Under the hammer: a Gothic side table with unpolished white fossil stone from Hanham Court 
In my work details, I often receive upcoming antiques and masterpiece auction from all over the world. Last week, week, directory to log mat on my E-mail. In most cases, the extent to which the directory makes me very interested content depends on and on my work, or to my collection. But there is one form of auction, grabbed my whole attention - set sales.
A collection of auction sales in this way which the effects years of accumulation of individuals, couples, or generation family auction. Sales of reasons can choose death, mobile home, make the space, or increase your income. Although venues be auction house, and many of the atmospheric collect sales are family are artistic and cultural accumulated and display. In this case, they are known as house sales.
The appeal of many collection/house sales often resides in the cult of celebrity. In recent decades, there has been enormous interest in the sales of property and effects of Cecil Beaton, Rudolph Nureyev and Yves Saint Laurent. That interest goes way beyond fame and into personal style, and how that has influenced or rubbed off on the forms of art and artefact acquired. In the case of Yves Saint Laurent, bidders most certainly bought into the notion that style begets style, paying about £330 million for the collection accumulated by him.
