Authur Mathews Music Cabinet
Music cabinet from the Francis Marion
“Borax” Smith estate, circa 1896. Three panels, front left and right on the cabinet were
painted in oil on board by Arthur Mathews. Each image is of women in repose as if listening to the music being played on the adjacent piano. The accompanying image is a 1902 photograph of the music room of the Smith mansion where the music cabinet may be seen
obscured in part by the piano. The piece
includes a drop down front panel revealing
horizontal interior shelves for sheet music. A single drawer sits below the drop front
panel. It is decorated with twin cherubs
with dramatically exaggerated cabriolet legs
and gilded in gold leaf. The cabinet was
illustrated in the Oakland Museum Catalog,
The Art of Arthur and Lucia Mathews, 2006. Unsigned.

Lawson/Maybeck Library Table c.1915
This is a very rare example of furniture designed by
Bernard Maybeck for the Andrew Lawson House,
Berkeley, CA. The frame is four massive legs interlocked via eight keyed tenons with four stretchers
with a very thick top. A single pencil drawer is hung
from the top on sliding dovetails. The top itself is
nearly two inches thick solid quarter sawn white oak
with a simple ogee edge detail. It is stiffened with
four sliding cross braces dovetailed directly into the
top. The legs taper smoothly to Mackmurdo feet. The proportions are perfect from every perspective. The oversize timbers are carefully dimensioned to
harmonize into a powerful but calming composition. The out board dovetailed cross braces visibly balances the top and offers a precise and sophisticated
transition from the base. Condition report: The base has its original finish; the
top is refinished and re-glued. Table “8’s” were added
to prevent further damage. The drawer is original
with original brass drawer pulls. The entire table has
been cleaned and waxed

Forbes Chair
The Forbes chair, a.k.a. the Maybeck chair or the Swedenborgian Church chair was
the first American Arts & Crafts furniture design. Many historians have researched
and documented the history and origins of the chair and have included it prominently in their writings: Leslie Freudenheim, Building with Nature Kenneth Trapp, The Arts and Crafts
Movement in California, Living the Good Life
Wendy Kaplan, The Arts and Crafts Movement in Europe and America, Design for
the Modern World
Leslie Bowman, American Arts and Crafts, Virtue in Design. The wood species is Circassian Walnut and has been refinished. The wood grain of
the crest rail has a perfectly centered arch matched by yet another arch in the
grain of the second back rail. The legs have dramatic contrasting strips of dark
and light walnut wrapping around the leg as decorative ornamentation. The legs
taper from the seat height smoothly to the top of the Mackmurdo foot. The seat,
now lost, would have been local Tule rush from the Sacramento Delta and then
woven into a rush seat.

TERMS OF SALE
a. The Purchase of and Payment for Property
The sale of a lot shall be to the highest bidder as
determined by the auctioneer, in accord with these
Conditions of Sale. Title to the lot shall pass with
the fall of the Auctioneer’s hammer. Buyer shall pay
the Purchase price, as defined above, and such other
fees as may be due, in full, within seven (7) days of
the auction sale. Sale is not final and property will
not be released to Buyer until good funds for all
amounts due, are received by MA. Payment may be
made (i) in cash, (ii) by wire transfer (additional $15
42
fee), (iii) by money order or other guaranteed funds,
or (iv) by personal check (when buyer’s credit is
approved). No lot shall be transferred by Buyer to
another person until the sale is final. In the event of
partial payment for any lot or lots we shall apply
payments, in our discretion, to the lot or lots we
select. The Buyer grants MA a security interest in
the purchased Property, and we may retain as collateral any property purchased and any funds in our
possession, to secure a Buyer’s obligations to us, if
any. We retain the rights of a secured party under
the California Commercial Code. All fees, taxes, premiums or other sums due and not paid pursuant to
this paragraph shall bear interest at 1.5 % per month
from the 8th day following the sale to the date paid
in full.
b. Collection of Property
Upon transfer of title, Buyer assumes full responsibility, including risk of loss and damage, for the
Property. Purchased property shall be removed at
Buyer’s expense within fifteen (15) days after the
sale becomes final. Property not removed shall be
subject to a service fee of $50, and a storage fee, if
retained by MA, of 1% of the purchase price per
month. MA may also, in its sole discretion, elect to
place the Property in a public storage facility at the
Buyer’s sole risk, responsibility and expense.
c. Liability for delivery of property
If, for any reason whatsoever, we are unable to deliver the purchased Property to the Buyer, MA shall be
liable to the Buyer only for the Purchase price paid
by the Buyer and in no event shall we be liable for
incidental or consequential damages, including, but
not limited to, business interruption or loss of profit.
d. Available Shipping
As a service to the purchaser, MA may be able to
pack and ship items as set forth in the provisions for
shipping in the paragraph following the terms and
conditions of sale.
THE AUCTION PROCEDURE
a. Registration
Bidders must register in advance to bid at auction.
(a) If by mail or on the Internet please comply with,
sign and send back the requisite form or absentee
bid. (b) To telephone bid, Bidders must complete,
sign and fax a copy of the Telephone Bid Registration
Form, which is available only by calling MA.
Telephone lines are limited, and available on a firstcome, first-serve basis. Registration to bid by telephone must be completed by 5 p.m. the day prior to
the auction. (c) When intending to bid in person, pre
register at the desk and obtain a bidding paddle. The
auctioneer may refuse to recognize any person not
registered and not having a paddle number. MA
reserves the right at its sole discretion, to refuse
anyone the right to register and participate at an
auction.
b. Announcements
We may, at the commencement of, or during the
Auction, announce changes in or modifications to
the Conditions of Sale or descriptions of Property.
c. Absentee Bids
For a Buyer’s convenience, absentee bids will be
accepted, when properly executed and submitted in
a timely manner. However, we neither accept any
responsibility to an absentee bidder, nor any liability
whatsoever for a failure to execute the absentee bid
for any reason. In the event that identical multiple
absentee bids are the highest bids received for the
same lot then the earliest received of the competing
absentee bids shall prevail at that bid amount.
d. Auctioneer’s Discretion
The Auctioneer has the absolute discretion to 1)
pass a lot or withdraw it from sale at any time prior
to its actual sale; 2) refuse to recognize any bidder;
3) refuse to recognize any bid; 4) resolve any dispute
between bidders or resolve any doubtful bid by
deciding who is the successful bidder or nullifying
the auction of the lot and reoffering it for sale. The
Auctioneer’s decision is binding as to disputes arising at auction. If a dispute arises post sale, our
records of the sale shall be conclusive. Both the
Auctioneer and MA shall be without any liability
whatsoever resulting from the exercise of the discretion referred to herein.
e. Reserves
All Property is offered for sale subject to a Reserve
unless otherwise stated by us at time of sale. MA
may protect the Reserve by an initial bid or continued bidding on behalf of the consignor. Any bids by
MA staff after the Reserve is met shall be made only
on behalf or registered bidders. Neither the consignor nor an agent or representative of the consignor is allowed to bid on their own property.
DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES
Except for warranty of title, neither we nor the
Consignor make any warranties, guarantees or representation, express or implied, with respect to the
Property, including, but not necessarily limited to,
any implied warranty of “fitness for purpose” or
“merchantability.”
Any and all statements and descriptions in any catalogue or elsewhere by MA, relating to age, attribution, authenticity, size, genuineness, provenance, historical relevance or significance, physical condition,
importance, quality, quantity, rarity, period, culture,
source or origin, are presented as statements of
qualified opinion only.
MA’s disclaimer of liability covers information contained in catalogues, and all other printed material
published by us, including condition reports. Buyers
assume the responsibility to inspect the Property
and make their own decision as to the nature, quality and value of the Property.
Neither MA nor the Consignor make any warranty
or representation with regard to the existence of or
the transfer of intellectual property rights, except
and to such extent as may, from time to time, be
explicitly stated.
No employee of MA is authorized to nor shall make
any warranty or representation on MA’s behalf,
except as stated in the catalog or in any written
addendum.
ESTIMATES OF VALUE
All estimates of value as published in our Catalogues
or elsewhere are statements of qualified opinion as
to the range of the price a willing buyer might pay
for the Property at auction. The actual price paid at
auction or subsequently, may vary substantially from
the estimates. MA shall not be liable for any such
differential.
BUYER’S DEFAULT
If a Buyer fails to pay for purchased Property, or
otherwise does not comply with these Conditions
of Sale, the Buyer shall be in default. In addition to
all remedies available in law, to MA and to the
Consignor, the Buyer shall be liable for the entire
Purchase price. Additionally, at our option, we may
either cancel the sale and retain all payments made
by Buyer as well as retain any and all Property of
Buyer in our possession as security against payment
of the sums in default, or we may re-offer the
Property for sale, at auction or privately, without
reserve. Buyer shall be liable to us and the
Consignor for the additional fees, commissions and
costs on both sales (including handling, storage and
court costs and attorney’s fees) resulting from the
cancellation or resale of the Property and in the
event of resale, any deficiency which may result.
RESCISSION
The sole and exclusive remedy, available only to the
original buyer, is the limited right of rescission set
forth herein. MA will cancel the sale of Property if
the original buyer establishes to our satisfaction that
there has been a breach of the Consignor’s warranty of title, or that the identification of Authorship*
of the Property as set forth in Bold Type Heading is
not substantially correct, based on a fair reading of
the Catalogue (as may be amended by posted or
announced changes.) IN ALL INSTANCES, YOU
MUST GIVE WRITTEN NOTICE TO US WITHIN
30 DAYS OF THE SALE OF THE PROPERTY,
SETTING FORTH THE BASIS FOR YOUR CLAIM
AND, AT YOUR SOLE EXPENSE AND RISK,
RETURN THE PROPERTY IN QUESTION TO MA
WITHIN SEVEN (7) DAYS AFTER NOTICE IS
GIVEN AND IN THE SAME CONDITION AS
WHEN SOLD. Upon review of the claim and the
property, if we are satisfied with the bases for your
claim and the property is in the same condition it
was in when sold, MA will rescind the sale and
return to you the Purchase price, unless we have
already remitted funds to the Consignor. In that
event, and at MA’s sole discretion, MA shall either
pay you as provided above, or shall pay you only
that portion of the Purchase price retained by us
(the Seller’s commission, the buyer’s premium and
any sales taxes collected) and on your behalf make
demand on the Consignor for the balance and upon
receipt of the funds remit same to you. Should the
Consignor refuse to return the funds to you or to
MA, we shall disclose the Consignor’s identity and
assign to you any and all rights MA may have against
the Consignor. Any and all liability MA may have as
agent for the Consignor shall thereupon terminate.
BUYER EXPRESSLY UNDERSTANDS AND AGREES
THAT MA SHALL HAVE NO OTHER LIABILITY
TO THE BUYER EXCEPT FOR THE RETURN OF
THE PURCHASE PRICE AND THAT IN NO EVENT
SHALL MA BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES,
INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR
COMPENSATORY DAMAGES OR LOSS OF
PROFIT OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY.
*Authorship refers to the maker or creator of the
Property, and the period, social culture, and origin of
the Property as stated in the Bold Type Heading for
a given lot in our catalogue. It does not refer to the
descriptions which may be contained in the information below the Bold Type Heading.
MISCELLANEOUS
a. Modification: No modification or amendment of
the Conditions of Sale shall bind MA unless contained in a writing signed by MA, except as may be
posted or published as noted above or verbally
announced at time of sale.
b. Severability: If, for any reason, any part of the
Conditions of Sale is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining portion shall be valid and
enforceable.
c. Successors and Assigns: The Conditions of Sale shall
be binding on all the heirs and assigns of the Buyers
and bidders and inure to the benefit of MA’s successors and assigns.
d. Jurisdiction, Venue, Choice of Law: Dispute resolution
shall occur in Alameda County, California, USA. The
provisions of the Conditions of Sale will be construed and disputes determined by application of
California Law, without regard to conflicts of law.
e. Notice, Service of Process: Buyers agree to accept all
notices and service of process relating to dispute
resolution at the address provided by Buyer on any
registration forms required to be executed as a condition of bidding in our auction.
f. Dispute Resolution: All disputes and claims arising
out of or relating to events and actions covered
herein, brought by or against us, shall be resolved by
mediation or binding arbitration in accord with the
procedures set forth below. This provision does not
apply to claims brought by the Buyer directly against
the Consignor, including, but not limited to any
action brought pursuant to the rescission provisions
noted above
OPTIONAL PROVISIONS
Shipping, insurance packaging and handling of purchased lots is at the risk and expense of the purchaser. As a service to the purchaser, MA may ship
appropriate items solely via United Parcel Service,
(UPS) Ground. MA will not ship by any other method including USPS, and property requiring freight
shipment. MA will, in no event insure the property
whether or not packaged and shipped by MA. MA
shall not, under any circumstances, be liable for the
loss, theft or damage to property, including, but not
limited to selection of shipper, the acts or omissions
of any shipper or the acts or omissions occurring in
packing for shipment. It is the purchaser’s responsibility to obtain a shipping quote for any lot being
offered, from an outside shipper, prior to the auction date. (As a courtesy, MA may provide quotes
for items to be shipped via UPS). Post sale determination of shipping costs does not constitute grounds
for cancellation of any purchase made at auction.
Purchasers are advised that large and fragile items
can be expensive and that MA will ship no property
without first obtaining consent from the purchaser
and only after packing and shipping costs have been
disclosed by MA. When MA is to pack and ship, MA
will provide to the bidder with a quote for cost of
packing and handling and the UPS fee. The Purchaser
is responsible for any insurance of the shipment.
Shipment will not be made until both all sums due
MA including the shipping and handling fees as quoted, and written confirmation is received that insurance has been waived or has been obtained by purchaser. Shipment may take up to 21 days after payment is received.
MEDIATION AND ARBITRATION

JEWELRY SOLD AT MICHAAN’S AUCTIONS:
It is the responsibility of the bidder to examine
carefully any item(s) of potential interest.
For all the jewelry sold here at Michaan’s Auctions
the following applies:
All gemstone weights are approximate.
We are aware of the many types of treatments and/
or enhancements used today on diamonds and colored stones. The purpose is to improve their
appearance i.e. color and/or clarity. Techniques like
heat treatments, color diffusion, irradiated, HTHP,
oiling, resin, bleaching, dying and impregnation are
just a few techniques known today. Some treatments
combined. Some treatments are not detectable using
43
standard gemological procedures. Not all treatments
are permanent. Prospective buyers are therefore
reminded that unless otherwise noted in the
description(s), it must be assumed that some form
of enhancement may have been used.
Regarding laboratories certification: The certifications mentioned in the descriptions only reflect the
opinions of the laboratory. From one laboratory to
another they do differ on the degrees of grading
and/or treatments. And if a stone has a certificate
from a laboratory we cannot guarantee this grading.
Watches must be examined carefully. Although we
do attempt to mention in our descriptions significant defects, needed repairs, absent stones and the
like, we do not guarantee the accuracy or operation
of any watch function.
Detailed condition reports are available for most
pieces. These reports contain more information than
the catalog descriptions. Images shown may appear
smaller or larger than actual size.
PROPERTY MADE FROM OR CONTAINING
MATERIALS FROM ENDANGERED OR
PROTECTED SPECIES
Property that contains any percentage of material
made or potentially made from endangered and/or
other protected species of wildlife are, as a courtesy,
marked in the catalogue with the symbol “ * ”.
Michaan’s Auctions does not accept any responsibility or liability for failing to mark such lots. Such
material includes, but is not limited to, ivory, tortoise
shell, crocodile skin, whalebone, rhinoceros horn,
some species of coral and certain woods.
Prospective buyers are advised that several countries completely prohibit importation of property
made, all or in part, of proscribed materials. Some
countries require special permits, such as a CITES
permit, from the relevant regulating authority in the
countries of exportation and importation as well.
Potential buyers intending to import the property
into another country should be familiar with the relevant customs laws and regulations prior to bidding
on property containing wildlife material. Regulations
may vary as the U.S. prohibits importation of articles
containing material(s) from species it has designated
endangered or threatened if the articles are less
than 100 years old.
It shall be the potential buyer’s sole responsibility to research and satisfy the requirements of any laws and regulations that apply
to the import and export of property as
described in the aforementioned paragraphs.
Prospective buyers must also note that the
inability or delay in obtaining permits, licenses or other permissions to import or export
property containing potentially regulated
wildlife material will not constitute a basis for
rescission or cancellation of the sale of said
property or the delay in payment of purchased items in accordance with the
Conditions of Sale.
Definitions of Authorship:
This is to qualify the relationship between the object
and the named person in the catalogue. The following conventions for attribution are used by
Michaan’s Auctions:
Giovanni Bellini: In our opinion a work by the artist. When the artist’s forename(s) is not known, a
series of asterisks, followed by the surname of the
artist, whether preceded by an initial or not, indicates that in our opinion the work is by the artists
named.
Attributed to Giovanni Bellini: In our opinion
probably a work by the artist but less certainty as
to authorship is expressed than in the preceding
category.
Studio of Giovanni Bellini: In our opinion a work
by an unknown hand in the studio of the artist,
which may or may not have been executed under
the artist’s direction.
Circle of Giovanni Bellini: In our opinion a work
by an as yet unidentified by distinct hand, closely
associated with the named artist but not necessarily
his pupil.
Style of ......; follower of Giovanni Bellini: In
our opinion a work by a painter working in the artist’s style, contemporary or near contemporary, but
not necessarily his pupil.
Manner of Giovanni Bellini: In our opinion a
work in the style of the artist and of a later date.
after Giovanni Bellini: In our opinion a copy of a
known work of the artist.
The term signed and/or dated and/or inscribed
means that in our opinion the signature and/or date
and/or inscription are from the hand of the artist.
The term bears a signature and/or date and/or
inscription means that in our opinion the signature
and/or date and/or inscription have been added by
another hand.
“bearing signature...”/”bearing date...”/”bearing inscription...” In our opinion the signature/
date/inscription is by a hand other than that of the
artist.
Typical Headings:
FURNITURE
George III Mahogany Chest of Drawers
Third Quarter 18th Century
This heading, with date included, means that
the piece is, in our opinion, of the period indicated with no major alterations or restorations.
George III Mahogany Chest of Drawers
This heading, without the inclusion of the date,
indicates that, in our opinion, the piece, while
basically of the period, has undergone significant restoration and alteration.
George III Style Mahogany Chest of Drawers
The inclusion of the word “style” in the heading indicates that, in our opinion, the piece was
made as an intentional reproduction of an earlier style.
BRONZES
Antoine-Louis Barye
This heading indicates that the casting and patination were done by the artist or with his
direct authorization or supervsion.
Cast After a Model by Antoine-Louis Barye
This heading indicates that the casting and patination of a known Barye model were done by
another, i.e., artisans at the F. Barbedienne or
other foundry.
CERAMICS
Meissen Porcelain Cup and Saucer
Late 19th Century
This states that the cup and saucer were made
at the Meissen factory in the last quarter of
the 19th Century.
Meissen Porcelain Cup and a Saucer
Late 19th Century
Again, this states that the cup and saucer were
made at the Meissen factory in the last quarter of the 19th Century, but it also indicates
that the cup and saucer may not have been
“born” together.
Circa 1900
This states that the cup and saucer are of Meissen
style, and although of the date specified, not necessarily made at the Meissen factory.
‘Meissen’ Porcelain Cup and a Saucer
19th Century
This states that the cup and saucer are of
Meissen style, and although of the date specified, not necessarily made at the Meissen factory.
The title without a specific date simply states
that the pieces were made at the Meissen factory but does not specify when, implying that
their age is questionable.
