Trevanion & Dean‘s September Fine Art & Antique auction takes place on Wednesday 14th September 2022 from 9am. A total of 761 lots are up for sale, we’ve picked out a dozen below that we like and thought you would too.
There’s a good mix of vintage & antique jewellery, fine art, furniture and other quality collectables. If you’re a James Bond fan, there are a number of 1st edition, hardback books by Ian Fleming. Lots of pretty jewellery – of course, I had to include a little Art Deco something here. I’ve been on the look out for vintage ceramic storage jars; in particular – raisins, currants and sultanas. I can never find a matching trio… but these for sale here are in T G Green’s blue – not a colourway I want. My search continues!
Bid via the Trevanion website where you’ll be charged a buyer’s commission charge of 20% + VAT plus an additional 2% + VAT. Alternatively, you can bid via The Saleroom or EasyLiveAuction. Please check each website for their added bidding fees.
