<strong>Auction</strong> viewings are open to the public and usually take place<br />

All lots are guaranteed for fourteen (14) days from the<br />

Estimates<br />
Estimates are printed in the catalogue beside every lot and<br />

Bidding<br />
Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers offer four bidding options:<br />
1. <strong>Auction</strong> Room Bidding<br />
To bid in person we suggest you arrive early so that you<br />
have sufficient time to register for a bidding number prior<br />
to the auction. If this is your first time bidding with Gibson’s<br />
<strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers please bring photo identification, such<br />
as a driver’s licence or passport with you.<br />
2. Telephone Bidding<br />
Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers offer telephone bidding on all<br />
lots, at all auctions.<br />
Telephone Bidding is a convenient solution if you are unable to<br />
attend an auction in person. A Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers<br />
staff member will call you approximately 5 lots in advance and<br />
with your instruction, bid on your behalf at the auction.<br />
Please note: Telephone Bids must be organised at least 24<br />
hours prior to the auction and that occasionally, the number<br />
of telephone bidders available may be restricted when the<br />
auction is offsite.<br />
To organise a Telephone Bid please follow the link<br />
to the Telephone Bidding form on our website:<br />
www.gibsonsauctions.com.au.<br />
Please fill in & return via email to mail@gibsonsauctions.com.au<br />
If this is your first time bidding with Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers &<br />
Valuers, an email address is to be supplied when you submit<br />
your Telephone Bid, along with clear Photo ID verifying<br />
your address.

3. Absentee Bids<br />
Absentee Bidding is another convenient solution if you<br />
are unable to attend an auction in person, to speak on the<br />
telephone or if you simply have a strict budget.<br />
An Absentee Bid should be set at the maximum amount<br />
you wish to bid on the lot/s you are interested in purchasing.<br />
Should the lot/s be knocked down at an amount lower than<br />
the bid recorded on your form, the lot will be sold to you for<br />
the lesser hammer price.<br />
Please note Absentee Bids must be received at least 24 hours<br />
prior to the auction to allow time for processing.<br />
To organise an Absentee Bid please follow the link to<br />
the Absentee Bidding form available on our website:<br />
www.gibsonsauctions.com.au.<br />

time with a live broadcast of the auction. To bid online visit<br />
our website and follow the ‘Live Bidding’ link under the<br />
‘<strong>Auction</strong>s’ tab.<br />
Please register for this service at least 24 hours prior to the<br />

<strong>The</strong> Collection of Billie Tyrrell<br />
Kathleen Patricia Ince, known always as<br />
Billie, was born in Malvern in 1924. She<br />
spent most of her early life at Katanga,<br />
an elegant home designed by prominent<br />
architect Harold Desbrowe-Annear, which<br />
still stands in Glenferrie Road. Katanga<br />
was built by her father Wesley Armstrong<br />
Ince, a prominent lawyer, who, with his wife<br />
Elsie, loved to entertain. Billie and her sister<br />
Betty were brought up surrounded by fine<br />
art, furnishings, china and silver which was<br />
the basis of her love for beautiful things,<br />
particularly antiques and silver.<br />
Despite the War, the Ince sisters were very<br />
social and often featured in the papers,<br />
known as some of Melbourne’s best<br />
dressed. Billie attended finishing school at<br />
Invergowrie before studying physiotherapy<br />
at Melbourne University and, shortly after<br />
graduating, moved to practice in London.<br />
In 1957 Billie married Harry Tyrrell, a<br />
former Naval Lieutenant and the founder<br />
of National Can Industries. <strong>The</strong>y had two<br />
children, Alexandra and Michael. Together<br />
they built, and lived in, houses in Toorak,<br />
then Hawthorn, before retiring to a life spent<br />
between an elegant apartment in Clivedon,<br />
East Melbourne and a farming property on<br />
the Gippsland Lakes, satisfying Billie’s love of<br />
horses and Harry’s love of the sea.<br />
During her long marriage to Harry, Billie<br />
became increasingly passionate, and<br />
knowledgeable, about sterling silver<br />
and porcelain. She amassed substantial<br />
collections both locally and during their<br />
extensive travels to Europe, the UK<br />
and New Zealand.<br />
Billie died at the age of 93.

A gilt bronze figure of Avalokitesvara<br />
Qing dynasty, 18th century<br />
the deity with eleven heads standing in samabhanga on<br />
a later lotus base, with eight arms extended in various<br />
mudras or holding an attribute, wearing a dhoti, jewellery<br />
and a trailing scarf, the principal hands held in anjalimudra<br />
before the chest, the faces with serene expressions apart<br />
from the one head with fierce expression<br />
18cm high overall<br />
<strong>The</strong> eleven headed Avalokitesvara is an esoteric form<br />
of the Bodhisattva, believed to have overcome eleven<br />
hardships in order to attain Buddhahood. Another<br />
explanation is that Avalokistesvara fails to fulfil his vow of<br />
saving all sentient souls from hell and his head splits into<br />
one hundred pieces. Amitabha Buddha gathered up the<br />
pieces and consolidated them into ten heads crowning<br />
them with one of his own to show that Amitabha is always<br />
there to aid him in his goal of universal salvation<br />

1. Background to the Terms used in<br />
these Conditions<br />
<strong>The</strong> conditions that are listed below contain terms<br />
that are used regularly and may need explanation.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y are as follows:<br />
“the Buyer” means the person with the highest bid<br />
accepted by the <strong>Auction</strong>eer<br />
“the Lot” means any item depicted within the sale for<br />
auction and in particular the item or items described<br />
against any lot number in the catalogue.<br />
“the Hammer price” means the amount of the highest<br />
bid accepted by the auctioneer in relation to a lot<br />
“the Buyers Premium” means the charge payable by<br />
the Buyer to the auction house as a percentage of<br />
the hammer price.<br />
“the Reserve” means the lowest amount at which<br />
Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers has agreed with the<br />
Seller that the lot can be sold.<br />
“Forgery” means an item constituting an imitation<br />
originally conceived and executed as a whole, with<br />
a fraudulent intention to deceive as to authorship,<br />
origin, age, period, culture or source, where the<br />
correct description as to such matters is not<br />
reflected by the description in the catalogue.<br />
Accordingly no lot shall be capable of being a forgery<br />
by reason of any damage or restoration work of any<br />
kind (Including re-painting).<br />
“the insured value” means the amount that Gibson’s<br />
<strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers in its absolute discretion<br />
from time to time shall consider the value for which<br />
a lot should be covered for insurance (whether or<br />
not insurance is arranged by Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers<br />
& Valuers.)<br />
All values expressed in Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers &<br />
Valuers Pty Ltd catalogues (in any format) are in<br />
Australian Dollars (AU$). All bids, “hammer price”,<br />
“reserves”, “Buyers Premium” and other expressions<br />

2. Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers<br />
<strong>Auction</strong>s as Agent<br />
Except as otherwise stated Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers &<br />
Valuers Pty Ltd acts as agent for the Seller.<br />
<strong>The</strong> contract for the sale of the property is therefore<br />
made between the Seller and the Buyer.<br />
3. Before the Sale<br />
A) EXAMINATION OF PROPERTY<br />
Prospective Buyers are strongly advised to examine<br />
in person any property in which they are interested<br />
before the <strong>Auction</strong> takes place. Neither Gibson’s<br />
<strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers nor the Seller provides any<br />
guarantee in relation to the nature of the property<br />
apart from the Limited warranty in the paragraph<br />
below.<br />
<strong>The</strong> property is otherwise sold “AS IS”<br />
B) CATALOGUE AND OTHER DESCRIPTIONS<br />
All statements by Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers<br />
in the catalogue entry for the property or in the<br />
condition report, or made orally or in writing<br />
elsewhere, are statements of opinion and are not<br />
to be relied upon as statements of fact. Such<br />
statements do not constitute a representation,<br />
warranty or assumption of liability by Gibson’s<br />
<strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers of any kind. References in the<br />
catalogue entry to the condition report to damage<br />
or restoration are for guidance only and should be<br />
evaluated by personal inspection by the bidder or<br />
a knowledgeable representative. <strong>The</strong> absence of<br />
such a reference does not imply that an item is free<br />
from defects or restoration, nor does a reference to<br />
particular defects imply the absence of any others.<br />
Estimates of the selling price should not be relied<br />
on as a statement that this is the price at which<br />
the item will sell or it’s value for any other purpose.<br />
Neither Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers nor <strong>The</strong><br />
Seller is responsible for any errors or omissions in the<br />
catalogue or any supplemental material.<br />
Images are measured height by width (sight size).<br />
Illustrations are provided only as a guide and should<br />
not be relied upon as a true representation of colour<br />
or condition. Images are not shown at a standard<br />
scale. Mention is rarely made of frames (which may be<br />
provided as supplementary images on the website)<br />
which do not form part of the lot as described in the<br />
printed catalogue.<br />
Foreign buyers should note that all transactions<br />
are in Australian dollars (AU$)so there may be a<br />
small exchange rate risk. <strong>The</strong> costs associated<br />
with acquiring a good certificate will be carried by<br />
the purchaser. If the item turns out to be forged or<br />
otherwise incorrectly described, all reasonable costs<br />
will be borne by the vendor.<br />
C) BUYERS RESPONSIBILITY<br />
All property is sold “as is” without representation<br />
or warranty of any kind by Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers<br />
& Valuers or the Seller. Buyers are responsible for<br />
satisfying themselves concerning the condition<br />
of the property and the matters referred to in the<br />
catalogue by requesting a condition report<br />

other applicable charges, unless it has been explicitly<br />
agreed in writing with Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers<br />
before the commencement of the sale that the<br />
bidder is acting as agent on behalf of an identified<br />
third party acceptable to Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers &<br />
Valuers and that Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers will<br />
only look to the principal for payment.<br />

prior arrangement. This deposit is redeemable<br />
against any auction purchase.<br />
E) ABSENTEE BIDS<br />
Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers will use reasonable<br />
efforts to execute written bids delivered to us AT<br />
LEAST 24 Hours before the sale for the convenience<br />
of those clients who are unable to attend the auction<br />
in person. If we receive identical written bids on a<br />
particular lot, and at the auction these are the highest<br />
bids on that lot, then the lot will be sold to the person<br />
whose written bid was received and accepted first.<br />
Execution of written bids is a free service undertaken<br />
subject to other commitments at the time of the sale<br />
and we do not accept liability for failing to execute<br />
a written bid or for errors or omissions which may<br />
arise. It is the bidder’s responsibility to check with<br />
Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers after the auction if<br />
they were successful. Unlimited or “Buy” bids will not<br />
be accepted. Please refer to our indicative bidding<br />

listed here and accepts that Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers<br />
& Valuers cannot be held responsible for any<br />
mis-communications in the process. <strong>The</strong> success<br />

circumstances that are unforeseen. Buyers should<br />

accuracy of the relevant information regarding bids,<br />
lot numbers and contact details.<br />
H) RESERVES<br />
Unless otherwise indicated, all lots are offered subject<br />
to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum price<br />
below which the Lot will not be sold. <strong>The</strong> reserve will<br />
not exceed the low estimate printed in the catalogue.<br />
<strong>The</strong> auctioneer may open the bidding on any Lot<br />
below the reserve by placing a bid on behalf of the<br />
Seller. <strong>The</strong> auctioneer may continue to bid on behalf<br />
of seller up to the amount of the reserve, either<br />
by placing consecutive bids or by placing bids in<br />
response to other bidders.<br />
I) AUCTIONEERS DISCRETION<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Auction</strong>eer has the right at his absolute and sole<br />
discretion to refuse any bid, to advance the bidding<br />
in such a manner as he may decide, to withdraw or<br />
divide any lot, to combine any two or more lots and,<br />
in the case or error or dispute and whether during or
165<br />
after the sale, to determine the successful bidder, to<br />
continue the bidding, to cancel the sale or to reoffer<br />
and resell the item in dispute. If any dispute arises<br />
after the sale, then Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers’s<br />
sale record is conclusive.<br />
J) SUCCESSFUL BID AND PASSING OF RISK<br />
Subject to the auctioneer’s discretion, the highest<br />
bidder accepted by the auctioneer will be the buyer<br />
and the striking of his hammer marks the acceptance<br />
of the highest bid and the conclusion of a contract<br />
for sale between the Seller and the Buyer. Risk and<br />
responsibility for the lot (including frames or glass<br />
where relevant) passes immediately to the Buyer.<br />

by the defaulting Buyer. In these circumstances<br />
the defaulting Buyer can have no claim upon<br />
Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers in the event that<br />
the item(s) are sold for an amount greater than<br />
the original invoiced amount.<br />
vi)<br />
vii)<br />
to set off against any amounts which Gibson’s<br />
<strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers may owe the Buyer in<br />
any other transactions, the outstanding amount<br />
remaining unpaid by the Buyer.<br />
where several amounts are owed by the Buyer to<br />
us, in respect of different transactions, to apply<br />
any amount paid to discharge any amount owed<br />
in respect of any particular transaction, whether<br />
or not the Buyer so directs.<br />
viii) to reject at any future auction any bids made by<br />
or on behalf of the Buyer or to obtain a deposit<br />
from the Buyer prior to accepting any bids.<br />
ix)<br />
to exercise all the rights and remedies of a<br />
person holding security over any property in<br />
our possession owned by the Buyer whether by<br />
way of pledge, security interest or in any other<br />
way, to the fullest extent permitted by the law of<br />
the place where such property is located. <strong>The</strong><br />
Buyer will be deemed to have been granted such<br />
security to us and we may retain such property<br />
as collateral security for such Buyer’s obligations<br />
to us.<br />
x) to take such other action as Gibson’s<br />
<strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers deem necessary or<br />
appropriate<br />
If we do sell the property under paragraph<br />
(iv), then the defaulting Buyer shall be liable<br />
for payment of any deficiency between the<br />
total amount originally due to us and the<br />
price obtained upon reselling as well as for<br />
all costs, expenses, damages, legal fees and<br />
commissions and premiums of whatever kinds<br />
associated with both sales or otherwise arising<br />
from the default.<br />
If we pay any amount to the Seller under<br />
paragraph (v) the Buyer acknowledges that<br />
Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers shall have all<br />
of the rights of the Seller, however arising, to<br />
pursue the Buyer for such amount.<br />
G) FAILURE TO COLLECT PURCHASES<br />
Where purchases are not collected within three (3)<br />
days from the sale date, whether or not payment<br />
has been made, we shall be permitted to remove the<br />
property to a warehouse at the buyer’s expense, and<br />
only release the items after payment in full has been<br />
made of removal, storage handling, insurance and<br />
any other costs incurred, together with payment of all<br />
other amounts due to us.<br />

concerning any lot, whether written or oral, nor<br />
for any other errors or omissions in description<br />
or for any faults or defects in any lots. Except as<br />
stated in paragraph 7 below, neither the Seller<br />
ourselves, our officers, agents or employees give any<br />

such description may be amended by any saleroom<br />
notice or announcement) which is stated without<br />
qualification to be the work of a named author or
166<br />
authorship is authentic and not a forgery. <strong>The</strong> term<br />
“Author” or “authorship” refers to the creator of the<br />
property or to the period, culture, source, or origin<br />
as the case may be, with which the creation of such<br />
property is identified in the catalogue.<br />
<strong>The</strong> warranty is subject to the following:<br />
i) it does not apply where a) the catalogue<br />
description or saleroom notice corresponded<br />
to the generally accepted opinion of scholars<br />
and experts at the date of the sale or fairly<br />
indicated that there was a conflict of opinions,<br />
or b) correct identification of a lot can be<br />
demonstrated only by means of a scientific<br />
process not generally accepted for use until<br />
after publication of the catalogue or a process<br />
which at the date of the publication of the<br />
catalogue was unreasonably expensive or<br />
impractical or likely to have caused damage to<br />
the property.<br />
ii)<br />
iii)<br />
iv)<br />
the benefits of the warranty are not assignable<br />
and shall apply only to the original buyer of the<br />
lot as shown on the invoice originally issued by<br />
Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers when the lot was<br />
sold at <strong>Auction</strong>.<br />
the Original Buyer must have remained the<br />
owner of the lot without disposing of any interest<br />
in it to any third party<br />

special, incidental nor consequential damages<br />

<strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers to decide whether or not<br />
to cancel the sale under warranty.<br />

the Buyer must return the lot to Seller in the<br />
same condition that it was purchased.<br />

shall be discounted and the rest of the Conditions<br />
shall continue to be valid to the fullest extent<br />
permitted by law.<br />

15. Jewels & Watches<br />
GEMSTONES<br />
Gemstones have historically been subjected to a<br />
variety of treatments to enhance their appearance.<br />
Sapphire and rubies are routinely heat treated to<br />
improve their colour and clarity, similarly emeralds<br />
are frequently treated with oils or resin for the same<br />
purpose. Other treatments such as staining or dyeing,<br />
irradiation, filling or coating may have been used<br />
on other precious and semi-precious gemstones<br />
and organic material. <strong>The</strong>se treatments may be<br />
permanent, whilst others may need special care to<br />
preserve their appearance. Buyers should assume<br />
that each lot has been subject to some form of<br />
treatment and that the estimates reflect this.<br />
A number of laboratories issue certificates that<br />
give detailed descriptions of gemstones, and in<br />
the event that Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers has<br />
been supplied with or obtained certificates for any<br />
lot, this shall be noted in the catalogue. However,<br />
as there may not be consensus between different<br />
laboratories on the degree, or types of treatment<br />
of the gemstones, Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers<br />
supplies these without warranty.<br />
Buyers should assume that all gemstones sold by<br />
Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers may have been<br />
subjected to such treatments, and that the catalogue<br />
estimates reflect this.<br />
PEARLS<br />
Pearls, like gemstones, are also subject to various<br />
treatments. Buyers should assume that any pearls<br />
sold by Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers may have<br />
been subjected to such treatments, and that the<br />
catalogue estimates reflect this.<br />
WATCHES<br />
Please note: All watches sold by Gibson’s<br />
<strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers are sold on an “as is”<br />
basis. Gibson’s <strong>Auction</strong>eers & Valuers makes no<br />
representation or warranty that any watch is in<br />
working order. Many watches have been repaired<br />
over their lifetime and may contain non-original parts.<br />
<strong>The</strong> absence of any reference to the condition of a<br />
watch does not imply that the lot is in good condition<br />
and without defects, repairs or restorations. Buyers<br />
should be aware that a general service, change of<br />
battery or further repair work, for which the Buyer is<br />
solely responsible for, may be necessary.<br />
ESTIMATED WEIGHTS<br />
If a stone has a known weight, it has been weighed<br />
out of the mount. If a stone has an estimated weight,<br />
it is an approximate weight only and has been<br />
measured by us in the mount and is a statement of<br />
opinion only. <strong>The</strong> information is given as a guide only<br />
and Buyers should satisfy themselves with regard to<br />
this information as to its accuracy.
