WHAT BETTER WAY TO SPEND A SUNDAY
Sunday 21st September
The idea of holding an auction on a Sunday proved to be a winning formula yet again for Leonard Joel.
The eccletic collection of artworks on sale was matched by the diverse audience, given Leonard Joel created a catalogue that offered something for everyone, appealing to a broad range of tastes and budgets.
Says Richard Ennis, Head of Art "Holding our bi-monthly auctions on a Sunday has created a wonderful opportunity for people to come into a relaxed environment to start or add to their art collection. Our re-branding of the Sunday Art Auction has translated to excellent prices over a wide range of artworks and effectively introduced a new clientele to the auction art world."

As anticipated, art deco was the flavour of the month at Leonard Joel's European and Australian Decorative Arts and Fine Furniture auction on Tuesday 26 August. Two patinated bronze and ivory figures, ‘Sonny Boy' and ‘Hoop Girl' found a new home with an international collector at $13,000*, while a bronze and ivory figure of a winsome golfer reached $16,000*. These were followed by the hotly anticipated bronze and ivory 'Hindu Dancer' figure, by Claire Jeanne Roberte Colinet. Widely promoted in the marketing and publicity for the auction and featuring on the front cover of the catalogue, this piece prompted heated competition between both international and local bidders, ultimately selling to an Australian telephone bidder for $30,000*.
