hours prior to the auction and that occasionally, the number

An Absentee Bid should be set at the maximum amount 

you wish to bid on the lot/s you are interested in purchasing.

Selected works from 

the Collection of the Late 

Dr George and Mrs Ann Geroe 

Ann Geroe (1934-2015) was born in Wales and migrated to 

Melbourne with her mother after World War II. In the early 1970s, 

while doing a double major in philosophy at Melbourne University 

as a mature age student, she attended pottery classes run 

by Barry Singleton. Already interested in Chinese ceramics, 

particularly the pots of the Southern Song Dynasty, the Kang 

Hsi reign of the Ching Dynasty and the Ching monochrome 

reproductions of the 19th century, she set out to recreate 

their celadon, copper red and imperial yellow glazes on simple 

monochrome forms. She started practicing professionally as a 

potter in 1979, working from a home studio in Castlemaine. Some 

of her work is carved or pierced and she also made stoneware 

tableware for a time. In 1987, she travelled overseas, holding 

a one-person show at the Matsuzakaya Department Store, 

Yokohama, and going on to visit ceramic collections in Beijing, 

Taipei, Shanghai, London and Oxford. She continued to work into 

the 2000s but gave up potting in around 2004 after a fall in her 

studio. In 2014, a survey exhibition of her work was held at the 

Castlemaine Art Gallery to coincide with her 80th birthday. Her 

work is held in the collection of the National Gallery of Victoria.

A sterling silver 'Duty Dodger' 

octagonal bullet teapot by Thomas 

Farren, London, 1728 

13cm high, 


NOTE 

the term 'Duty Dodger' refers to a silver 

item with transposed silver marks. The 

marks are soldered on from a smaller 

taxed object so that the silversmith 

could avoid paying the full amount 

of tax to the Hall. This is indicated 

by the lack of a makers mark to the 

base of the teapot, and a set of marks 

punched too close to the hinge of the 

lid, suggesting they were punched 

before the hinge was attached, 

rather than after by the assay office. 

Duty dodgers are in violation of the 

Hallmarking Act of 1973, and therefore 

cannot be sold in the UK without the 

marks being crossed out.
