A+O's object sales are always keenly anticipated and none more so that this extraordinary collection assembled over decades. The heart of the catalogue is a most unusual and fascinating collection of ceramics of the period 1880 to 1920 with the emphasis on rare European and American ceramics - Martin Bros, Emile Galle, Della Robbia, George Orr and Maw & Co are amongst the names seldom seen on these shores. A limited but high quality selection of NZ studio pottery and decorative arts will compliment this rare collection inc. a pair of Crown Lynn Wharetana bookends in brown.
