Reeman Dansie is pleased to present the catalogue for the August Fine Art & Antiques sale, with almost 1200 lots to be sold over the course of two days, to include a Sporting section.

The sale begins with ceramics and glassware, with the usual range of English, continental and Asian pieces on offer; highlights include a wonderful 18th century Tournai dinner service, comprising 160 pieces (lot 150, £2500-4000).

Silver will follow, to include various lots of flatware and tea wares; other notable lots include a rare mid eighteenth century Irish provincial silver soup ladle (lot 200, £2500-3000).

A choice selection of jewellery, watches, and clocks will be sold next; two pieces that have caught our eye include a fine Art Deco diamond cocktail ring (lot 424, £2500-3000), and a Second World War Omega ‘dirty dozen’ wristwatch (lot 523, £1000-1500).

The day will conclude with works of art, with a number of eye-catching lots to be found, not least a bronze bust of a Roman emperor, purportedly dug up in a Colchester field (lot 711, £400-600).

Day two of the sale will start with the Sporting section, including a good selection of taxidermy, pictures, sculptures, books, and hunting-related items. A fine collection of antique tiger and leopard skins will be on offer, related by direct family descent from the legendary huntsman - and friend of Jim Corbett - Sir Archie William (Ibby) Ibbotson. Find out more using the button below. 

A good selection of 200 pictures will follow, with everything from Old Masters to contemporary works on offer; one particular lot we anticipate a wave of interest for is a woodblock print of Hawaiian surfers by Charles William Bartlett (1860-1940) (lot 1100, £5000-7000).

The sale will conclude with furniture and rugs; once again a wide selection of pieces can be found to suit all tastes, from 17th century oak to Eames-style chairs.

We look forward to welcoming you to the sale, whether you’ll be bidding online or in the room.
