The Best of Florence Court

Auction date: 27th July—29th July 2009
Location: Auckland

A very important upcoming auction
to be held at Dunbar Sloane Auckland, Monday-Wednesday, 27th, 28th, 29th July 2009 at 6pm.

In July 1991 Webbs sold the contents of Florence Court, Epsom, Auckland. However, before the auction the family decided that some of the most important pieces from the prestigious collection should be retained by the family. These items were not seen by the public. Mrs Diana Seabrook and the Robinson family took the cream of the chattels, the sterling silver, Queen Anne & Georgian furniture, European paintings, Asian ceramics, European porcelain and Persian rugs and have had them in their large home in Christchurch ever since. They are now moving into a small retirement villa and have instructed Dunbar Sloane Auckland to auction off their surplus antiques. The auction will also include items of an Auckland gentleman and others.

Superb colour catalogues are in the making and will be available for $20 each. Please send a cheque to PO Box 68 527, Newton 1145, Auckland if you would like one sent to you.

Day 1: Florence Court Furniture, Silver & Jewellery.
Day 2: Collectables
Day 3: Maori & Pacific artefacts & NZ Historical.
