This week, we’re featuring the Three Day Fine Art and Antique Auction, including the Lady Elizabeth Hart Collection and The Wallace Collection of Oriental Art. The sale will take place at Bamfords Auctioneers & Valuers‘ head office, their auction house in Derby, which lies 10 minutes off the M1 on the Nottingham side of the city. The sale dates & times will be as follows:
- 5th May 2022 from 10am
- 6th May 2022 from 10am
- 9th May 2022 from 10am
There’ll be a massive 1,724 lots going under the hammer across the three days. After trawling and trawling through the lots, we stumbled across some unexpected items. Tucked away within the more ‘fancy’ antiques – after the silver and jewellery and before the large collection of European and Far Eastern art we found the following few mid 20th century gems. We can’t believe the low estimate on the Midwinter Riviera set!
