The opening session presents a curated selection of ancient art and antiquities from Ancient Egyptian, Greek, Roman, Byzantine, Western Asiatic, and Near Eastern cultures, offering a strong range of museum-quality historical artefacts.
The catalogue features ancient sculpture, classical bronzes, engraved gemstones, jewellery, ritual objects, metalwork, pottery, and everyday artefacts, alongside prehistoric tools, Viking and Saxon antiquities, Germanic objects, arms and armour, Medieval and Post-Medieval works, and a small group of natural history specimens.
Lots are clearly described with attention to historical context, condition, and provenance where available, making the sale suitable for both private collectors and institutions.
