Welcome to Smalls Auctions Sale 250. In this Sale we have on offer some bespoke Jewellery pieces including an Indian Tiger Brooch in 17ct Yellow Gold featuring a Tooth shaped in Green Jade and a Majestic Lions Head Ring in 18ct Yellow Gold with Diamond-set Eyes. They are not for everyone, but they are far from the standard fare offered by Jewellery shops and are sure to attract public attention for the wearer. If you like to be the centre of attention then these are definitely for you. Perhaps pair your new Ring or Brooch with a Leopard Pelt Hat from the 1940’s by Sydney Society Furrier Leon Paule. If you wear this item down the street you are likely to attract some unwanted attention for other reasons, but it still stands as a tribute to Women’s Fashion in the 1940’s. Perhaps the highlight of the Sale is a selection of Art Works by some of Australia’s finest War Artists. There are Pen Sketches by the incomparable Russel Drysdale and the talented Theodore Penleigh Boyd as well as a study in Oil on Board by the great World War I artist George Washington Lambert whose works feature predominantly in the Australian War Memorial. All capture the spirit of conflict and loss in the two Great Wars that shook up the World in the 20th Century. In the Modern Coin section there are tribute coins for ‘The Lord of the Rings’ as well as a selection of Australian RAM Rolls which have proven quite popular in recent sales. It is certainly an eclectic offering of collectables, and we hope you find something of interest for you in the three hundred lots on offer. Smalls Auctions
