Online catalogues can be viewed at 

www.gibsonsauctions.com.au approximately three weeks 

prior to the auction date. 

Complimentary printed catalogues are available at Gibson’s

Viewing 

Auction viewings are open to the public and usually take place

Lot Descriptions 

Lot Descriptions provide basic catalogue information such 

as dimensions, date or age, medium, attribution, provenance 

and quantity. 

All lots are guaranteed for fourteen (14) days from the 

auction date. 

Estimates 

Estimates are printed in the catalogue beside every lot and 

take into account rarity, condition, quality and provenance. 

The reserve is the amount at which the item is available for 

purchase. The reserve is an undisclosed confidential amount 

which is set at, or below the low estimate.

as a driver’s licence or passport with you. 

2. Telephone Bidding 

Gibson’s Auctioneers & Valuers offer telephone bidding on all 

lots, at all auctions. 

Telephone Bidding is a convenient solution if you are unable to 

attend an auction in person. A Gibson’s Auctioneers & Valuers 

staff member will call you approximately 5 lots in advance and 

with your instruction, bid on your behalf at the auction. 

Please note: Telephone Bids must be organised at least 24 

hours prior to the auction and that occasionally, the number 

of telephone bidders available may be restricted when the 

auction is offsite. 

To organise a Telephone Bid please follow the link

your Telephone Bid, along with clear Photo ID verifying

3. Absentee Bids 

Absentee Bidding is another convenient solution if you 

are unable to attend an auction in person, to speak on the 

telephone or if you simply have a strict budget. 

An Absentee Bid should be set at the maximum amount 

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

Should the lot/s be knocked down at an amount lower than 

the bid recorded on your form, the lot will be sold to you for 

the lesser hammer price. 

Please note Absentee Bids must be received at least 24 hours 

prior to the auction to allow time for processing.

‘Auctions’ tab.

3. Before the Sale 

A) EXAMINATION OF PROPERTY 

Prospective Buyers are strongly advised to examine 

in person any property in which they are interested 

before the Auction takes place. Neither Gibson's 

nor the Seller provides any guarantee in relation to 

the nature of the property apart from the Limited 

Warranty in the paragraph below. 

The property is otherwise sold “as is”. 

B) CATALOGUE AND OTHER DESCRIPTIONS 

All statements by Gibson's in the catalogue entry for 

the property or in the condition report, or made orally 

or in writing elsewhere, are statements of opinion 

and are not to be relied upon as statements of fact. 

Such statements do not constitute a representation, 

warranty or assumption of liability by Gibson's of 

any kind. References in the catalogue entry to the 

condition report, including damage or restoration 

are for guidance only and should be evaluated by 

personal inspection by the Bidder or a knowledgeable 

representative. The absence of such a reference 

does not imply that an item is free from defects or 

restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects 

imply the absence of any others. Estimates of the 

selling price should not be relied on as a statement 

that this is the price at which the item will sell or it’s 

value for any other purpose. Neither Gibson's nor the 

Seller is responsible for any errors or omissions in the 

catalogue or any supplemental material. 

Images are measured height by width. Illustrations 

are provided only as a guide and should not be relied 

upon as a true representation of colour or condition. 

Images are not shown at a standard scale. Mention 

is rarely made of frames (which may be provided as 

supplementary images on the website) which do 

not form part of the Lot as described in the printed 

catalogue. 

All transactions are in Australian Dollars so there 

may be a small exchange rate risk, for international 

Buyers. The costs associated with acquiring a goods 

certificate will be borne by the Buyer. If the item 

turns out to be a Forgery or otherwise incorrectly 

described, all reasonable costs will be borne by the 

Seller. 

C) BUYER'S RESPONSIBILITY 

All property is sold “as is” without representation or 

warranty of any kind by Gibson's or the Seller. Buyers 

are responsible for satisfying themselves concerning 

the condition of the property and the matters referred

substantiate this registration.

When making a Bid, a Bidder is accepting personal 

liability to pay the purchase price including the 

Buyer's Premium and all applicable taxes, plus 

all other applicable charges, unless it has been 

explicitly agreed in writing with Gibson's before 

the commencement of the Sale that the Bidder is 

acting as agent on behalf of an identified third party 

acceptable to Gibson's and that Gibson's will only 

look to the principal for payment.

All international clients not known to Gibson's will 

be required to scan or fax through an accredited 

form of photo identification and pay a deposit at our 

discretion in cleared funds into Gibson's account 

at least 48 hours before the commencement of 

the Auction. Bids will not be accepted without 

this deposit. Gibson's also reserves the right to 

request any additional forms of identification prior to 

registering an overseas Bid. 

This deposit can be made using a credit card, 

however the balance of any purchase price in excess 

of $5,000 can not be charged to this card without 

prior arrangement. This deposit is redeemable 

against any Auction purchase. 

E) ABSENTEE BIDS 

Gibson's will use reasonable efforts to execute written 

Bids delivered to us at least 24 hours prior to the 

Sale for the convenience of those clients who are 

unable to attend the Auction in person. If Gibson's 

receives identical written Bids on a particular Lot, and 

at the Auction these are the highest Bids on that Lot, 

then the Lot will be sold to the person whose written 

Bid was received and accepted first. Execution of 

written Bids is a free service undertaken subject to 

other commitments at the time of the Sale and we 

do not accept liability for failing to execute a written 

Bid or for errors or omissions which may arise. It is 

the Bidder’s responsibility to check with Gibson's 

after the Auction if they were successful. Unlimited 

or “Buy” Bids will not be accepted. Please refer to our 

indicative Bidding increments below for appropriate 

absentee Bid amounts (Section K). 

F) TELEPHONE BIDS 

Priority will be given to overseas and interstate 

Bidders. Arrangements for this service must be 

confirmed at least 24 hours prior to the Auction 

commencing. Gibson's accepts no responsibility 

whatsoever for any errors or failure to execute Bids. 

In telephone Bidding the Buyer agrees to be bound 

by all terms and conditions listed here and accepts 

that Gibson's cannot be held responsible for any 

miscommunications in the process. The success 

of telephone Bidding cannot be guaranteed due to 

circumstances that are unforeseen. Buyers should 

be aware of the risk and accept the consequences

should there be any issues with technology or

relevant changes to descriptions, withdrawals or any 

other Sale room notices.

in the catalogue. The Auctioneer may open the 

Bidding on any Lot below the Reserve by placing 

a Bid on behalf of the Seller. The Auctioneer may 

continue to Bid on behalf of Seller up to the amount 

of the Reserve, either by placing consecutive Bids or 

by placing Bids in response to other Bidders.

hammer, a contract of sale is made between the 

Seller and the Buyer. Risk and responsibility for the

5. After the Sale 

A) BUYER'S PREMIUM 

In addition to the Hammer Price, the Buyer agrees 

to pay to Gibson's the Buyer's Premium. The Buyer's 

Premium is 22% of the Hammer Price plus GST. 

(Goods and Services Tax) where applicable. 

B) ONLINE SURCHARGE 

In the case where the Buyer purchases via online 

Bidding platforms, the Buyer agrees to pay the online 

Bidding surcharge of 2% (Gibsons.com.au) or 5%

C) PAYMENT AND PASSING OF TITLE 

The Buyer must pay the full amount due (comprising 

the Hammer Price, Buyer's Premium and any 

applicable taxes and GST) not later than three (3) 

days after the Auction date. 

The Buyer will not acquire title for the Lot until 

Gibson's receives full payment in cleared funds, and 

no goods under any circumstances will be released 

without confirmation of cleared funds received. 

This applies even if the Buyer wishes to send items 

interstate or overseas. 

Payment can be made by the following means: 

• Bank Transfer/Direct Deposit is our preferred 

method of payment 

Account Name: Gibson's Auctions

Bank of Melbourne 

(A division of St George) 

BSB: 193879 

Account No: 441701443 

Swift Code: SGBLAU2S 

Routing Code: 021000021 

Bank Address: 197-201 Glenferrie Road,

The Buyer is responsible for any bank fees and 

charges applicable for the transfer of funds into

deposited directly into our account at a Bank of 

Melbourne/St George branch 

D) COLLECTION OF PURCHASES & INSURANCE 

Gibson's is entitled to retain items sold until all 

amounts due to us have been received in full in good 

cleared funds. Subject to this, the Buyer shall collect 

purchased Lots within three (3) days from the date of 

the Sale unless otherwise agreed in writing between 

Gibson's and the Buyer. 

At the fall of the hammer, insurance is the 

responsibility of the purchaser. 

E) PACKING, HANDLING AND SHIPPING 

At the request of the Buyer, Gibson's may assist with 

packing of goods but takes no responsibility for loss, 

damage or breakage that may occur. 

Gibson's at the request of the Buyer may arrange 

for a carrier, packer or shipper to have the property 

packed, insured and shipped at the Buyer’s 

expense. All packing, shipping, insurance, postage & 

associated charges will be borne by the purchaser. 

Gibson's can assist with removal companies that the 

Buyer can use but takes no responsibility whatsoever 

for the actions of any recommended third party. 

F) CULTURAL HERITAGE EXPORT LICENCES 

Unless otherwise agreed by Gibson's in writing, the 

fact that the Buyer wishes to apply for an export 

licence does not affect their obligation to make full 

payment immediately, nor Gibson's right to charge 

interest or storage charges on late payment. It is 

the responsibility of the Buyer to check Australia’s 

Protection of Moveable Cultural Heritage Act 1986 

prior to purchase. Export/import licences applications 

are the responsibility of the Buyer and/or the Buyer's 

nominated shipper. Gibson's shall not be obliged to 

rescind a Sale nor to refund any expenses incurred by 

the Buyer in circumstances where an export licence 

is not granted. 

G) REMEDIES FOR NON-PAYMENT 

If the Buyer fails to make full payment immediately, 

Gibson's is entitled to exercise one or more of the 

following rights or remedies (in addition to asserting 

any other rights or remedies available under the law) 

i) to charge interest at the ANZ visa credit card 

rate as published weekly in the Australian 

Financial Review; 

ii) 

iii) 

iv) 

to hold the defaulting Buyer liable for the 

total amount due and to commence legal 

proceedings for it’s recovery along with interest, 

legal fees and costs to the fullest extent 

permitted under applicable law; 

to cancel the Sale; 

to resell the property publicly or privately on 

such terms as we see fit; 

v) to pay the Seller an amount up to the net 

proceeds payable in respect of the amount Bid 

by the defaulting Buyer. In these circumstances 

the defaulting Buyer can have no claim upon 

Gibson's in the event that the Lot(s) are sold for 

an amount greater than the original invoiced 

amount; 

vi) 

to offset against any amounts which Gibson's 

may owe the Buyer across any other 

transactions; 

viii) to reject at any future Auction any Bids made by 

or on behalf of the Buyer or to obtain a deposit 

from the Buyer prior to accepting any Bids; 

ix) 

to exercise all the rights and remedies of a 

person holding security over any property in 

our possession owned by the Buyer whether by 

way of pledge, security interest or in any other 

way, to the fullest extent permitted by the law of 

the place where such property is located. The 

Buyer will be deemed to have been granted such 

security to us and we may retain such property 

as collateral security for such Buyer’s obligations 

to us; 

x) to take such other action as Gibson's deem 

necessary or appropriate. 

H) FAILURE TO COLLECT PURCHASES 

Where purchases are not collected within three (3) 

days from the Sale date, whether or not payment has 

been made, Gibson's shall be permitted to: 

i) remove, store and further insure the Lot at the 

expense of the Buyer, releasing only after full 

payment has been received from the Buyer for 

incurred costs; 

ii) 

iii) 

re-sell the Lot without Reserve by Auction, 

private treaty or any other means whereby the 

Buyer agrees not to challenge the resale price 

achieved 

rescind the Sale of that Lot or any other Lot sold 

by the Seller to the Buyer at the same or any 

other Auction 

If Gibson's do re-sell the property under clauses H 

and G, the defaulting Buyer agrees to be liable for 

all payments of any deficiency between the total 

amount originally due and the price obtained, as well 

as the legal as all costs, expenses, damages, legal 

fees, commissions and premiums of whatever kinds 

associated with both Sales or otherwise arising from 

the default. 

6. Extent of Gibson's Liability 

Gibson's agrees to refund the purchase price in 

the circumstances of the Limited Warranty set out 

in paragraph 7. Apart from that, neither the Seller 

nor we, nor any of our employees or agents are 

responsible for the correctness of any statement of 

whatever kind concerning any Lot, whether written 

or oral, nor for any other errors or omissions in 

description or for any faults or defects in any Lots. 

Except as stated in paragraph 7 below, neither the 

Seller ourselves, our officers, agents or employees 

give any representation warranty or guarantee or 

assume any liability of any kind in respect of any 

Lot with regard to merchantability, fitness for a 

particular purpose, description, size, quality, condition, 

attribution, authenticity, rarity, importance, medium, 

provenance, exhibition history, literature or historical 

relevance. Except as required by local law any 

warranty of any kind is excluded by this paragraph.

206 

7. Limited Warranty 

Subject to the terms and conditions of this 

paragraph, the warrants for the period of fourteen 

(14) days from the date of the Sale that any property 

described in this catalogue (noting such description 

may be amended by any Saleroom notice or 

announcement) which is stated without qualification 

to be the work of a named author or authorship is 

authentic and not a forgery. The term “Author” or 

“authorship” refers to the creator of the property or 

to the period, culture, source, or origin as the case 

may be, with which the creation of such property is 

identified in the catalogue. 

The warranty is subject to the following: 

i) it does not apply where a) the catalogue 

description or Saleroom notice corresponded 

to the generally accepted opinion of scholars 

and experts at the date of the Sale or fairly 

indicated that there was a conflict of opinions, 

or b) correct identification of a Lot can be 

demonstrated only by means of a scientific 

process not generally accepted for use until 

after publication of the catalogue or a process 

which at the date of the publication of the 

catalogue was unreasonably expensive or 

impractical or likely to have caused damage to 

the property. 

ii) 

iii) 

iv) 

the benefits of the warranty are not assignable 

and shall apply only to the original Buyer of the 

Lot as shown on the invoice originally issued by 

Gibson's when the Lot was sold at Auction. 

the original Buyer must have remained the owner 

of the Lot without disposing of any interest in it 

to any third party 

The Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy against 

the Seller in place of any other remedy which 

might be available, is the cancellation of the 

Sale and the refund of the original purchase 

price paid for the Lot less the Buyer's Premium 

which is non refundable. Neither the Seller nor 

Gibson's will be liable for any special, incidental 

nor consequential damages including, without 

limitation, loss of profits not for interest. 

v) The Buyer must give written notice of claim 

to us within fourteen (14) days of the date of 

the Auction. The Seller shall have the right, to 

require the Buyer to obtain two written opinions 

by recognised experts in the field, mutually 

acceptable to the Buyer and Gibson's to 

decide whether or not to cancel the Sale under 

warranty. 

vi) 

the Buyer must return the Lot to Seller in the 

same condition that it was purchased. 

8. Severability 

If any part of these Conditions of Sale is found by any 

court to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that part 

shall be discounted and the rest of the Conditions 

shall continue to be valid to the fullest extent 

permitted by law. 

9. Copyright 

The copyright of all images, illustrations and written 

material produced by Gibson's relating to a Lot 

including the contents of this catalogue, is and shall 

remain the property at all times of Gibson's and 

shall not be used by the Buyer, nor by anyone else 

without our prior written consent. Gibson's and the 

Seller make no representation or warranty that the 

Buyer of a property will acquire any copyright or other 

reproduction rights in it. 

10. Law and Jurisdiction 

These terms and conditions and any matters 

concerned with the foregoing fall within the exclusive 

jurisdiction of the courts of the state in which the 

Auction is held. 

11. Pre-Sale Estimates 

Gibson's publishes with each catalogue our opinion 

as to the estimated price range for each Lot. These 

estimates are approximate prices only and are not 

intended to be definitive. They are prepared well in 

advance of the Sale and may be subject to revision. 

Interested parties should contact Gibson's prior to 

Auction for updated pre-Sale estimates and starting 

prices. 

12. Sale results 

After the Sale, Gibson's may publish (both verbally 

and in writing) the results of Sale at our discretion, 

including the prices achieved for specific Lots. 

Unless otherwise discussed with the Buyer, details of 

individual Buyers will remain confidential. 

13. Goods and Service Tax 

In accordance with A New Tax System (Goods and 

Services Tax) Act 1999, Gibson's Auctions will collect 

on behalf of the Australian Tax Office (ATO) a Goods 

and Service Tax (GST) of 10% on all applicable 

transactions. 

GST is applicable on the Hammer Price in the case 

where the Seller is selling property that is owned by 

an entity registered for GST. GST is also applicable 

on the Hammer Price in the case where the Seller is 

not an Australian resident. These Lots are denoted 

by a dagger symbol † placed next to the estimate. 

GST is also applicable on the Buyer's Premium. 

Overseas Buyers and non-resident Buyers in Australia 

will not be charged GST on both Hammer Price and 

Premiums under the following conditions: 

1. The items are exported through a Gibson's 

approved freight company including Australia 

Post 

2. The items are exported within 60 days of the 

date of the Sale 

The invoice supplied by Gibson's for purchases will be 

regarded as a Tax invoice for GST purposes. 

14. Resale Royalty Scheme 

Under the legal obligations of the Resale Royalty 

Scheme for Visual Artists Act 2009, Sellers must 

provide the following information to comply with 

the act: 

• was the artwork acquired after 8 June 2010? 

• is the Sale/Reserve price (including GST) $1,000 

or more? 

• is the artist from Australia or a country listed in 

the Regulations to the Act? 

• is the artist alive, or deceased less than 70 

years? 

The Seller: 

i) acknowledges that he or she understands his or 

her legal obligations under the Resale Royalty for 

Visual Artists Act 2009 (the Act); 

ii) 

iii) 

iv) 

undertakes to comply with all requirements of 

the Act, including by providing its agent, the 

company, with accurate information sufficient for 

compliance with sections 28 and 29 of the Act; 

undertakes to indemnify the company for any 

loss incurred by the company as a result of 

the vendor’s failure to comply with any of the 

vendor’s legal obligations under the Act; and 

acknowledges that if he or she fails to comply 

with any of his or her legal obligations under 

the Act, the company may provide the vendor’s 

name and contact details to Copyright Agency 

Limited (CAL). 

Lots subject to payment of the Resale Royalty 

Scheme will be denoted by the symbol §. The 

Australian Resale Royalty is a flat rate of 5% on the 

Hammer Price (including GST). The Australian Resale 

Royalty is payable by the Seller in addition to the 

Buyer's Premium plus any applicable GST. 

15. Jewels & Watches 

GEMSTONES 

Gemstones have historically been subjected to a 

variety of treatments to enhance their appearance. 

Sapphire and rubies are routinely heat treated to 

improve their colour and clarity, similarly emeralds 

are frequently treated with oils or resin for the same 

purpose. Other treatments such as staining or dyeing, 

irradiation, filling or coating may have been used 

on other precious and semi-precious gemstones 

and organic material. These treatments may be 

permanent, whilst others may need special care to 

reserve their appearance. Buyers should assume that 

each Lot has been subject to some form of treatment 

and that the estimates reflect this. 

A number of laboratories issue certificates that give 

detailed descriptions of gemstones, and in the event 

that Gibson's has been supplied with or obtained 

certificates for any Lot, this shall be noted in the 

catalogue. However, as there may not be consensus 

between different laboratories on the degree, or 

types of treatment of the gemstones, Gibson's 

supplies these without warranty. 

Buyers should assume that all gemstones sold 

by Gibson's may have been subjected to such 

treatments, and that the catalogue estimates reflect 

this. 

PEARLS 

Pearls, like gemstones, are also subject to various 

treatments. Buyers should assume that any pearls 

sold by Gibson's may have been subjected to such 

treatments, and that the catalogue estimates reflect 

this. 

WATCHES 

Please note: All watches sold by Gibson's are sold on 

an “as is” basis. Gibson's makes no representation 

or warranty that any watch is in working order. Many 

watches have been repaired over their lifetime and 

may contain non-original parts. The absence of any 

reference to the condition of a watch does not imply 

that the Lot is in good condition and without defects, 

repairs or restorations. Buyers should be aware that 

a general service, change of battery or further repair 

work, for which the Buyer is solely responsible for, 

may be necessary. 

ESTIMATED WEIGHTS 

If a stone has a known weight, it has been weighed 

out of the mount. If a stone has an estimated weight, 

it is an approximate weight only and has been 

measured by us in the mount and is a statement of 

opinion only. The information is given as a guide only 

and Buyers should satisfy themselves with regard to 

this information as to its accuracy.
