still 

on the walls at Abbotsford and it would seem highly 

probable that Hugh Scott brought this gift back with him 

on the Ceres from China. 

Sir Walter Scott's brother, Robert Scott, of Rosebank, 

was also in the East India Company and the last 

Commander of the Neptune. 

By the standards of her day, Ceres was a large East Indiaman and was built by John Perry in his 

Thames-side yard at Blackwall. Launched on 28th January 1797, she was measured at 1,430 tons 

and was 144 feet in length with a 43 foot beam. Originally owned by Thomas Newte, her first voyage 

was to India and thence China, departing England on 6th April 1797 and returning on 22nd October 

1798. Four further round trips to China followed between 1800 and 1807, after which she was sold to 

George Stevens who appointed Captain Hugh Scott as her new master. Under Scott she completed 

four more voyages, including her final two which both took in calls at St. Helena, but after returning 

home in May 1816 she was sold again and thereafter relegated to a hulk. 

Although this location is an unusual one for Huggins, who normally employed the Channel coast off 

or near Dover, the number of similar portraits of East Indiamen by him suggests that he may have 

been retained by the E.I.C. for the purpose. It is probable that this portrait was done to mark this 

vessel's retirement in 1816 and shows her calling at the island of St. Helena, the usual watering 

place for E.I.C. ships heading to and from the East.

CONDITIONS OF BUSINESS 

June 2006 

INFORMATION FOR BUYERS 

1. Introduction. The following informative 

notes are intended to assist Buyers, 

particularly those inexperienced or new to our 

salerooms. All sales are conducted on our 

printed Conditions of Sale which are readily 

available for inspection and normally 

accompany catalogues. Our staff will be 

happy to help you if there is anything you 

do not fully understand. 

2. Agency. As auctioneers we usually contract 

as agents for the seller whose identity, for 

reasons of confidentiality, is not normally 

disclosed. Accordingly if you buy your primary 

contract is with the seller. 

3. Estimates. Estimates are designed to help 

buyers gauge what sort of sum might be 

involved for the purchase of a particular lot. 

The lower estimate may represent the 

reserve price and certainly will not be below 

it. Estimates do not include the Buyer’s 

Premium or VAT (where chargeable). 

Estimates are prepared some time before 

the sale and may be altered by 

announcement before the sale. 

They are in no sense definitive. 

4. Buyer’s Premium. The Buyer agrees to pay 

a buyer's premium on the hammer price of 

each lot purchased. The buyer's premium is 

20% of the hammer price on each lot up to 

and including £250,000, plus 12% for any 

amount in excess of £250,000. In addition 

where a lot has been purchased through or 

using the services of ATG Online Live 

Auctions, or any other live online auction 

services, a further additional charge of 3% 

is payable on the hammer price of each lot 

purchased. VAT at the prevailing rate of 15% 

is added to all of these premiums and 

additional charges as defined below. 

5. VAT. (*) indicates that VAT is payable by the 

purchaser at the standard rate (presently 

15%) on the hammer price as well as being 

an element in the buyer’s premium. This 

imposition of VAT is likely to be because the 

seller is registered for VAT within the European 

Union and is not operating the Dealers Margin 

Scheme or because VAT is due at 15% on 

importation into the UK. 

The double symbol (**) indicates that the 

lot has been imported from outside the 

European Union and the present position is that 

these lots are liable to a reduced rate 

of VAT (5%) on the gross lot price (i.e. both the 

hammer price and the buyer’s premium). Lots 

which appear without either of the above 

symbols indicate that no VAT is payable on the 

hammer price. This is because such lots are 

sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme 

and it should be noted that the VAT included 

within the Premium is not recoverable as input 

tax. 

92 

6. Descriptions and Conditions. Condition 

reports are provided on our web site or upon 

request. The absence of a report does not 

imply that a lot is without imperfections. The 

detail in a report will reflect the estimated 

value of the lot, and large numbers of such 

requests received shortly before the sale may 

not receive a response to all lots. Members of 

staff are not trained restorers or conservators 

and, particularly for higher value lots, you 

should obtain an opinion from such a 

professional. We recommend that you always 

view a lot in person. 

We are, primarily, agents for the seller. We 

are dependent on information provided by the 

seller and whilst we may inspect lots and act 

reasonably in taking a general view about 

them we are normally unable to carry out a 

detailed or any examination of lots in order to 

ascertain their condition in the way in which it 

would be wise for a buyer to do. Intending 

buyers have ample opportunity for inspection 

of goods and, therefore, accept responsibility 

for inspecting and investigating lots in which 

they may be interested. Please note carefully 

the exclusion of liability for the condition of 

lots contained in the Conditions of Sale. 

Neither the seller nor we, as the auctioneers, 

accept any responsibility for their condition. In 

particular, mechanical objects of any age are 

not guaranteed to be in working order. 

However, in so far as we have examined the 

goods and make a representation about their 

condition, we shall be liable for any defect 

which that examination ought to have 

revealed to the auctioneer but which would 

not have been revealed to the buyer had the 

buyer examined the goods. Additionally, in 

specified circumstances lots misdescribed 

because they are ‘deliberate forgeries’ may 

be returned and repayment made. There is a 

3 week time limit. (The expression ‘deliberate 

forgery’ is defined in our Conditions of Sale). 

7. Electrical goods. These are sold as 

‘antiques’ only and if bought for use must be 

checked over for compliance with safety 

regulations by a qualified electrician first. 

8. Export of goods. Buyers intending to export 

goods should ascertain (a) whether an export 

licence is required and (b) whether there is 

any specific prohibition on importing goods of 

that character because, e.g. they may contain 

prohibited materials such as ivory. Ask us if 

you need help. 

9. Bidding. Bidders may be required to 

register before the sale commences and 

lots will be invoiced to the name and address 

on the registration form. Some 

form of identification may be required if 

you are unknown to us. Please enquire 

in advance about our arrangements for 

telephone bidding. 

10. Commission bidding. Commission bids 

may be left with the auctioneers indicating 

the maximum amount to be bid excluding 

buyers’ premium. They will be executed as 

cheaply as possible having regard to the 

reserve (if any) and competing bids. If two 

buyers submit identical commission bids the 

auctioneers may prefer the first bid received. 

Please enquire in advance about our 

arrangements for the leaving of commission 

bids by telephone or FAX. 

11. Methods of Payment. As a general rule 

any cheques tendered will need to be cleared 

before removal of the goods is permitted. The 

following methods of payment are 

acceptable: 

Sterling cheque. To be drawn on a UK 

bank and made payable to ‘Dreweatts-The 

Fine Art Auction Group’. If you have a credit 

or cheque acceptance account with 

Dreweatts, you will be able to take your 

goods immediately providing the sum 

is within the agreed limit. Otherwise, it will be 

necessary to allow at least five working days 

for the cheque to clear before 

collecting your purchases 

Sterling bankers draft. This will need 

to be confirmed with the issuing bank, 

prior to acceptance 

Bank transfer. All transfers must state the 

relevant sale number, lot number and your 

bid / paddle number. If transferring from a 

foreign currency, the amount we receive must 

be the total due in pounds sterling (after 

currency conversion and the deduction of any 

bank charges). Our bank details can be found 

on the reverse of your invoice or in the sale 

catalogue under ‘Important Notices’ 

Debit cards drawn on a UK bank. There is 

no additional charge for purchases made 

with these cards. Debit cards drawn on an 

overseas bank or deferred debit cards will 

be subject to a 2% surcharge. 

Sterling cash payments of up to £8,000 and 

debit cards payments can be made at the 

Cashier’s Office, either during or after the 

sale. 

12. Collection and storage. Please note what 

the Conditions of Sale state about collection 

and storage. It is important that goods are 

paid for and collected promptly. Any delay 

may involve the buyer in paying storage 

charges. 

13. Droit de suite royalty charges. 

From 14th February 2006 all UK art market 

professionals (which includes, but is not 

limited to; auctioneers, dealers, galleries, 

agents and other intermediaries) are required 

to collect a royalty payment for all works of 

art that have been produced by living artists. 


This payment is only calculated on qualifying 

works of art which are sold for a hammer 

price more than the UK sterling equivalent of 

EURO 1,000 – the UK sterling equivalent will 

fluctuate in line with prevailing exchange 

rates. 

It is entirely the responsibility of the buyer to 

acquaint himself with the precise EURO to UK 

Sterling exchange rate on the day of the sale 

in this regard, and the auctioneer accepts no 

responsibility whatsoever if the qualifying rate 

is different to the rate indicated. 

All items in this catalogue that are marked 

with d are potentially qualifying items, and the 

royalty charge will be applied if the hammer 

price achieved is more than the UK sterling 

equivalent of EURO 1,000. The royalty charge 

will be added to all relevant buyers’ invoices, 

and must be paid before items can be 

cleared. All royalty charges are passed on to 

the Design and Artists Copyright Society 

(‘DACS’), no handling costs or additional fees 

with respect to these charges will be retained 

by the auctioneers. 

The royalty charge that will be applied to 

qualifying items which achieve a hammer 

price of more than the UK sterling equivalent 

of EURO 1,000, but less than the UK sterling 

equivalent of EURO 50,000 is 4%. For 

qualifying items that sell for more than the UK 

sterling equivalent of EURO 50,000 a sliding 

scale of royalty charges will apply – for a 

complete list of the royalty charges and 

threshold levels, please see 

www.dacs.org.uk. There is no VAT payable on 

this royalty charge. 

TERMS OF CONSIGNMENT FOR SELLERS 

1. Interpretation. In these Terms the words 

‘you’, ‘yours’, etc. refer to the Seller and if 

the consignment of goods to us is made by 

an agent we assume that the Seller has 

authorised the consignment and that the 

consignor has the Seller’s authority to 

contract. Similarly the words ‘we’, ‘us’, etc. 

refer to the Auctioneers. 

2. Commission is charged to sellers at the 

following rates:- please enquire at our 

salerooms. 

3. Removal costs. Items for sale must be 

consigned to the sale room by any stated 

deadline and at your expense. We may be 

able to assist you with this process but any 

liability incurred to a carrier for haulage 

charges is solely your responsibility. 

4. Loss and damage of goods. 

(a) Loss and Damage Warranty - Dreweatts is 

not regulated by the FSA for the provision of 

insurance to its clients. However, Dreweatts, 

for its own protection, assumes liability for 

property consigned to it at lower pre-sale 

estimate. To justify accepting liability, 

Dreweatts makes a charge of 1.5% of the 

01635 553553 

hammer price plus VAT (subject to a 

minimum charge of £1.50) or, if unsold, our 

lower estimate of the hammer price. 

(b) If the owner of goods consigned instructs 

us in writing not to take such action, they 

then remain at owner’s risk unless and until 

the property in them passes to the Buyer or 

they are collected by or on behalf of the 

owner, and clause 4(a) is inapplicable. 

5. Illustrations. The cost of any illustrations is 

borne by you. If we consider that the Lot 

should be illustrated your permission will be 

asked first. The copyright in respect of such 

illustrations shall be the property of us, the 

auctioneers, as is the text of the catalogue. 

6. Minimum bids and our discretion. Goods 

will normally be offered subject to a reserve 

agreed between us before the sale in 

accordance with clause 7. We may sell Lots 

below the reserve provided we account to you 

for the same sale proceeds as you would 

have received had the reserve been the 

hammer price. If you specifically give us a 

“discretion” we may accept a bid of up to 

10% below the formal reserve. 

7. Reserves. 

(a) You are entitled to place prior to the 

auction a reserve on any lot consigned, being 

the minimum hammer price at which that lot 

may be sold. Reserves must be reasonable 

and we may decline to offer goods which in 

our opinion would be subject to an 

unreasonably high reserve (in which case 

goods carry the storage and insurance 

charges stipulated in these Terms of 

Consignment). 

(b) A reserve once set cannot be changed 

except with our consent. 

(c) Where a reserve has been placed only we 

may bid on your behalf and only up to the 

reserve (if any) and you may in no 

circumstances bid personally. 

8. Electrical items. These are subject to 

detailed statutory safety controls. Where such 

items are accepted for sale you accept 

responsibility for the cost of testing by 

external contractors. Goods not certified as 

safe by an electrician (unless antiques) will 

not be accepted for sale. They must be 

removed at your expense on your being 

notified. We reserve the right to dispose of 

unsafe goods as refuse, at your expense. 

9. Soft furnishings. The sale of soft 

furnishings is strictly regulated by statute law 

in the interests of fire safety. Goods found to 

infringe safety regulations will not be offered 

and must be removed at your expense. We 

reserve the right to dispose of unsafe goods 

as refuse, at your expense. 

The rights of disposal referred to in clause 8 

and 9 are subject to the provisions of The 

Torts (Interference with Goods) Act 1977, 

Schedule 1, a copy of which is available for 

inspection on request 

10. Descriptions. Please assist us with 

accurate information as to the provenance 

etc. of goods where this is relevant. There is 

strict liability for the accuracy of descriptions 

under modern consumer legislation and in 

some circumstances responsibility lies with 

sellers if inaccuracies occur. We will assume 

that you have approved the catalogue 

description of your lots unless informed to the 

contrary. Where we are obliged to return the 

price to the buyer when the lot is a deliberate 

forgery under Condition 15 of the Conditions 

of Sale and we have accounted to you for the 

proceeds of sale you agree to reimburse us 

the sale proceeds. The liability to reimburse 

the sale proceeds shall not arise where you 

are acting reasonably and honestly and are 

unaware of the forgery but we are or ought to 

have been aware of it. 

11. Unsold and withdrawn items. If an item is 

unsold it may with your consent be re-offered 

at a future sale. Where in our opinion an item 

is unsaleable you must -collect such items 

from the saleroom promptly on being so 

informed. Otherwise, storage charges may be 

incurred. We reserve the right to charge for 

storage in these circumstances at a 

reasonable daily rate. 

12. Withdrawn and bought in items. These 

are liable to incur a charge of 15 % plus VAT 

on being bought in or withdrawn after being 

catalogued. 

13. Conditions of Sale. You agree that all 

goods will be sold on our Conditions of Sale. 

In particular you undertake that you have the 

right to sell the goods either as owner or 

agent for the owner. You undertake to 

compensate us and any buyer or third party 

for all losses liabilities and expenses incurred 

in respect of and as a result of any breach of 

this undertaking. 

14. Authority to deduct commission and 

expenses and retain premium and interest. 

(a) You authorise us to deduct commission at 

the stated rate and all expenses incurred for 

your account from the hammer price and 

consent to our right to retain beneficially the 

premium paid by the buyer in accordance 

with our Conditions of Sale and any interest 

earned on the sale proceeds until the date of 

settlement. 

(b) You authorise us in our discretion to 

negotiate a sale by private treaty not later 

than the close of business after the day of 

the sale in the case of lots unsold at auction, 

in which case the same charges will be 

payable as if such lots had been sold at 

auction and so far as appropriate these Terms 

apply. 

93

15. Warehousing. We disclaim all liability for 

goods delivered to our saleroom without 

sufficient sale instructions and reserve the 

right to make minimum warehousing charge 

of £10 per lot per day. Unsold lots are subject 

to the same charges if you do not remove 

them within a reasonable time of notification. 

If not removed within three weeks we reserve 

the right to sell them and defray charges 

from any net proceeds of sale or at your 

expense to consign them to the local 

authority for disposal. 

16. Settlement. After sale settlement of the 

net sum due to you normally takes place 

within 21 days of the sale (by crossed 

cheque to the seller) unless the buyer has not 

paid for the goods. In this case no settlement 

will then be made but we will take your 

instructions in the light of our Conditions of 

Sale. You authorise any sums owed by you to 

us on other transactions to be deducted from 

the sale proceeds. You must note the liability 

to reimburse the proceeds of sale to us as 

under the circumstances provided for in 

Condition 10 above. You should therefore 

bear this potential liability in mind before 

parting with the proceeds of sale until the 

expiry of 21 days from the date of sale. 

CONDITIONS OF SALE 

The Fine Art Auction Group Limited trading as 

Dreweatts Fine Art (DNFA) carries on business 

with bidders, buyers and all those present in 

the auction room prior to or in connection

made with the intention of deceiving as to 

authorship, origin, date, age, period, culture 

or source but which is unequivocally 

described in the catalogue as being the work 

of a particular creator and which at the date 

of the sale had a value materially less than it 

would have had if it had been in accordance 

with the description; 

(c) “hammer price” means the level of bidding 

reached (at or above any reserve) when the 

auctioneer brings down the hammer; 

(d) “terms of consignment” means the 

stipulated terms and rates of commission on 

which Dreweatts accepts instructions from

any premium, Value Added Tax chargeable 

and any additional charges payable by a 

defaulting buyer under these Conditions; 

94 

(f) “sale proceeds” means the net amount 

due to the seller, being the hammer price of 

the lot sold less commission at the stated 

rate, Value Added Tax chargeable and any 

other amounts due to us by the seller in 

whatever capacity and however arising;

(a) Bidders are required to register their 

particulars before bidding and to satisfy any 

security arrangements before entering the 

auction room to view or bid; 

(b) the maker of the highest bid accepted by 

the auctioneer conducting the sale shall be 

the buyer at the hammer price and any 

dispute about a bid shall be settled at the 

auctioneer’s absolute discretion by reoffering 

the Lot during the course of the auction or 

otherwise. The auctioneer shall act 

reasonably in exercising this discretion. 

(c) Bidders shall be deemed to act as 

principals. 

(2) Our right to bid on behalf of the seller is 

expressly reserved up to the amount of any 

reserve and the right to refuse any bid is also 

reserved. 

3. INCREMENTS 

Bidding increments shall be at the 

auctioneer’s sole discretion. 

4. THE PURCHASE PRICE 

together with a premium thereon of 23% 

which shall include VAT on the premium at 

the rate imposed by law. In addition, where a 

lot is bought through or using the services of 

ATG Live Auctions or any other live internet 

services, the buyer shall pay a further 

additional charge of 3% on the hammer price 

plus VAT on such additional charge at the 

rate imposed by law, resulting in such buyers 

paying the hammer price together with a total 

premium and charge of 23% plus VAT on the 

premium and charge at the rate imposed by 

law. The buyer will also be liable for any 

royalties payable under Droit de Suite as 

setout under Information for Buyers above. 

5. VALUE ADDED TAX 

Value Added Tax on the hammer price is 

imposed by law on all items affixed with an 

asterisk or double asterisk. Value Added Tax 

is charged at the appropriate rate prevailing 

by law at the date of sale and is payable by 

buyers of relevant Lots. (Please refer to 

“Information for Buyers” for a brief 

explanation of the VAT position). 

6. PAYMENT 

(1) Immediately a Lot is sold you will: 

(a) give to us, if requested, proof of identity, 

and 

(b) pay to us the total amount due or in 

such other way as is agreed by us. 

(2) Any payments by you to us may be 

applied by us towards any sums owing from 

you to us on any account whatever without 

regard to any directions of you or your agent, 

whether express or implied. 

(3)Buyers who utilise the services of ATG Live 

Auctions or any other live internet services 

are hereby informed that the payment 

method details that are provided to ATG Live

this clause, be utilised by us to settle any 

amounts owing by such buyers to us. 

7. TITLE AND COLLECTION OF PURCHASES 

(1) The ownership of any Lots purchased 

shall not pass to you until you have made 

payment in full to us of the total amount due. 

(2) You shall at your own risk and expense 

take away any lots that you have purchased 

and paid for not later than 3 working days 

following the day of the auction or upon the 

clearance of any cheque used for payment 

after which you shall be responsible for any 

removal, storage and insurance charges. 

(3) No purchase can be claimed or removed 

until it has been paid for. 

(4) Dreweatts is unable to arrange packaging 

or shipping of items. Successful buyers must 

make these arrangements independently, 

though the saleroom may be able to suggest 

specialist shipping companies who can advise 

buyers, this advice is not a recommendation 

and the saleroom is not liable for any aspect 

of the packaging and shipping process. 

Please note that the cost of packaging and 

shipping depends on the size/weight of the 

item(s) purchased, insurance requirements, 

and the shipping destination, not on the value 

of the item(s) purchased. Please note that any 

items not collected within one week of the 

sale date may be automatically removed to 

commercial storage and subject to a storage 

charge. 

8. REMEDIES FOR NON-PAYMENT OR 

FAILURE TO COLLECT PURCHASES 

(1) If any Lot is not paid for in full and taken 

away in accordance with these Conditions or 

if there is any other breach of these 

Conditions, we, as agent for the seller and on 

our own behalf, shall at our absolute 

discretion and without prejudice to any other 

rights we may have, be entitled to exercise 

one or more of the following rights and 

remedies: 


(a) to proceed against you for damages for 

breach of contract; 

(b) to rescind the sale of that Lot and/or any 

other Lots sold by us to you; 

(c) to resell the Lot (by auction or private 

treaty) in which case you shall be responsible 

for any resulting deficiency in the total 

amount due (after crediting any part payment 

and adding any resale costs). Any surplus so 

arising shall belong to the seller; 

(d) to remove, store and insure the Lot at your 

expense and, in the case of storage, either at 

our premises or elsewhere; 

(e) to charge interest at a rate not exceeding 

1.5% per month on the total amount due to 

the extent it remains unpaid for more than 3 

working days after the sale; 

(g) to retain that or any other Lot sold to you 

until you pay the total amount due; 

(h) to reject or ignore bids from you or your 

agent at future auctions or to impose 

conditions before any such bids shall be 

accepted; 

(i) to apply any proceeds of sale of other Lots 

due or in future becoming due to you towards 

the settlement of the total amount due and to 

exercise a lien (that is a right to retain 

possession of) any of your property in our 

possession for any purpose until the debt due 

is satisfied. 

(2) We shall, as agent for the seller and on 

our own behalf pursue these rights and 

remedies only so far as is reasonable to 

make appropriate recovery in respect of 

breach of these conditions 

9. THIRD PARTY LIABILITY 

All members of the public on our premises 

are there at their own risk and must note the 

lay-out of the accommodation and security 

arrangements. Accordingly neither the 

auctioneer nor our employees or agents shall 

incur liability for death or personal injury 

(except as required by law by reason of our 

negligence) or similarly for the safety of the 

property of persons visiting prior to or at a 

sale. 

10. COMMISSION BIDS 

Whilst prospective buyers are strongly 

advised to attend the auction and are always 

responsible for any decision to bid for a 

particular Lot and shall be assumed to have 

carefully inspected and satisfied themselves 

as to its condition we will if so instructed 

clearly and in writing execute bids on their 

behalf. Neither the auctioneer nor our 

employees or agents shall be responsible for 

any failure to do so save where such failure is 

unreasonable. Where two or more 

commission bids at the same level are 

recorded we reserve the right in our absolute 

discretion to prefer the first bid so made. 

01635 553553 

11. WARRANTY OF TITLE AND AVAILABILITY 

The seller warrants to the auctioneer and you 

that the seller is the true owner of the 

property consigned or is properly authorised 

by the true owner to consign it for sale and is 

able to transfer good and marketable title to 

the property free from any third party claims. 

12. AGENCY 

The auctioneer normally acts as agent only 

and disclaims any responsibility for default by 

sellers or buyers. 

13. TERMS OF SALE 

The seller acknowledges that Lots are sold 

subject to the stipulations of these Conditions 

in their entirety and on the Terms of 

Consignment as notified to the consignor at 

the time of the entry of the Lot. 

14. DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITION 

(1) Whilst we seek to describe lots accurately, 

it may be impractical for us to carry out 

exhaustive due diligence on each lot. 

Prospective buyers are given ample 

opportunities to view and inspect before any 

sale and they (and any independent experts 

on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to 

the accuracy of any description applied to a 

lot. Prospective buyers also bid on the 

understanding that, inevitably, representations 

or statements by us as to authorship, 

genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, 

condition or estimated selling price involve 

matters of opinion. We undertake that any 

such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably 

held and accept liability for opinions given 

negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the 

foregoing neither we the auctioneer nor our 

employees or agents nor the seller accept 

liability for the correctness of such opinions 

and all conditions and warranties, whether 

relating to description, condition or quality of 

lots, express, implied or statutory, are hereby 

excluded. This Condition is subject to the next 

following Condition concerning deliberate 

forgeries and applies save as provided for in 

paragraph 6 “information to buyers”. 

(2) Private treaty sales made under these 

Conditions are deemed to be sales by auction 

for purposes of consumer legislation. 

15. FORGERIES 

Notwithstanding the preceding Condition, any 

Lot which proves to be a deliberate forgery 

(as defined) may be returned to us by you 

within 21 days of the auction provided it is in 

the same condition as when bought, and is 

accompanied by particulars identifying it from 

the relevant catalogue description and a 

written statement of defects. If we are 

satisfied from the evidence presented that the 

Lot is a deliberate forgery we shall refund the 

money paid by you for the Lot including any 

buyer’s premium provided that (1) if the 

catalogue description reflected the accepted 

view of scholars and experts as at the date of 

sale or (2) you personally are not able to 

transfer a good and marketable title to us, 

you shall have no rights under this condition. 

The right of return provided by this Condition 

is additional to any right or remedy provided 

by law or by these Conditions of Sale. 

GENERAL 

16. We shall have the right at our discretion, 

to refuse admission to our premises or 

attendance at our auctions by any person. 

17. (1) Any right to compensation for losses 

liabilities and expenses incurred in respect of 

and as a result of any breach of these 

Conditions and any exclusions provided by 

them shall be available to the seller and/or 

the auctioneer as appropriate. 

(2). Such rights and exclusions shall extend to 

and be deemed to be for the benefit of 

employees and agents of the seller and/or 

the auctioneer who may themselves enforce 

them. 

18. Any notice to any buyer, seller, bidder or 

viewer may be given by first class mail, email 

or Swiftmail in which case it shall be deemed 

to have been received by the addressee 48 

hours after posting. 

19. Special terms may be used in catalogue 

descriptions of particular classes of items in 

which case the descriptions must be 

interpreted in accordance with any glossary 

appearing at the commencement of the 

catalogue. 

20. Any indulgence extended to bidders 

buyers or sellers by us notwithstanding the 

strict terms of these Conditions or of the 

Terms of Consignment shall affect the 

position at the relevant time only and in 

respect of that particular concession only; in 

all other respects these Conditions shall be 

construed as having full force and effect. 

21. English law applies to the interpretation of 

these Conditions.
