Viewing
Catalogues
Online catalogues can be viewed via our website
approximately two weeks prior to the auction date.
Complimentary printed catalogues are available on site at
Gibson’s rooms.
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.
The reserve will never exceed the low estimate at Gibson’s.
Some lots may be sold without reserve.
Talk to our Specialists
Gibson’s is an experienced team of specialists who are
available to discuss items in further detail, and to offer
advice and assistance.
Contact details for relevant specialists can be found on the
inside front cover our auction catalogues and on our website.

Reports supplement the lot description and provide
information on the condition of an item.

unable to view an item in person prior to the auction.
To request a condition report please email
condition.reports@gibsonsauctions.com.au with the auction

Arts and Crafts Silversmithing
Lots 13–24
The latter part of the 19th century in Britain saw a moral and aesthetic
shift away from the Victorian era of mass manufacture, its excesses and
the perceived decline in the quality and value of goods. This stirring was
championed by members of The Arts and Crafts movement who aimed
to elevate the artist-craftsman in the production process, inspired
by John Ruskin’s writings and his view that ‘Fine Arts is that in which
the hand, the head, and the heart of man go together’. Silversmithing
saw the rise of the guild movement, influenced in part by Medieval
practices, and practitioners eagerly sought designs from the past,
re-imagining Gothic, Celtic, Medieval and Tudor motifs in their output.
The language and decorative schemes of nature were also employed
to great artistic effect, sinuous and flowing, but with a quiet restraint in
contrast to the flamboyance of Art Nouveau. Commerciality, however,
was not eschewed entirely. The famed and innovative store, Liberty &
Co., added metalwork in pewter and silver to its offerings, introducing
its own production lines in the Arts and Crafts style, Cymric and its
more affordable range, Tudric. Women too rose to greater prominence
as silver makers, moving away from traditional feminine crafts such as
needlework and weaving, working not only as designers but as makers
in what traditionally had been male dominated areas of practice.

An impressive Arts and Crafts
sterling silver centrepiece,
Florence Harriet Steele, for
David & Maurice Davis, mark of
D&MD, Birmingham 1908
heavy gauge with four cast medallions
of allegorical figures between entrelac
borders in relief, and bands of script,
'gather ye rosebuds while ye may – old
time is still a flying', from a 17th century
poem by Robert Herrick; with a later
green glass liner, hallmarked to foot,
inscription to foot rim underside from
Andrew Hickman (industrialist and
MP) to his first great grandson, Alfred
Charles Simonds, February 2 1910
1370gms silver weight
15cm high, 19cm diameter
(excluding glass)
NOTE
David & Maurice Davis described
themselves as 'artistic jewellers'
and probably acquired the
centrepiece from the silversmith
for re-sale, stamping the item with
their own mark.
The artist, Florence Harriet Steele was
a highly regarded sculptress, medallist
and metalworker with metalworking
becoming her preferred medium, and
this particular design was exhibited at
the New Gallery Summer Exhibition
in 1908 (Royal Academy London) and
published in the Academy's magazine
'The Studio', Volume 44, issue 183
page 56 in 'The Crafts Section at the
New Gallery'.
An exhibition review of Florence's
exhibits described her work thus:
'Perhaps the most graceful figure
work is that of Miss Florence Steele
on vases, cups and caskets, showing
strength, knowledge, and a definite
tenderness of feeling. The way in
which the given spaces are filled show
her to be a designer of skill'.

NOTE
Betty Joel (1894-1985) was a furniture
and interior designer working through
the Interwar era. She commenced
her business in 1921 on Hayling Island,
Hampshire. She signed her works
and also included the signature of her
sole craftsman, G.E. Ashley, believing
he was equal in their partnership and
growing success. They expanded their
business into Token works, working
out of Portsmouth, and employing

2. Gibson’s Auctioneers
& Valuers as Agent
Except as otherwise stated Gibson's acts as agent
for the Seller.
The contract for the Sale of the property is therefore
made between the Seller and the Buyer.
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 its 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 to in the catalogue by requesting a
condition report.
4. At the Sale
A) REFUSAL OF ADMISSION
Gibson's reserves the right at our complete
discretion to refuse admission to the Auction
premises or participation in any Auction and to
reject any Bid.
B) REGISTRATION BEFORE BIDDING
Any new Prospective Buyer must complete and
sign a registration form and provide photographic
identification before Bidding. Gibson's may
request bank, trade or other financial references to
substantiate this registration.
C) BIDDING AS A PRINCIPAL
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.
D) INTERNATIONAL REGISTRATIONS
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. 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 contact be unsuccessful at the time of
Auction. You must advise Gibson's of the Lots in
question and recommend a ‘Cover Bid’ amount
should there be any issues with technology or
communication via the telephone number provided.
Gibson's will advise Telephone Bidders who have
registered at least 24 hours before the Auction of
any relevant changes to descriptions, withdrawals or
any other Sale room notices.
G) ONLINE BIDDING
Gibson's accepts no responsibility for any
errors, failure to execute Bids or any other
miscommunications regarding this process. It is the
online Bidder’s responsibility to ensure the accuracy
of the relevant information regarding Bids, Lot
numbers and contact details.
177
H) RESERVES
Unless otherwise indicated, all Lots are offered
subject to a Reserve, which is the confidential
minimum price below which the Lot will not be
sold. The Reserve will not exceed the low estimate
printed 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.
I) AUCTIONEER'S DISCRETION
The Auctioneer has the right at his absolute and
sole discretion to refuse any Bid, to advance the
Bidding in such a manner as he may decide, to
withdraw or divide any Lot, to combine any two or
more Lots and, in the case or error or dispute and
whether during or after the Sale, to determine the
successful Bidder, to continue the Bidding, to cancel
the Sale or to re-offer and resell the item in dispute.
In the event of a dispute, or the Auctioneer or the
Company is of the opinion that there has been a
misunderstanding or mistake regarding a Sale or a
Lot the subject of a Sale, the Auctioneer may rescind
the Sale and put any Lot up for a Second Auction. If
a Sale is rescinded, the Company may put the Lot up
at a second Auction, offer the Lot for sale by private
treaty or withdraw the Lot from sale entirely.
J) SUCCESSFUL BID AND PASSING OF RISK
Subject to the Auctioneer’s discretion, on the
acceptance of a Bid by the fall of the Auctioneer's
hammer, a contract of sale is made between the
Seller and the Buyer. Risk and responsibility for the
Lot (including frames or glass where relevant) passes
immediately to the Buyer. Gibson's shall not be liable
for any breach of contract by either the Seller or
the Buyer.
K) INDICATIVE BIDDING STEPS, ETC.
Gibson's reserves the right to refuse any Bid,
withdraw any Lot from Sale, to place a Reserve on
any Lot and to advance the Bidding according to
the following:
Increment Amount
Dollar Range
$20 $0–$500
$50 $500–$1,000

At the fall of the hammer, insurance is the
responsibility of the purchaser.

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

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

any other rights or remedies available under the law)

rate as published weekly in the Australian
Financial Review;

total amount due and to commence legal
proceedings for its recovery along with interest,

such terms as the Company sees fit;

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;

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 the Company;
x) to take such other action as the Company
deems necessary or appropriate, including
charging the payment via the registered credit
card and retaining any deposits.
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, the Company 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.

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
the Company, nor any of the Company’s 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, the Company, its officers, agents
178
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.
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 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

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 §. 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
Vendor Commission plus any applicable GST and
government charges.
15. Jewels, Watches & Gold
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.
GOLD
Gold is sold in good faith that its purity is as
marked or hallmarked on the object. Should an
item have a gold content of 10% less than the
catalogued amount, Gibson’s will refund as per our
Terms and Conditions.
