Auction Results | Hollycombe House: The Collection of Tim and Virginia Hoare
On Tuesday 15 & Wednesday 16 June we saw fantastic results for our auction of 'Hollycombe House: The Collection of Tim and Virginia Hoare'. This was a Live Online auction with an auctioneer, offering clients the opportunity to leave commission bids, bid by telephone or bid live online via one of four internet bidding platforms. Competitive bidding from 29 countries, meant that the auction achieved a sell through rate of 93%, making 40% above pre-sale estimates, totalling £1.69 million (including Buyer's Premium).
Joe Robinson, Dreweatts Head of House Sales and Private Collections, says "The market has, for some time, been attracted to the work of Robert Kime - his ability to fuse colourful textiles, impressive rugs with great pieces of fine and decorative furniture has thrilled many people decorating their own houses. This sale offered an insight into his style and inspiration for creating a family home with colour and interest."
Jonathan Pratt, Dreweatts Managing Director, stated "Sales such as these bring with them great excitement and enormous opportunity. They afford clients the chance to see the interiors as they were designed, which fuels interest.
"Traditional areas of the market such as mahogany furniture and 19th century pictures are experiencing a renewed interest as today’s buyers opt for comfort, character and carbon neutral - this sale proves it. We are delighted with the result."
With competitive and enthusiastic bidding we saw key lots selling for triple their original estimates, if not more.
