Tiffany Mixed Metals Salt & Pepper Shakers Bring $4000.00 at Hatch Auction

The Two Day Antique Auction September 25 & 26, in Flat Rock, NC had over 1400 lots, grossing
over $250,000.00, it really had something for everyone. The event had over 329 registered
 bidders, 208 in-house and another 340 on LiveAuctioneers.com.  Absentee and phone
bidding participation was also strong.  

Mr. Hatch noted with the change of Ebay no longer doing “EbayLive” since the first of the year, on-line bidding sign up numbers have dropped about 70%, but those that do sign up thru LiveAuctioneers.com seem to be even more serious bidders. Out of the 340 who signed up through the online firm, 121 were successful.  21% of the auction sold on-line.                                                                                                    

The sale included lots of artwork with an oil by William E. Harris selling at $1300.00, while a pencil
signed Leroy Nieman lithograph brought only $200.00. Furniture remains at bargain prices with a
Period Chippendale Slant Front Desk selling at $800.00, a Period Chippendale mirror at $350.00,
set of 8 original Hitchcock chairs at $700.00, a North Carolina pine cupboard sold at $800.00, a back bar from a local barbershop circa 1915 sold at $600.00 and a mid-century dining set by Heywood
Wakefield sold at a low price of $450.00. The gallery was loaded with fine china and glassware
with china sets selling from $110.00 for a 67 piece Bavarian set to $750.00 for a 54 piece set of
Lenox “Autumn” pattern. A large collection of Victorian art glass syrup pitchers seemed to delight
the crowd, and ranged from $50.00 up to $450.00 An unusual 19^th century Meissen covered biscuit
box sold at $800.00. A bronze statue of a dog by 19^th century French artist F. Barbedienne seemed a
buy at only $600.00.

The gallery also gleamed with lots of fine silver, with many sets of sterling flatware including 94
pieces of “Chantilly” by Gorham bringing $1750.00, 60 pcs. of Gorham “King Edward” brought
$850.00, 79 pcs. of Stieff “Rose” at $1500.00, 81 pcs. of “Burgundy” by Reed & Barton sold for
$2750.00, 63 pcs. of Gorham “Buttercup” brought $1000.00, while 63 pcs. of “Strasbourg” by
the same maker sold at $1600.00.

The jewelry cases were also loaded to the brim this sale, highlighted by a Cartier Mans “Santos”
wristwatch, which though appraised at $6750.00, brought a reasonable $1100.00, and a Cartier
diamond dress clip sold at $500.00. A stunning star ruby and diamond pendant sold at $2000.00
and a dazzling Deco diamond bar pin brought $2750.00.

One of the surprising lots in the sale was a lot of two old violins from a local estate, though
estimated at $200 to $400.00, the pair sang out to a delighted bidder for $3100.00.

 Another interesting lot was an original silver gelatin print photographer by famous photographer Lawrence Schiller of Marilyn Monroe, nude, taken during filming of her lasted film and presented
to fellow photographer Tom Nebbia. It seemed a real deal at $600.00.

Mr. Hatch commented “that though attendance is strong, prices on mid-level antiques, furniture and collectible items remain low. Mr. Hatch was quoted as saying “If you loved the piece when it was
selling at $500.00, you should still love it and be bidding on it when it is now $250.00”, noting that
a lot of items are about half of what he was selling them for a couple years ago. “Now is the time
to add to your collection, start a collection, or simply decorate your homes”.         

    Celebrating his 30^th year in the auction business, Mr. Hatch sees a steady flow of items coming
into the gallery. “The real challenge in today’s market is to find buyers to absorb all the merchandise
at prices that are fair to the sellers and buyers alike. “A lot of merchandise comes from past customers
from 20 or 30 years ago that are now downsizing or “passing on to glory”, reminding us that we are all “temporary caretakers” Mr. Hatch is constantly marketing his auctions in various ways to help attract
new bidders, whether through appraisal fairs, lectures, courses, etc., he strives to help boost interest
in the field. “At this point in time, we that are seriously involved in the antique business must do all
we can to educate and help promote an industry which has slowed down drastically” He also
reminded us ‘The joy of collecting is still there, and now with prices down we should be attracting
a new group of buyers”.

One thing is for certain, Hatch Auctions has delighted buyers for over 30 years, and will continue to
do so with the next auction scheduled November 20^th and 21^st, the Annual Asian & Oriental Auction
at the gallery in Flat Rock, North Carolina.

The auction is over, and it was a great success.
Attendance was excellent, both at the auction
house and online through Live Auctioneers,
thank you very much for your interest and support.
