Antiquities & Ethnographica
Following on from our successful 2021 specialist one-off auction of art and antiquities from around the world, we now have a dedicated Antiquities & Ethnographica section within our September Fine Art & Antiques auctions.
This fascinating genre includes pieces from the Classical World, as well as a wealth of art and antiques from Egypt, Africa, Asia and Oceania, ranging from 1000BC to the mid-20th century.
Previous highlights include this circa 600 BCE cast bronze figure of the Egyptian Goddess Neith modelled in standing pose wearing the Red Crown of Lower Egypt which sold for £2,200 and this circa 300-400 BCE Celtic sandstone head, which made £1,050
Entries are invited all year round, with consignments closing in mid-August.

A Timely Collection
Our 23rd June Fine Art & Antiques auction includes an impressive selection of over fifty clocks, ranging from elaborate 17th century lantern clocks to Regency bracket clocks and beautifully lacquered longcases. As befits an auction house in Bury St Edmunds with its rich history of watch and clockmaking, there are several examples by local makers.
A Fruitful Pair of Artists
Royal Worcester has long been associated with some of the finest hand-painted porcelain produced in Britain, and among its respected twentieth-century artists were Harry Ayrton and John Freeman.
Our 23rd June Fine Art & Antiques auction includes a collection of cabinet plates showcasing the skills of both artists.
The Ernie Warren Collection
We are pleased, if also sad, to announce The Ernie Warren Collection auction to be held off-site at the family home. A long-time friend and client of Lacy Scott & Knight, Ernie amassed an amazing collection of vintage cars, automobilia, live steam and static engines over the course of his life.
