Furniture prices looking good Fifteen lots make five-figure sums as Berkshire bidders show encouraging confidence

by Terence Ryle 1 2 Newbury auction house Dreweatts (25% buyer’s premium) held a strong furniture sale on March 30-31. Without relying on a couple of huge spends, no fewer than 15 pieces of English cabinetmaking and seating furniture took five-figure bids over the two days when 86% of the 620 lots sold to a hammer total of more than £1.65m. It was more evidence that, at least in some areas, the market is moving back from the precipice it had reached a few years ago. By chance, a number of vendors had consigned a number of Georgian Gothic Revival items. Dated c.1760 was a mahogany side chair provenanced to a Berkshire house built in 1763 in the Strawberry Hill taste. It is similar to the chair in the V&A designed by Richard Bentley and made by William Hallett for Walpole’s ‘Gothick’ villa at Twickenham. An almost identical chair took a 4 premium-inclusive £5625 Christie’s in November 2015. The one at Dreweatts was pitched at £3000- 5000 and went to a private bidder online at £10,000. 3 The catalogue cover lot, a 5ft (1.54m) tall carved giltwood mirror and pair of matching girandoles, was of less certain date. Although catalogued as late 18th or 19th century there was an addendum that ‘this lot could date to as late as the third quarter of the 19th century’ and Highlights from Dreweatts’ March 30-31 auction. that ‘it is possible that the girandoles are associated to the mirror’. 1.

Seago: adopted by the royal family Painter was a favourite of the establishment but has a wider appeal such as Hong Kong works

by Alex Capon

In something of a footnote to all the reams of recent coverage of the death of Prince Philip, you may have read about his close friendship with the artist Edward Seago (1910-74). The two men knew each other for a long time and, as well as sharing many connections and interests, seem to have developed a strong mutual admiration. In 1956-7, Seago was invited to accompany the Duke of Edinburgh on a tour of the Antarctic and tutored him as they painted together on the deck of the Royal Yacht Britannia (he would later also teach Prince Charles). Among the pictures they made, both men produced portraits 1 2 of the other (showing their subjects Swire had collected Seago’s work Nautical but nice at work painting).
