Great news for the antique and decorative arts community in New Zealand this month. Newly re-vamped auction house Mossgreen-Webb's are holding their first antique auction since the unpopular decision by previous owners Mowbray Collectables to scrap the department. This is an important move for the the industry in Auckland. I love Cordy's, but its simply too small to accommodate the quantity of antiques in the market. The purpose built showroom at Mossgreen-Webb's as well as internet focussed auctions are an ideal showcase for antiques that will appeal to both dealers and buyers.
Webb's veteran and auction dynamo James Hogan helms the department and has put together a well rounded offering of quality antiques and items of historical or design interest. Hot on its heels is artist Judy Darragh's Pop Culture collection sale in October and broadcaster Michael Woolf's collection of "Weird & Wonderful" in November. The Antique sale kicks off Wednesday 21st 6.30pm.
It was good to see a huge crowd enjoying the Tim and Sherrah Francis art collection at Art & Object this weekend. There is still time to check it out in person, highly recommended.
