“The influence he exerted upon Minneapolis, and, through it, upon the entire Northwest, by the exercise of his art and
the faithful persistent performance of his true craftsmanship cannot be overestimated. He was an apostle of beauty...”
– John Scott Bradstreet obituary, The Bellman, August 15, 1914, p. 216
Just as Louis C. Tiffany and Gustav Stickley were titans of Art & Crafts design in the Northeast, so was John Scott
Bradstreet in the Midwest. Born and raised in Massachusetts, he moved to Minneapolis in 1872 and opened his own
self-named furniture company with Edmund J. Phelps in 1878. The rapidly growing city provided a fertile market for
savvy designers like Bradstreet. He built a reputation reproducing Modern Gothic, Queen Anne, and Aesthetic Movement
furniture, catering to fashionable tastes across the United States. By 1900 he had begun designing what would define
his legacy: the Crafthouse.
In 1903 he purchased the property at 327 South Seventh Street to fulfill his vision. Originally conceived as an Italian
villa, Bradstreet redesigned the property as an Oriental retreat influenced by his travels: England, Italy, Spain, and
especially Japan. It opened for business in January 1904 with the sole purpose of hand-crafting fine home furnishings.
The Crafthouse’s extensive gardens were complete with a central pool full of white lilies and pink and purple lotuses –
perhaps the inspiration for Lot 434’s elegant decoration. At its height in 1910, Bradstreet had over eighty craftsmen in his
employ, many of them using techniques that he had brought back from his journeys, such as jin-di-sugi (lot 435).
A believer in the finest of esoteric aesthetics and taste, Bradstreet successfully combined Arts & Crafts precepts with
Aesthetic Movement and Japanese design. The care and attention he lavished on every aspect of a project is manifest in
the two lots presented here.

JOHN SCOTT BRADSTREET (1845 - 1914)
MINNEAPOLIS CRAFTHOUSE
Jin-di-sugi frame, Minneapolis, MN, 1904-14
Carved and painted cypress, decorative pierced brass rondel
Unmarked
31 3/4” x 24”
Bradstreet’s jin-di-sugi process was inspired by jindai-sugi,
“cedar of God’s age” panels that he had seen at Japanese
temples. Crafted from cedar trees that had been submerged
in water and mud for centuries, these exposed the raised
hard grain which artisans then utilized for carving intricate
designs. After much trial and error, Bradstreet was able to
reproduce the effect, which Louis Tiffany praised as the
most unique and artistic wood treatment he had ever seen.
It involved scorching cypress wood, then wire-brushing it to
reveal the raised hard fiber grain, followed by washing and
waxing, and then carving, painting, and/or staining it as the
artisan desired.

month of the total purchase price.
5. Payment, Collection, and Shipping
Responsibilities of Buyer
Buyer Obligations: On the fall of the auctioneer’s
hammer, title to the property immediately
transfers to the successful bidder who, in turn,
becomes the buyer of the Property. The buyer
immediately assumes full risk and responsibility
for the purchased Property, including all costs and
expenses of handling, shipping, insurance, taxes,
export, and otherwise, and is liable for the full
purchase price, plus the buyer’s premium, applicable
taxes, and any other associated expenses.
Collection of Property and Storage Charges:
The buyer will pay for the purchased Property
immediately and remove it from the premises of the
Auction House within fourteen (14) days of the sale.
We are not responsible for any damage or loss on
property purchased but not removed from premises.
If the purchased Property is not removed within
thirty (30) days of the sale, the buyer will thereafter
be assessed a $10 per lot storage charge per day.
The Auction House may, at its discretion, remove
the purchased Property to public storage at the
buyer’s risk and expense. All associated charges will
be added to the total invoice and must be paid in
full before the Property will be released.
Those who choose to pick up their property from
the Auction House following the sale must call
24 hours in advance to arrange pick-up. Regular
hours for pick up are Monday – Friday, from 9:00
a.m. – 11:30 a.m. and from 1:30 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Please bring your own packing materials. The
Auction House is closed on Federal holidays and on
Mondays following full auction weekends. Weekend
pick-ups are made by special arrangement and/or
by appointment only. Note: New Jersey sales tax of
7% must be added to your invoice when picking up
merchandise unless you have a valid resale number
on file.
The buyer is responsible for the shipment of
all purchased property. We will work with any
shipper of your choosing. If you have any shipping
preference for any reason, please make sure your
shipper carries insurance. We are not responsible
for any damage or loss that occurs while your
objects are in another’s care. We will also not be
responsible for any damage or loss that occurs
if you choose a shipping method that we have
advised against and we will require a waiver from
view all updated condition reports | ragoarts.com
you acknowledging this.
As a convenience to the buyer, the Auction House
will, if requested, give your property to a third party
shipper. This company will pack and ship or arrange
shipment for you via UPS, FedEx or other carrier,
fully insured, for a fee payable in advance by credit
card. Shipments are made within a few days after
payment has been received.
All international customs, duties, and other tariffs
are the responsibility of the Buyer. The Auction
House and all third party shippers will declare the
selling price as the value in all cases.
Shipping larger items: Larger items are objects
such as furniture, andirons, floor vases, or any other
item whose safe packing will exceed the limits of
common carriers. The Auction House can arrange
delivery by freight almost anywhere in the United
States, fully insured, for a fee. The delivery of large,
heavy, or expensive objects is not an inexpensive
proposition and we urge you to consider this before
bidding.
Firearms: Rago sells only antique firearms as
defined by the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and
Firearms. Due to New Jersey firearms regulations,
all handguns, pistols, and revolvers will only be
shipped via Federal Express and will only be
delivered to a person who holds a Federal Firearms
License or a Curios and Relics License. Handguns,
pistols, and revolvers can only be picked up at
Auction House by a person who holds a Federal
Firearms License or the proper New Jersey handgun
permits, which must be shown and logged. There
are no exceptions. No firearms will be sold or
shipped internationally.
Property purchased and left at the auction house
for 90 days will be sold or donated for you.
6. Buyer Default
Remedies: If any of the Terms of Sale are not fully
complied with by the buyer, the buyer will be in
default without need of notice by the Auction
House. The buyer shall be liable to the Auction
House and the consignor for the total purchase
price, including all premiums, charges, and expenses
specified in the Terms of Sale. Interest shall accrue
at the rate of 18% per annum commencing with the
date of the auction. In addition to other remedies
available to the Auction House by law, the Auction
House may, at its option, a) cancel the sale of the
lot(s) on which the buyer defaulted and of any
other lots sold to the defaulting buyer at the same
or any other auction(s) and retain as liquidated
damages all payments made by the buyer, b) resell
the purchased Property, whether at public auction
or private sale, or c) pursue any combination of
a) and b) above. In event of default, the buyer
will be responsible to the Auction House and the
consignor for any deficiency, any and all costs and
expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees,
collection fees and expenses, late charges, and
other damages. The Auction House may, at its
discretion, apply any proceeds of sale otherwise
due to the buyer or monies of the buyer in the
Auction House’s possession to reduce or satisfy the
buyer’s obligations.
Security Interest: As security for full payment to the
Auction House and the consignor of all amounts
due, the buyer grants the Auction House the
right to retain a security interest in the Property
purchased at auction and in any other property or
money of buyer in the Auction House’s possession
or coming the Auction House’s possession
(collectively, ’collateral’). The Auction House shall
have the rights of a secured creditor as provided by
the Uniform Commercial Code and other applicable
law. Such security interest in the Property or other
collateral will cease when the Property is physically
delivered to the buyer or the buyer’s agent.
7. Warranties and Guarantees
All items are served “As-Is, Where-Is,” except
as expressly stated otherwise in the following
paragraph:
All information in the catalogue concerning
authenticity is guaranteed for a period of thirty
(30) days from the date of sale. In that time, prior to
payment to the consignor of the work, the Auction
House will allow the buyer to submit, at his own
expense, an opinion in writing from a recognized
expert, pre-approved by the Auction House and
the purchaser, regarding authenticity. In the event
the work is judged inauthentic by the expert, the
work may be returned in the same condition as
at time of sale and the buyer’s full purchase price
will be refunded. Refunds shall not include costs
of transportation, insurance, or other expenses
that may have been incurred by the buyer. It is the
buyer’s responsibility to make payment in a timely
fashion such that the property can be released and
inspected within this thirty (30) day time frame.
Should the buyer not do so, or should the buyer
request the auction house to delay shipment,
should he give an incorrect shipping address, or be
unavailable to receive shipment, the thirty (30) day
warranty shall still apply. If the Auction House has
paid the consignor the amounts due consignor as a
result of the sale, the Auction House will (i) refund
to the buyer the amount of the buyer’s premium
and applicable taxes received from the buyer, and
(ii) make written demand upon the consignor for
the payment of the balance of the purchase price.
If the consignor fails to honor the written demand
for a refund of the balance of the purchase price,
the Auction House will furnish buyer the name
and address of the consignor, and assign to buyer
all of the Auction House’s rights for the return of
the balance of the purchase price of the affected
lot. Upon this disclosure and assignment, the
Auction House will have no further liability to buyer
or responsibility to pursue the buyer’s claim. The
Auction House will extend reasonable cooperation
to buyer, provided that such cooperation does
not require out-of-pocket expenditures by the
Auction House. This limited right of rescission is
available only to the original buyer and may not be
relied upon by any heir, agent, transferee, assign,
or other third party or assigned to any subsequent
transferee of the Property which gives rise to the
claim.
This Warranty does not cover any description that
states there is a conflict of specialist opinion; any
description that states (or is bracketed in a section
described as) “as-is“ or “not guaranteed.”
This Warranty does not cover any typographical
errors. This Warranty does not cover wear on
furniture. This Warranty does not cover flakes,
surface scratches, or manufacturing flaws in glass
or ceramics.
The description of clocks and lighting devices,
whether in catalogues or condition reports, may
be incomplete and not identify every mechanical
replacement, repair, or defect. The absence of
reference to the condition of a clock or lighting
device does not imply it to be in working condition
or without defects, repairs, restorations, or
replacement parts.
The description of jewelry, whether in catalogues,
condition reports, or any other form, is rendered
as opinion, including, but not limited to, specialist
opinion as to authenticity, the enhancement or
treatment of gemstones, the weight of gemstones,

the country of origin, the authorship or origin
(manufacture) of an item, its period (or c.) or the
authenticity of its marks.
No warranty is made that any watch is in working
condition or without defects, restorations, or
working parts.
Buyers are advised to check watch works prior to
auction.
All measurements are approximate.
This disclaimer of liability on our part applies
whether the information is included in the
catalogue, advertisements, announcements, or
communicated through our representatives, bills of
sale, or elsewhere, and whether written or oral.
No Warranty of Reproduction: Neither the
consignor nor we make any warranty or
representation, express or implied, as to whether
a buyer will acquire any reproduction rights,
copyrights or other intellectual property rights in, or
with respect to, the Property.
The Auction House makes no warranties, express
or implied, as to the merchantability or fitness for
purpose except as otherwise expressly stated in
these Terms of Sale.
8. Qualifying to Bid
As a security measure for our consignors and our
company, all bidders must establish credit. You will
be asked to furnish identification and a valid credit
card number, credit references and/or (for absentee,
phone and online bidders) an initial deposit in the
form of a pre-authorization hold equal to 10% of the
low estimate of the total number of lots on which
you are bidding. First time and international buyers
bidding on Asian lots with a total low estimate of
$5,000 or greater will be asked to a) furnish an
initial deposit in the form of a pre-authorization
hold equal to 30% and b) grant the Auction House
the right to charge your credit card 30% of the
selling price on the day of sale. If you are acting as
another’s agent or principal, we may request a letter
of authorization. If you are successful and do not
remit payment as specified, the amount owed will
be charged to your credit card together with such
charges set forth in these terms of sale. If you have
any questions, contact Eliane Talec, ext. 118.
Bidding Numbers: All bidders must register and
receive a bidding number from the Auction House
prior to bidding at the auction.
9. Bidding Increments
All unreserved bidding starts at 50% of the low
estimate unless there are two or more competing
absentee bids in excess of this figure. The
auctioneer has the sole and exclusive power,
discretion, and authority to regulate the bidding
and its increments.
Increments
• $10 until $100 is reached
• $25 until $500 is reached
• $50 until $1,000 is reached
• $100 until $3,000 is reached
• $250 until $5,000 is reached
• $500 until $10,000 is reached
• $1,000 until $30,000 is reached
• $2,500 until $50,000 is reached
• $5,000 until $100,000 is reached
• $10,000 over $100,000
10. Absentee Bids
Absentee bids are requested by no later than
6:00 p.m. on the business day before the auction.
We accept absentee bids by phone, by mail, in
person, or by fax. Absentee bidders are emailed
bid confirmations – If you do not receive a
bid confirmation by the afternoon prior to the
auction, please call us. When you do receive a bid
confirmation, please double check for accuracy.
All absentee bidding is handled as though you are
in attendance. We buy all designated lots for you
one bidding increment above where competition
stops. Please check and comply with these
increments. In case of failure to comply, we will
reduce each off-increment bid to the next lower
figure.
“Plus” bids: Because of our structured bidding
increments, it is more likely that several people will
leave identical bids. Since an earlier bid left with
the auction house wins in the event of a tie, a later
bid with an added “plus” bid to the next increment
would win the piece.
Absentee bids left with third party online bidding
platforms are sent to the auction house as the lot
comes up for auction and not before. There is no
time advantage to absentee bids left with third
party online bidding platforms.
All absentee bidder names and bids are held in
strictest confidence, disclosed only in the event of
a question after the sale.
Absentee bidding is a convenience offered to our
customers and, while we will make every effort to
execute your instructions, the Auction House is
not liable or responsible for any errors or failure
to do so. If you place absentee bids with the
Auction House, then choose to attend in person,
bid by phone or any other means, it is solely your
responsibility to cancel any or all absentee bids
prior to the start of the auction.
11. Telephone Bids
Rago guarantees you a line and a phone agent for
bidding until 4 PM on the day prior to an auction.
After that time, we will gladly accept your absentee
bids, even during the auction (up to 30 minutes
before a lot goes on the block). Changes to bid
lists left with us prior to the deadline will always
be accommodated as best we can, as will follow-up
phone bids for those who attend/must leave the
auction and other exceptional cases.
If you need condition reports, please request and
review them prior to reserving phone lines.
Telephone bidders are emailed bid confirmations
– If you do not receive a bid confirmation by the
afternoon prior to the auction, please call us. When
you do receive a bid confirmation, please double
check for accuracy.
We can call you at two phone numbers ONLY during
the auction. If you are unsure of where you or your
agent will be during the sale, we recommend you
leave absentee bids.
Please do not change your phone number after
your phone lines have been confirmed; if you do,
the Auction House will not be responsible for any
breakdown in communications. Overseas phone
numbers only will be confirmed the day before the
auction.
We do not have the capacity to assign phone
agents to clients who want to listen only or who will
not bid the minimum selling price. Therefore, if you
bid by phone, you must be willing to open bidding
and bid to within 2/3 of the low estimate should
the bidding go that far. You may, however, leave
absentee bids for any amount.
Bids are placed on the telephone at the discretion
of the Auction House and at the caller’s risk.
Telephone bidding is a convenience offered to our
customers and, while we will make every effort to
execute your instructions, the Auction House is
not liable or responsible for any errors or failure to
do so.
If you place absentee bids with the Auction House
or Live Auctioneers and also bid in person, by phone
or any other means, it is solely your responsibility
to cancel any or all absentee bids prior to the start
of the auction. If you do not or cannot, regardless
of reason, you will be held responsible for the
property’s purchase.
15. Estimates
The estimates provided in this catalogue are our
opinion of the price that a willing buyer would
pay for the property at auction, based, where
possible, on prices paid for comparable items sold
in the past. They are neither a representation nor
a prediction of the actual selling price that will
be realized at auction, post-auction sale, or upon
resale, which may be substantially different from
these estimates. We shall not be liable in any way
for such a difference.
16. Withdrawal of Property from Sale
The Auction House reserves the right to withdraw
property from the sale for any reason and with no
liability whatsoever for such withdrawal.
12. Internet Bids
The Auction House has also engaged the services
of third party online bidding platforms called
Bidsquare and Live Auctioneers. Please proceed
to these sites for all necessary information on how
to bid and buy online using this system. The user
of Bidsquare and/or Live Auctioneers indemnifies
and holds the Auction House and its consignors
harmless against any claim arising out of or
resulting from your use of the Bidsquare and/or Live
Auctioneers sites, including all losses, damages,
liabilities, and all fees (including attorney’s fees),
costs, and expenses incurred in connection with
any claim. Under no circumstances, including, but
not limited to, negligence, shall the Auction House
and its consignors be liable for lost profits or any
special, incidental, or consequential damages that
result from the use of, or the inability to use, this
site.
If you place absentee bids with the Auction House
and/or a third party site and also bid in person,
by phone or any other means, it is solely your
responsibility to cancel these absentee bids prior
to the start of the auction. If you do not or cannot,
regardless of reason, you will be held responsible for
the property’s purchase.
Absentee bids left with third party online bidding
platforms are released to the Auction House when
a lot comes up for sale. The Auction House cannot
distinguish these from bids made in real time. They
have no timed advantage.
13. Condition Reports
Condition reports are rendered as specialist
opinion by the staff of the Auction House and/or
independent consultants and not as statements of
fact. We do not guarantee the content of written or
verbal condition reports.
Up-to-date condition reports can be accessed
online at ragoarts.com. If you would like additional
information, please call (609) 397-9374, fax
condition report requests to (609) 397-9377 or
e-mail them to [email protected]. Our specialists
will respond to requests as quickly as possible.
Please be patient. We get many requests and we
make every effort to respond to all of them in a
timely fashion. The Auction House is not liable or
responsible for any errors or failure to do so.
14. Reserves
A reserve is the confidential minimum price
established by the Auction House and the
consignor. The reserve will never exceed the low
estimate of the lot. The Auction House prohibits
consignors from bidding on their own property, but
may implement the reserve by bidding on behalf of
the consignor at the auction up to the reserve.
217
17. Rescission by Buyer
All items are served “As-Is, Where-Is,” except as
expressly stated otherwise in Paragraph 7. Buyer
acknowledges and expressly agrees that the
provisions of this Paragraph state the sole and
exclusive remedy available to a buyer in the event
of non-conformity in Property purchased. The
buyer understands and agrees that the exclusive
remedy for any breach of the warranty shall be a
rescission of the sale and a refund of the original
purchase price (bid plus buyer’s premium), as well
as any applicable taxes paid. Neither the Auction
House nor its Consignor shall be liable for damages
beyond the remedy expressly provided for herein,
such as, but not limited to, direct, indirect, special,
incidental, punitive, or consequential, including
the loss of profit or revenue, cost of obtaining
alternative property, claims of customers of the
buyer or otherwise.
18. Rescission by the Auction House
In the event the Auction House receives notice
of an adverse claim with respect to purchased
Property, the Auction House shall have the right
(but not the obligation), in its sole and absolute
discretion, to rescind the sale to the buyer, upon
written notice to the buyer. Upon such notice, the
buyer will promptly return the purchased property
to the Auction House’s premises in the same
condition as when purchased.
The Auction House will then promptly refund the
purchase price, including the buyer’s premium
and applicable taxes paid. Buyer will have no
further recourse against the Auction House or
the consignor, and the Auction House and the
consignor shall not be liable for any damages of any
nature suffered by the buyer.
19. Governing Law and Forum for Disputes
The laws of New Jersey shall govern the auctions
of the Auction House. Any disputes that may arise
in connection with the auction and/or any auction
purchase, and all of the terms and conditions
set forth herein above, shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with New Jersey law.
Anyone who participates in the auction and/or
makes auction purchases agrees to submit to the
jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New Jersey
with respect to any dispute arising in connection
with the auction and/or any auction purchases. In
the event that the Auction House needs to bring
an action to enforce the terms and conditions
herein and/or to collect any sum due and owing to
it the Auction House shall be entitled in addition
to collect its reasonable attorney’s fees, collection
agency fees, and cost of suit.

20. Limitations of Liability
The Auction House acts only as the agent for the
consignor and in no event will be liable for any
breach or default by the consignor.
21. Severability and Waiver
If any provision of portion of these Terms of Sale
shall be deemed unlawful, void, or unenforceable
under applicable law, that provision or portion
shall be stricken and severed from the remaining
provisions, which shall remain in full force and
effect. Failure to enforce any of the provisions in
these Terms of Sale shall not be deemed a waiver
of the right to enforce any other provisions of these
Terms of Sale.
22. No Assignment
Unless the Auction House consents in writing,
buyers may not assign their rights or any of their
obligations related to an auction or other sale by
the Auction House.
23. No Modifications
These Terms of Sale may not be changed unless the
Auction House and buyer have agreed to do so in a
written agreement signed by both parties.
bids and refuse to ship.
25. Firearms
Rago sells only antique firearms as defined by the
U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. All
Firearms will be sold in accordance with State of
New Jersey and Federal firearms laws and any
relevant State of New Jersey and Federal laws. It
is the sole responsibility of buyers to familiarize
themselves with their local laws and requirements
for the possession of firearms; to identify and
obtain any necessary license or permit prior to
bidding; and to abide by all Federal, State and local
laws and requirements. The Auction House and the
Consignor make no representations or warranties
as to whether any lot is or is not subject to such
restrictions and will have no responsibility with
regard to these matters. Rago sells only antique
firearms as defined by the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol,
Tobacco and Firearms. Due to New Jersey firearms
regulations, all handguns, pistols, and revolvers will
only be shipped via Federal Express and will only be
delivered to a person who holds a Federal Firearms
License or a Curios and Relics License. Handguns,
pistols, and revolvers can only be picked up at
Auction House by a person who holds a Federal
Firearms License or the proper New Jersey handgun
permits, which must be shown and logged. There
are no exceptions. No firearms will be sold or
shipped internationally.
24. Export or Import - Endangered/Threatened/
Prohibited Species
The State of New Jersey prohibits the import,
sale, purchase, barter, or possession with intent
to sell of any ivory, ivory product, rhinoceros
horn, or rhinoceros horn product with exceptions
that are irrelevant to commercial sale. As used
in this act “Ivory” means tooth or tusk from any
animal, including, but not limited to an elephant,
hippopotamus, mammoth, narwhal, walrus, or
whale, or any piece thereof, whether raw ivory
or worked ivory, or made into, or part of, an ivory
product. As concerns worked products made
of species legal to sell under current Federal
guidelines, it is the sole responsibility of buyers
to familiarize themselves with International and
U.S. state laws or requirements for import and
export; to identify and obtain any necessary export,
import, endangered species or other permit prior
to bidding; and to abide by International and U.S.
laws and requirements. The Auction House and the
Consignor make no representations or warranties
as to whether any lot is or is not subject to export
or import restrictions or any embargoes and will
have no responsibility with regard to these matters.
a) International: Several countries do not allow
the importation of lots containing materials made
from endangered species. This includes, but is not
limited to coral and tortoiseshell. An export license
may be required for the export of certain materials,
as well. b) State of California: California Penal Code
sections 653o - 653r make it illegal to import into
California for commercial purposes, to possess with
intent to sell, or to sell within the state, the dead
body, or any part or product thereof, of any polar
bear, leopard, ocelot, tiger, cheetah, jaguar, sable
antelope, wolf (Canis lupus), zebra, whale, cobra,
python, sea turtle, colobus monkey, kangaroo,
vicuna, sea otter, free-roaming feral horse, dolphin
or porpoise (Delphinidae), Spanish lynx, or elephant.
Starting in 2015, it will be unlawful to import into
this state for commercial purposes, to possess
with intent to sell, or to sell within the state, the
dead body, or any part or product thereof, of any
crocodile or alligator. Should a buyer in California
state an intent to sell the certain animal parts
named in California Penal Code sections 653o 653r, the Auction House reserves the right to reject
26. Miscellaneous
Private Sales: These Terms of Sale shall apply to
both auction and private sales of property.
Paragraph Headings: Paragraph and subheadings
are included in these Terms of Sale for ease of
reference and should not be used to interpret the
meaning of the substantive provisions.
Addendum to Terms of Sale: Jewelry
For centuries, natural gemstones have been
enhanced in a variety of ways, including heating,
oiling and other methods. These treatments
are accepted by the international jewelry and
gemstone trade. The Auction House makes no
representations or warranties, express or implied,
as to whether natural stones have been treated or
enhanced, whether specifically referenced or not.
All stones have been identified by standard
gemological field tests as the mounting permits
and the Auction House will make available to
prospective buyers any gemological certificates
in its possession. It will not always be feasible to
obtain a qualified lab report on every stone offered
through the Auction House. Buyers wishing to
have a grading or gemological report from an
independent recognized laboratory such as the
Gemological Institute of America, the European
Gemological Laboratories or the American
Gemological Institute may request one at their own
expense or hire an independent adviser of their
choosing.
Weights given are based solely on measurements
and known gemological formulae; they are
approximate, not exact. Weight may differ once
a stone is removed from its setting. Buyers are
advised to verify weight estimates prior to auction

Addendum to Terms of Sale: Coins and Currency
Grading is a not an exact science. It is a matter
of opinion as to condition and other attributes.
Because of this, grading can and will differ
among third party grading services (even
though consensus grading is employed by most),
independent experts, dealers, collectors and
auction houses, including our own. Due to the
subjectivity of coin and currency grading, a given
piece evaluated twice by the same expert may be
assigned a different grade each time. Opinion as
to the grading, condition or other attributes of any
property may have a material effect on value.
Therefore all coins and currency are served “As-Is,
Where-Is,” by the Auction House except as to
authenticity, as expressly stated in the Terms of
Sale. They are sold without any additional express
or implied warranty, including, but not limited
to, grade. This includes all coins and currency,
including, but not limited to, those:
