1Black Painted Queen Anne Heart and Crown Arm Chair

Stratford area, Connecticut, 1765-1775

H. 47 ½ in.

Literature: A nearly identical example is in the Silas

Deane House, Wethersfi eld, Connecticut. Please see

Robert F. Trent, Heart and Crown Chairs, New Haven:

New Haven Historical Society, 1977, pl. 17, p. 48.

$1,500-2,500

James (1912-1999) and Kathryn Abbe shared a love for art, antiques and photography. Each had well-established careers, James, as a pho-tographer and later as a well known dealer in Folk Art and Americana. He was known for his excellent taste and was a pioneering advocate for Folk Art, “The emphasis should be on the ‘Art’ and not the ‘Folk’ ” he would say. Kathryn, a photographer and an identical twin, is the author of several books; her work has been widely exhibited in museums and galleries. Each had a great eye, and when they worked together, the result was often splendid. They liked the juxtaposition of one object with another and the effects of light and shadow. Our January 22 sale features some of the best works from the folk art collection that they built together. Starting the sale off will be a Black Painted Queen Anne Heart and Crown Arm Chair with a classic shaped and pierced crest-rail and graceful arms that shows more than 250 years of usage; it was made in Connecticut in the fi rst-half of the 18th century (lot 1).

Prominent among the pieces is a rare 18th century Polychrome Painted White Pine Countertop Figure of a standing gentleman (lot 18). A pair of early folk art paintings of twins, circa 1815, is powerful for the sitters stern expressions and edginess (lot 3) that brings to mind

photographer Diane Arbus’s haunting work Identical Twins, Roselle, New Jersey, 1967.

The Abbes loved carved and painted wooden and metal fi gures. A painted wood, tin and iron fi gure of a rooster (lot 4), probably used

as a roof ornament, is a whimsical accessory to any home. A portrait of a Girl in a Rocking Chair by Asahel Powers (lot 15) is an excellent example of Powers’ work. As an untrained artist Powers had a diffi cult time making items appear to be anchored to the fl oor; the young girl appears to be fl oating.

Marsh and then, by her daughter, Ann. Each sampler

design created by a different student girl, all, apparently,

utilizing the Marsh School’s same art source material.

The rococo-carved walnut dressing table (lot 48) has acanthus leaf–carved front legs and central drawer with naturalistic shell and fl anking leafage attributed to the well-known carver Martin Jugiez (d. 1819). A pie-crust tea table (lot 61) is another wonderful example of Philadelphia rococo furniture. The table displays a crisply cut scalloped top and well-shaped acanthus leaf–carved cabriole legs.

The winsome Portrait of a Young Child in a White Dress and Red Shoes with Peach and

Dog by Deacon Robert Peckham (American, 1785-1877) (lot 39) is a colorful pastel portrait probably executed in Massachusetts circa 1830. It survives with its original glass and frame intact.

We also have a family reunion of sorts with a double portrait (c. 1828) by the

renowned deaf-mute artist John Brewster Jr. Portrait of Marcia Bowman Winter (b.

1824) and William Drew Winter (b. 1820) of Bath, Maine (lot 52). It is serendipitous that two of their siblings, Sarah and Wealthy Winter, also painted by Brewster at about the same time, were recently discovered at the family homestead in Maine. They are depicted in another double portrait in this sale consigned by direct descendants of the sitters (lot 49, front cover).

It is an honor and pleasure for Keno Auctions to offer for sale the Collection of Dr. and Mrs. Robert Isbell. People collect for a variety of reasons; the Isbells assem-bled a fabulous Americana collection because of their passion for each piece. Over three decades they sought out the best examples of high quality Colonial American furniture and folk art using the criteria of quality, rarity, condition and provenance as their guide. Two examples of Queen Anne furniture, each from mid-18th century Massachusetts, rank high on the scale in terms of the Isbell’s standards. The Queen Anne diminutive mahogany table with rectangular drop leaves (lot 53), is constructed of the very best quality highly fi gured mahogany, with powerful, yet graceful cabriole legs. One of just a few Queen Anne tables in the world of this small size, it also retains much of its original fi nish. The Cox-Pickering Bonnet-Top mahogany high chest (lot 40) displays vertical proportions, a crisply scalloped skirt and shell-carved drawers and an impeccable pedigree; the piece descended directly from Timothy Pickering (1702-1778) the prominent merchant of Salem, Massachusetts.

Philadelphia Chippendale furniture from the 1760s is well represented in the collection by two pieces, each purchased by the Isbells more than 20 years ago.

40The Cox-Pickering Family Queen Anne Bonnet-Top Walnut High Chest

Salem, Massachusetts, circa 1750

H. 88 ½ in.; W. 39 ½ in.; D. 21 in.

The High Chest, of a desirable small size, great proportions, retaining its original

brasses and fi nials, is a superlative example of its form. The fact that it has descended

directly in the prominent Pickering family of Salem adds to its importance.

Fire Bucket and silver bag inscribed: “FRANCIS COX / 1806” accompany this lot.

Provenance: Timothy Pickering (1702-1778) married Mary Wingate (1708-1784);

To their son, Timothy Pickering (1745-1829) married Rebecca White (1754-1828)

[Timothy held several cabinet positions under Presidents George Washington and

John Adams, including Postmaster General, Secretary of State, and Secretary of War];

To their son, John Pickering (1777-1846) married Sarah White (1777-1846);

To their son, John Pickering (1808-1882) married Mehitable Cox (1815-1879);

Property of Direct Descendants of the Sitters

49Attributed to John Brewster, Jr. (American, 1766-1854)

Double Portrait of Wealthy Jones Winter (b. 1819) and Sarah Marie Winter

(b. 1817)

Bath, Maine, circa 1827

Oil on canvas

22 x 17 inches

The Winter family traces its roots in Bath, Maine to the mid-eighteenth century, when

the grandfather of the sitters, Francis Winter, a Boston native and Harvard graduate

settled in Bath, Maine. At that time, Maine was still a part of Massachusetts and he

served as a representative to the Massachusetts legislature the First Congregational

Pastor in Bath. He married Abigal Alden (1750-1826) in 1768. Francis and Abigal

The following lot comprises a portrait of Wealthy and Sarah Winter, sisters of Marcia and William Winter (whose portrait will be offered as lot 52). The present owners of lot 49 are direct descendants of the Winter family. Keno auctions is honored to offer these sibling portraits in the same auction.

49

Winter had four children, including Samuel (1789-1835). He married Sarah Bowman

(1793-1828) in 1814. They had seven children, including the four depicted here in lots

49 and 52. Thier mother, Sarah Bowman (whose portrait, also by john Brewster, Jr., is

still in the family collection) died just six days after giving birth to her seventh child.

Thier father, Samuel Winter, a seaman, distiller and leader of the local Whig Party, was

regarded as a “notable citizen”. He died in 1835; his orphaned children were adopted

by family members.

The Winter Family homestead remains with the direct descendants to this day. Until

now, this portrait hung on the wall across from a portrait of their mother, Sarah

Bowman, since it was painted circa 1827. The portrait of William Drew and Marcia

Bowman Winter (offered as lot 52) was sold by the family some years ago and thus

the portraits were separated. It is serendipitous that these two portraits are reunited

for the fi rst time in more than thirty-fi ve years.

Provenance: Descended directly in the family of the sitters to the present owner.

Provenance: Descended directly in the Breckinridge

family to Mrs. Elizabeth (Breckinridge) Field and her

husband, Eben J.D. Cross II (classmate and lawyer of F.

Scott Fitzgerald);

To the present owner, her son in law

The founder of the Chandlee dynasty of clock and

scientifi c instrument makers was Benjamin Chandlee,

Sr., who migrated in 1702 from Ireland to Philadel-

phia, where he was apprenticed to Abel Cottey,

clockmaker, and eventually married Cottey’s daughter.

His son Benjamin Chandlee, Jr. (1723-1791), worked

as a clockmaker in Nottingham, Chester County

Pennsylvania, where he produced instruments as well

as clocks. He had four sons, Goldsmith, Ellis, John and

Isaac. Ellis Chandlee (1755-1816) was apprenticed to

his father, and he worked with his brothers in the shop.

He established the fi rm of Ellis Chandlee & Brothers

in 1790, shortly before his father’s death. The fi rm was

dissolved in 1797 when the youngest brother, John

Chandlee, left the fi rm. Ellis continued in partnership

with his other brother, Isaac Chandlee (1760-1813),

until about 1804, producing clocks, surveying instru-

ments, and other metal articles. Their products were

signed “Ellis and Isaac Chandlee, Nottingham,” or, in the

case of a surveying compass in the collection of the

Chester County Historical Society, “E. & I. Chandlee,

Nottingham.” Isaac Chandlee also produced clocks

and instruments on his own, for there are a number

of surviving clocks and surveying compasses signed in

such manner

has been re-glued.

This previously unrecorded dressing table is among the best veneered examples

known. The scale and proportion as well as the choice of crotch walnut veneers, light

and dark fan inlay and fully veneered sides are rare. It exhibits classic mid-18th century

Boston characteristics such as a veneered rectangular top, molded on all four sides,

the concave fan-decorated central drawer above the stepped fl at valences with typical

acorn pendants.

Provenance: A label attached to the inner front skirt reads: “Old family piece which has

always/ been in the house so far as we know/ Feet called “camel feet”/ AWS/ 1897.”

H. 31 ½ in.; W. 33 in.; D. 21 ¾ in.

The rectangular overhanging two board white pine top veneered with four book-

matched rectangular highly-fi gured veneered panels enclosed by light and dark wood

stringing edging a double band of herringbone veneer, a border of cross-banded

walnut veneer with a convex-molded walnut edge. The case below fi tted with an

arrangement of two short drawers above a pair of deep short drawers centered by

a deep drawer with concave inlaid lightwood fan motif. All drawers with a book-

matched crotch walnut veneered panels enclosed by light and dark wood stringing

and a double band of herringbone inlay and all fi tted with original Queen Anne

brasses. The veneered skirt with a pair of fl at arches fl anking a wider central fl at arch

that conforms to the concave drawer above. With turned acorn drop pendants, the

sides of the case, each with book-matched walnut veneer, on cabriole legs ending in

pad feet.

The piece has survived in an extraordinary state of preservation. The surface retains a

warm mellow patina. The Queen Anne brasses and turned drop pendants appear to

be original. The right drop pendant was missing the bead terminal. It was replaced by

Robert Fileti Restoration in June 2003. The left side front knee return appears to be

an old replacement. A veneered patch measuring approximately 1” x 1¼” has been

replaced on the veneered skirt of the central arch. A single strip of veneered banding

architectural features and geometric order, which he

accented by placing the house in the background of a

geometrically ordered natural environment.

Furniture (N.Y., 1950), p. 100; and as “Masterpiece” in Albert Sack, The New Fine Points

of Furniture (N.Y., 1993), p. 103

The chest with a richly fi gured crotch mahogany overhanging rectangular molded-

front serpentine top above a conforming cock-beaded case fi tted with four graduated

long drawers over a molded base with boldly carved claw-and-ball feet and spur

returns.

Chests with serpentine blocked-end facades were among the most expensive forms

of case furniture produced in eighteenth century New England.

This chest is an extremely successful example of the form in the beauty and execution

of its design, and the selection of richly swirled dense mahogany. The proportions are

superb; the narrow case is balanced by the generous overhanging top. In addition, the

carved claw-and-ball feet are boldly carved expression of the design element, with

well-articulated talons gripping the carved ball.

Please note: Typical of Boston practice, the top is attached to the case sides with a slid-

ing dovetail, the drawers have fi ne dovetails and the drawer bottoms are chamfered

and received into the drawer front and sides. The claw-and-ball feet are tenoned up

through the case (rather than just being glued on the underside and secured with

additional glue blocks in the standard manner. This through-tenon method was a more

laborious means of construction, yet yielded a stronger bond with the case.).

109A Pair of Polychrome Painted Bass-Wood Blackamoors

Probably English, 18th century

Early Blackamours are very rare. The design of this pair,

with tubaned fi gures on tripod bases comprised of

acanthus leaf carved cabriole legs ending in bold claw

and ball feet, is very dramatic and appropriate for what

one would expect to be produced for a home in 18th

century England, or its American colonies.

Wood analysis by Henry Alden confi rms that the

wood of the tables is bass-wood, also known in Eng-

land as lime-wood. This hardwood was popular with

carvers in England because of its close grain. Grinling

Gibbons (1648-1721) did most of his fl ower and fi gure

carvings for St. Paul’s Cathedral and Windsor Castle

in lime-wood. Bass-wood was also often used as a

secondary wood for craftsmen such as Japanners.

An additional report by Jennifer Mass, Senior Scientist

at Winterthur, confi rms the presence of seven paint

layers executed in period techniques including smalt,

verdigris and bronze powder paint.

$2,000-4,000

The Course of Empire is a fi ve-part series of paintings

created by Thomas Cole in the years 1833-36. The

series refl ected popular American sentiments of the

times, when many saw pastoralism as the ideal phase of

human civilization, fearing that imperialism would lead to

decadence and inevitable decay.

The series was acquired by The New-York Historical

Society in 1858 as a gift of the New-York Gallery of

Fine Arts, and comprises the following works: The Course

of Empire - The Savage State; The Course of Empire - The

Arcadian or Pastoral State; The Course of Empire - The

Consummation of Empire; The Course of Empire - Destruc-

tion; and The Course of Empire - Desolation.

The series of paintings depicts the growth and fall of

an imaginary city, situated on the lower end of a river

valley, near its meeting with a bay of the sea. The valley is

distinctly identifi able in each of the paintings, in part be-

cause of an unusual landmark: a large boulder is precari-

ously situated atop a crag overlooking the valley. Some

critics believe this is meant to contrast the immutability

of the earth with the transience of man.

THE COLLECTION OF JOANNE AND JEFFREY KLEIN

Collectors Joanne and Jeffrey Klein enjoy the eclectic mix of American folk art, painted furniture and modern sculpture and paintings. They love the juxtaposition of modern with traditional ranging from symbolism to widely varying textured painted and weathered surfaces. Their appreciation of form, color and texture is exhibited in their collection of exceptional painted furniture, weathervanes, redware pottery, hooked rugs and wood carvings. Over a period of about 30 years, dealer and consultant Mary Beth Keene, then working at Wayne Pratt Inc., expertly guided and advised them on the very best of their acquisitions. Typical of the quality of several weathervanes in the collection is the wonderful gilt cop-per peacock, circa 1865, (lot 121) and the leaping stag, attributed to Harris & co. Boston (lot 123).

The Queen Anne Salmon-Painted Chest of Five Drawers, made circa 1795, (lot 122) and attributed to Samuel Dunlap of New Hampshire, is the collection’s mas-

terpiece. This bold form, a case of drawers raised on graceful cabriole legs, most remarkably retains its original salmon red paint, and the oval pressed brasses are also original. Not only is it a sublimely beautiful object in remarkable condition; it is a rare Rosetta stone for Samuel Dunlap furniture. The equivalent in vintage car world would be a beautiful 1959 Ferrari Testarossa racing car which has survived with its original paint.

The Kleins assembled a spectacular group of Windsor armchairs with an emphasis on great form and excellent surface. It is rare to see such a fi ne group of exam-ples in one collection (lot 50).

Joanne and Jeffrey Klein are the perfect example of a couple who simply bought what pleased them and as a result formed a truly wonderful collection. It is an honor and a pleasure to offer these pieces at Keno Auctions.

Gerald W.R. Ward in American Case Furniture states that eight fi ve-drawer chests were

entered into Samuel Dunlap’s account book between 1785 and 1820. Characteristic

of Dunlap school fi ve-drawer chests, this example exhibits pad feet, cornice molding

and lipped drawers. The nearly identical chest in the Yale Gallery of Art collection has

been furnished with replacement brasses and stripped of its original red paint, though

according to Ward’s entry, traces of red paint remain. On the present example, the

brasses (with the exception of the bottom right brass, which is an early replacement)

and paint in this example are entirely original.

138Red Painted Comb-Back Windsor Arm Chair with Knuckle Arms

Isaac Kitchell (working 1789-1812)

New York, 1790-1795

Branded on bottom: “Ic. KITCHEL” and an owner’s

H. 36 ½ in.

Literature: Nancy Goyne Evans, American Windsor

Chairs, New York: Hudson Hills Press, 1996, p. 199, fi g.

Continuing the Philadelphia fashion, Kitchell uses a

similar crest rail with scroll motif and knuckle arms

as illustrated on p. 91 of American Windsor Chairs. A

trend for high-back Windsor chairs was established in

Connecticut in the 1780s, and Kitchell continued the

style in New York soon after. This example, however,

more closely relates to the fi ner details of Philadelphia

models. A simpler example (with a replaced medial

stretcher) is illustrated in American Windsor Chairs, fi g.

5-10. Both models feature the “Ic. KITCHEL” brand

mark and an owner’s brand, “G.M. TIBBITS.”

This hand sculpted sculpture stands on its original cast-iron base.

H. 49 in.

Dr. Auzoux’s realized in 1822 during his medical training, that cadavers rapidly deterio-

rated and wax models were not readily available, hence there was a need in the fi eld

for anatomically correct models. The workshop of Louis Auzoux used an innovative

papier-mâché method to cast anatomical fi gures for teaching purposes. (reference:

Maine Antiques Digest, June, 2012). The internal body cavity and head open and, like

the exterior they are meticulously labeled with Latin inscriptions on small strips of

paper.

228 New Mexican Folk Art Death Cart Figure

Attributed to Frank Applegate (American, 1881-1931)

New Mexico, circa 1925

Death carts, with their terrifying fi gures of La Muerte, are a peculiarly New Mexican art

form, appearing in the Holy Week processions of the Brotherhood. In their secret rites,

Penitentes dragged the heavy, cumbersome death carts to calvarios, where they com-

memorated the Crucifi xion. The fi gure and cart represents the power of death during the

period between the crucifi xion and the resurrection, and the ritual foretells the miracle of

Christ’s ultimate triumph over death.

Portrait of Margaret Irvine (Mrs. John) Miller

(1756-1847)

Circa 1805-1807

Oil on canvas

27 x 22 ½ inches

This portrait exemplifi es Peale’s tendency to take

liberty with the way in which he portrayed his sitters.

Mr. and Mrs. Miller begin as a working class family

who later raised their position in Philadelphia society.

Though her clothing is aristocratic, Mrs. Miller’s pose

and gaze are those of a straightforward, working class

woman. Likewise, Peale depicts her husband in a fi ne

suit, resting on a stone, with detailed work affected.

Mr. John Miller (1754-1814), a stonecutter, and his fam-

ily were painted in exchange for steps and chimney

pieces for Peale’s house. The fi ve other family por-

traits are also illustrated in the exhibition catalog.

Mr. Breckinridge are quite rare.

An often reproduced painting by Alban Jasper Conaut

after Breckinridge’s death.

Bidding Increments The auctioneer will commence the bidding at any level and in increments con-sidered appropriate. Bids will be sought in increments selected by the auction-eer who will have the absolute discretion to select any increments for any lot (and the discretion to vary the increments in the course of the bidding for any lot). However, generally speaking, the increments will depend upon the low estimate for the lot. Thus for example, for lots having a low estimate below $1,000, bids will be sought at increments of $50. The normal pattern for bid-ding increments will be as follows:

Low Estimate Increments< 999 $50s$1,000 – 1,999 $100s$2,000 – 4,999 $250s$5,000 – 9,999 $500s$10,000 – 29,999 $1,000s$30,000 – 49,999 $2,500s$50,000 – 99,999 $5,000s> $100,000 at auctioneer’s discretion

These increments may vary during the course of the auction at the discretion of the auctioneer.

Estimates Pre-sale estimates are provided to encourage competitive bidding. These esti-mates may not be relied upon as any predictions of the selling price and may not be considered to be any opinion or representation regarding the value of the property. Keno Auctions shall not be responsible or liable for any differ-ence between a pre-sale estimate and the actual selling price for any lot.

Reserves Unless otherwise indicated, all lots are offered subject to a reserve, which is a confi dential minimum price set by the seller below which the lot will be not be sold. The reserve will not exceed a given low pre-sale estimate at the time of the auction. Regardless of whether there is a reserve, the auctioneer may reject any bid and withdraw any lot for any reason. In order to comply with the seller’s reserve on any lot, the auctioneer may open bidding by placing a bid on behalf of the seller. The auctioneer may bid further on behalf of the seller (i.e. a bid from the book held by the auctioneer) up to the amount of the reserve by placing consecutive bids or by placing bids in response to other bidders. If a lot is not sold, the auctioneer will announce that fact (normally by stating that the lot has been unsold or passed).

Property of Keno Auctions / Guarantees Should Keno Auctions own any lot in whole or in part or have a fi nancial inter-est in any lot equivalent to an ownership interest, the catalogue will clearly iden-tify any such property as the Property of Keno Auctions. From time to time, a lot may be offered for which a guaranteed minimum price or an advance secured by the consigned property has been given to the seller. Such property will be identifi ed in the catalogue with the symbol * next to the lot number.

AFTER THE SALE

Successful BidsKeno Auctions is not able to notify successful absentee bidders. While invoices are sent out by mail after the auction we do not accept responsibility for notifying you of the result of your bid. Buyers are requested to contact us by telephone or in person as soon as possible after the sale to obtain details of the outcome of their bids to avoid incurring unnecessary handling charges.

Buyer’s Premium A buyer’s premium will be added to the hammer price of each lot and is pay-able as part of the total purchase price (comprising the hammer price, buyer’s premium and any applicable taxes). The buyer’s premium is 24% of the hammer price.

Sales TaxUnless exempted by applicable law, all purchases are subject to the 8.875% sales tax of the City and State of New York. Any buyer claiming exemption from sales tax must have the appropriate documentation on fi le with Keno Auctions prior to the release of the property.

Conditions of SaleParticipation in this auction is subject to and governed by the following contrac-tual terms. Each prospective buyer is deemed to have reviewed, understood and accepted these conditions of sale and participation in the auction in any manner (in person, by telephone, by written bid or on-line) constitute an accep-tance of these conditions of sale by the participant.

BEFORE THE SALECondition Every item offered for sale will be sold subject to the actual condition of the property at the time of the sale (generally referred to as ‘as is’). Prospective buyers are permitted and strongly encouraged to thoroughly examine any prop-erty before the auction with the understanding that there is no representation or warranty of any kind concerning the condition or any of the physical aspects of any items offered for sale. Catalogue descriptions or verbal statements are offered as opinion and shall not constitute a representation or warranty or assumption of liability of any nature whatsoever.

Registration before Bidding Prospective buyers who wish to bid in the saleroom can register online in advance of the sale, or can come to the saleroom approximately 30 minutes before the start of the sale to register in person. A prospective buyer must complete and sign a registration form and provide identifi cation (including a check acceptance form) before bidding.

Absentee Bidding Reasonable efforts will be used to carry out written bids delivered to us before the sale for the convenience of prospective purchasers who are not present at the auction in person, by an agent or by telephone. If written bids for identi-cal amounts are submitted for the same lot and are the highest bids on this lot at the auction, the property will be sold to the person whose written bid was received and accepted fi rst. Execution of written bids is a free service under-taken subject to other commitments at the time of the sale and there shall be no liability for failing to execute any written bid or for errors and omissions in connection with any written bid.

Telephone Bidding Telephone bids will be accepted on lots with a low estimate of more than $2,500, no later than twenty-four (24) hours prior to the commencement of the sale and only if capacity allows. Arrangements to bid in languages other than English must be made well in advance of the sale. We will use reasonable efforts to contact prospective purchasers to enable them to participate in the bidding by telephone as a free service, however there will be no liability for any failure or for any errors or omissions in connection with telephone bidding.

Online BiddingPlease register for online bidding at KenoAuctions.com. Reasonable efforts will be exerted to place on-line bids in the saleroom. However there will be no liability for any failure or error in the placement of such bids.

AT THE SALE

Terms of Bidding The auctioneer has the absolute and sole discretion to refuse any bid and to advance the bidding in any manner. The auctioneer also has the right to with-draw any lot, and in the case of error and dispute (whether during or after the sale) to determine the successful bidder, to continue the bidding, to cancel the sale or to reoffer and resell the property. The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer will be the purchaser. In the case of a tie bid, the winning bidder will be determined at the sole discretion of the auctioneer. In the event of a dispute between bidders, the auctioneer has fi nal discretion to determine the successful bidder or to reoffer the lot in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, the sale record of the auctioneer is conclusive.

Participation in the auction may be disallowed for any reason. A bid is an offer to purchase and by making a successful bid, a bidder is accepting personal liabil-ity to pay the purchase price, plus the buyer’s premium, all applicable taxes and all other applicable charges.


In the event that the property is removed from the auction premises by Keno Auctions, the buyer will be charged for 120% of the actual packing and shipping cost incurred in transporting the property and a daily storage charge of 1.5% of the purchase price of the property (commencing on the day following the completion of the auction). At the option of Keno Auctions the property may be transferred to and stored at a bonded warehouse and the buyer agrees to pay all the transfer and storage expenses and accepts all risks of loss or damage. Keno Auctions will only release the items after payment in full has been made of transportation, administration, handling, insurance any other costs incurred, together with all other amounts due to us.

Warranty Except as specifi cally described in this particular condition, Keno Auctions makes no representation or warranty of any kind as to the accuracy of any description of any lot and any information regarding any subject including quality, authentic-ity, medium, size, date, importance, rarity, provenance or historical relevance. Any statements made in the catalogue or at the sale or in any invoice or in any other writing shall not be deemed or constitute any warranty, representation, statement of fact or assumption of liability. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Keno Auctions will warrant the accuracy of any statement or information set forth in BOLD type in the catalogue description of the lot, unless clearly and conspicuously modifi ed prior to the bidding on the applicable lot. This warranty regarding the information in bold type shall exist for a period of fi ve (5) years from the date of the auction and is given solely to and strictly for the benefi t of the original purchaser of record at the auction. It may not be transferred to any third party. Furthermore, the exclusive remedy of the original buyer in the event of any inaccuracy not otherwise excluded herein shall be a refund of the hammer price and buyer’s premium actually paid by the buyer for the lot at the time of the sale. Keno Auctions and its consignor shall not be liable for any incidental or consequential damages incurred or claimed under this warranty.

The warranty does not apply if: (i) a written claim supported by a written report by a recognized expert in the applicable fi eld is not delivered by the original buyer to Keno Auctions before the expiration of fi ve (5) years from the date of the sale; or (ii) the catalogue description was consistent with the opinion(s) of generally accepted scholar(s) and/or expert(s) at the date of the sale; or (iii) the only method of establishing any inaccuracy in the warranted informa-tion is by means or processes not generally available or accepted at the time of the auction sale or by means and processes at the time of the auction sale that could have caused damage to the lot or could have caused loss of value to the lot; or (iv) there has been no material loss in value of the lot from its value had it been in accordance with its description in the Bold type; or (v) the property is not returned to Keno Auctions in the same condition as on the date of the auction sale.

Governing Law These Conditions of Sale and the rights and obligations of all participants here-under, shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. The buyer and any agent for the buyer shall be deemed to have consented to the jurisdiction of the state courts of, and the federal courts sitting in, the State of New York.

Notice: Regarding jewelry, all weights and dimensions are approximate only. It is strongly recommended that you bring your own expert to examine any prop-erty prior to the auction. Regarding colored stones: Historically colored stones have been enhanced or treated to improve their appearance. It is widely believed that these treatments are permanent; buyers should assume that treatments may not be permanent and stones may require additional care over time. These treatments have been accepted by the jewelry trade. Keno Auctions, its employees, or representatives make no opinions or warran-ties regarding these enhancements/ treatments. All Jewelry is sold as is with no representations of enhancements, treatments or assumption of liability is assumed. This includes all weights, measurements, carats and clarity.

(i) to charge interest at a rate of 1.5% per month;(ii) to charge $50 for any dishonored check; (iii) to hold the defaulting buyer liable for the total amount due and to com-mence legal proceedings for its recovery together with interest, legal fees and costs to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law; (iv) to cancel the sale; (v) to resell the property publicly or privately on any terms; (vi) to pay the seller an amount up to the net proceeds payable in respect of the amount bid by the defaulting buyer; (vii) where several amount are owed by the buyer in respect of different pur-chases, to apply any amount paid to discharge any amount owed in respect of any particular transaction, whether or not the buyer so directs; (viii) to reject at any future auction any bids made by or on behalf of the buyer or to obtain a deposit from the buyer before accepting any bids; (ix) to exercise all the rights and remedies of a person holding security over any property in our possession owned by the buyer, whether by way of pledge, security interest or in any other way, to the fullest extent permitted by the law of the place where such property is located and in this regard the buyer will be deemed to have granted such security to Keno Auctions which may retain such property as collateral security for such buyer’s obligations; (x) to take such other action as may be deemed necessary or appropriate. If the property is resold as described above, the defaulting buyer shall be liable for payment of any defi ciency between the total amount originally due and the price obtained upon resale as well as all costs, expenses, damages, legal fees and commissions and premiums of whatever kind associated with both sales or oth-erwise arising from the default.
