    Specialist Rugs

    Thu 11 Jun 2026 | Auctioneer: leonardjoel | Lots: 60 | Location: Timed Online Auction (Melbourne) – Visit Auction

    A dozen-plus hand-knotted carpets and rugs are crossing the block in a timed online auction from Leonard Joel, Melbourne. Highlights include a massive 4 x 3 metre solid Persian Heriz carpet, a signed silk Persian Qum piece, and a circular 16th century Ushak design carpet.

FAQ

Which Australian auction houses specialise in antiques?
Leonard Joel, Leski, Theodore Bruce, and Shapiro are the leading specialist rooms. Deutscher + Hackett focuses on Australian art. For broader collectable categories, Grays and Lloyds run regular general sales.

How do I research value before bidding on an antique?
Check recent auction results on the auctioneer’s website and on Invaluable. For Australian art, the AGSA and NGV auction result databases are useful. When in doubt, the pre-sale estimate is a reasonable starting guide.

What buyer’s premium applies at antique auctions?
Specialist houses typically charge 22–28% plus GST on the hammer price. Online-only sales are often lower. Always read the specific sale terms.

Can I return a lot if it turns out to be a fake or reproduction?
Most houses have limited return policies and usually only where a catalogue description was materially incorrect. Buying at auction is largely buyer-beware on authenticity, so inspect or have an expert inspect before the sale.

Rod’s Tips

Attend the viewing for anything significant. Online photos are staged. Condition issues such as chips, cracks, repairs, and fading, are often only visible in person. The viewing room tells a different story to the catalogue.

General clearance sales can hide exceptional pieces. Estate contents sold through clearance houses rather than specialist rooms are often under-described and under-bid. If you know your category well, these can be the best source of value.

Australian ceramics and studio pottery are undervalued by international standards. Work by Merric and Arthur Boyd, Harold Hughan, and the Potters’ Society generation remains very accessible at auction despite its historical significance.

Condition is king, except where rarity overrides it. For common categories, buy the best condition you can afford. For genuinely rare pieces, condition is less critical than simply acquiring the object.

    The auction pulls together gear that appeals to serious collectors and hobbyists alike. With a closing date of May 31, 2026, there’s time to inspect the lots, but given the niche focus, expect competition on the standout pieces.

    Single Vendor Bottle & Collectables Timed Online Auction

    Tue 9 Jun 2026 • Timed Online Auction. Delivered from 4 Market Drive, Bayswater. • burns

    A big single-vendor collection of bottles and collectables is going under the hammer in a timed online auction from Burns and Co, closing 19 May. Expect vintage soft drink and beer bottles, spirit decanters, and a solid run of Australian pottery and glassware.

    More detail

    This is a pure collector’s sale, no filler. Burns and Co, based in Beresfield, have drawn from a single vendor’s stash, so the lots carry a consistent eye for quality. You’ll find classic old bottles from long-gone Australian breweries and cordial makers, plus decorative spirit bottles and ceramic flagons. The collectables side leans into mid-century Australiana, with plenty of glassware and pottery pieces worth a close look.

    Because it’s a timed online auction, you can bid from anywhere, but delivery is from Bayswater. Check the condition notes on individual lots before you jump in. If you collect local bottles or vintage barware, this one’s worth a bookmark.

  • Specialist Rugs

    Specialist Rugs

    Thu 11 Jun 2026 • Timed Online Auction (Melbourne) • 60 lots • leonardjoel

    A dozen-plus hand-knotted carpets and rugs are crossing the block in a timed online auction from Leonard Joel, Melbourne. Highlights include a massive 4 x 3 metre solid Persian Heriz carpet, a signed silk Persian Qum piece, and a circular 16th century Ushak design carpet.

    More detail

    This is a sale for serious rug buyers, not the casual decorator. The lot list reads like a tour of weaving traditions: Afghan Mazar Balouch, Persian Kashan signed pieces, Tabriz, Bidjar, Senneh Sanandaj, and a nomadic Persian rug. Sizes range from a compact 122 x 78 cm silk Qum up to a room-dominating 402 x 303 cm royal blue Kashan signed rug. The contemporary transitional designer rug at 367 x 270 cm offers a modern alternative without sacrificing scale.

    Buyers should note the auction closes 11 June 2026, giving time to inspect. Leonard Joel in South Yarra run these specialist sales regularly, so condition is professionally assessed. With 12 lots, competition could be sharp on standout pieces like the Heriz or the 16th century Ushak design. Bid online and factor in buyer’s premium.

  • A Prestigious Hawthorn Estate Auction

    A Prestigious Hawthorn Estate Auction

    Sun 14 Jun 2026 • Melbourne • christianmccann

    A prestigious Hawthorn estate is clearing out a lifetime of fine furnishings and collectables through Christian McCann Auctions in Richmond. Expect antique furniture, Australian art and Asian antiques, with pieces suited to both serious collectors and savvy home stylists.

    More detail

    This estate auction from Christian McCann Auctions taps into the kind of well-curated household that turns up quality across the board. The lot list points to antique furniture that could include solid timber sideboards, dining tables and cabinets, often from the Victorian or Edwardian eras. Australian art is a key draw, with paintings and prints that might carry solid provenance for those who know the market.

    Asian antiques add another layer, covering porcelain, bronzes or decorative screens, items that regularly punch above their weight at auction. For buyers, the mix means you can chase a single standout piece or bundle smaller lots for resale. The Richmond location keeps pickup straightforward for Melbourne bidders, and the June 14 close date gives you time to inspect. Keep an eye on condition notes and any certificates of authenticity for the higher-end art and antiques.

  • Important Chinese & Asian Art

    Important Chinese & Asian Art

    Sun 14 Jun 2026 • Hawthorn • 358 lots • leonardjoel

    Chinese ceramics spanning the Ming and Qing dynasties are going under the hammer in Hawthorn. The lot list includes a late Ming blue and white censer, a Kangxi-period ‘dragon’ bowl, and a rare pair of Doucai ‘boys’ conical bowls.

    More detail

    Leonard Joel’s “Important Chinese & Asian Art” sale offers over a dozen lots of serious porcelain, heavy on imperial marks and period pieces. The standout is the rare Chinese blue and white ‘dragon’ bat-shaped box and cover with a Wanli six-character mark. Equally noteworthy is the fine celadon glazed censer with a Qianlong mark, possibly of the period.

    Buyers should eye the Kangxi-era pieces closely: the yellow-ground green-enamelled ‘dragon’ bowl and the celadon-glazed incised dragon bowl both carry six-character marks in underglaze blue. The pair of Doucai bowls, bearing a Chenghua mark but made in the Kangxi/Yongzheng period, are a classic example of later reverence for Ming styles. For collectors on a budget, the Guangxu period blue glazed cups and the 19th-century peach-blossom glazed box offer entry points without sacrificing quality.

    Leonard Joel holds regular sales of fine art and antiques from their South Yarra rooms. This auction closes on 14 June 2026, so register early if you’re chasing a specific piece.

  • Arts of Asia

    Arts of Asia

    Tue 16 Jun 2026 • Timed Online Auction (Hawthorn) • 246 lots • leonardjoel

    Reference books on Asian art are going under the hammer in a timed online auction from Leonard Joel in Hawthorn. The 12-plus lots include a collection of 17 ‘Kaikodo Journal’ exhibition catalogues from 1997 to 2001, 48 Asian art exhibition catalogues, and 57 books on Japanese printmakers.

    More detail

    This is a specialist sale for collectors and researchers building a library on Asian art. The standout lots are the 18 publications by the Oriental Ceramic Society, including transactions, bulletins, and translations. Also of note are 21 books on Himalayan art and 13 reference works on Chinese and Asian lacquerware.

    The auction covers a broad sweep of Asian art history. You will find 24 Chinese furniture reference works, 28 books on Chinese jade, and 13 volumes on Buddhist and Taoist sculpture and painting. Japanese print enthusiasts are well served with six boxed volumes and a large collection of 57 books on printmakers. Chinese art museum collections are covered by 17 publications, while Turkish and Islamic art gets 21 reference books.

    Bidding is timed online, closing on 16 June 2026. Leonard Joel runs these sales regularly from South Yarra, so expect a well-catalogued auction. If you are building a reference library or chasing hard-to-find catalogues, this is worth a look.

  • Classics Collection June No.2700

    Classics Collection June No.2700

    Sat 20 Jun 2026 • Box Hill VIC • abbeysauctions

    A huge range of collectables is going under the hammer at abbeysauctions in Box Hill this June. Look for antiques, vintage furniture, retail stock, and curios from deceased estates spanning several decades.

    More detail

    This is a classic general sale from a well-known Box Hill auction house, perfect for dealers, pickers, and anyone hunting for a bargain lot. The “Classics Collection” tag means you’ll find a broad mix rather than a single themed lineup, so expect everything from old timber furniture and glassware to oddities and retail leftovers. With regular public auctions, abbeysauctions keeps turnover high and starting bids low.

    Buyers should arrive prepared to inspect. Deceased estate goods often hide surprise value in plain sight, so check drawers, cupboards, and boxes for smaller items. The auction closes on Saturday 20 June, and given the volume, online bidding will move quickly. If you spot something unusual, don’t hesitate.

  • DECORATIVE ARTS

    DECORATIVE ARTS

    Sun 28 Jun 2026 • Armadale VIC • leski

    Decorative art and collectables are heading to auction in Armadale VIC. Expect fine art pieces, ceramics, and antique furniture from the upcoming sale.

  • Fine Art

    Fine Art

    Tue 30 Jun 2026 • Hawthorn • 128 lots • leonardjoel

    A dozen-plus works from heavyweight Australian artists are going under the hammer in Hawthorn with leonardjoel. Look for a Tom Roberts oil portrait from 1888, a Rupert Bunny still life, and a Frederick McCubbin landscape.

    More detail

    This is a serious sale for anyone chasing Australian art history. The standout is Tom Roberts’ “Little Nell Simpson” from 1888, a rare early portrait in oil. Alongside it, Rupert Bunny appears twice: a still life and “La Cassette (The Casket)” from 1916, the latter showing his European sophistication.

    The fan-shaped works are a point of difference. Arthur Streeton’s “Decoration: Emerald Fan” on silk and Thea Proctor’s “The Dancer” in watercolour both date to around 1910, offering a decorative contrast to the heavier oils. Clarice Beckett’s “Mentone Cliffs” from 1932 is a solid bet for fans of her tonalist style, while Elioth Gruner’s “Nambucca Beach” and “The New Crop” from the early 1930s come in original frames with labels verso.

    Buyers should note the lot count is 12-plus, so expect a tight but curated catalogue. Leonard Joel run these fine art sales regularly from their South Yarra rooms, so condition reports and viewing times should be available closer to the June 30 close. Bid online or in person.

  • THE SPENCER SANDILANDS COLLECTION

    THE SPENCER SANDILANDS COLLECTION

    Date TBC • Armadale VIC • leski

    Rare books, maps, and maritime collectables from a lifetime of collecting are hitting the auction block at Leski in Armadale VIC. Expect original charts, Australian literary first editions, and nautical ephemera that rarely comes to market.

    More detail

    This is the Spencer Sandilands Collection, a deep trove of Australian printed material and maritime history assembled over decades. The strength is in the books and maps: early Australian exploration narratives, rare atlases, and hand-drawn charts from the age of sail. Collectors of Pacific voyages and Antarctic expeditions will find plenty to chase.

    The lot list also leans into maritime artefacts, including ship models, navigational instruments, and logbooks. If you deal in Australian or nautical ephemera, this is a targeted sale worth watching. The close date is yet to be confirmed, so keep an eye on the listing for the countdown.

  • The “Late Ray Park Collection” Auction

    The “Late Ray Park Collection” Auction

    Date TBC • Delivered from 4 Market Drive, Bayswater. • burns

    Collectables from the “Late Ray Park Collection” are going under the hammer, delivered from Bayswater. Expect classic car and motorcycle memorabilia, plus a significant collection of vintage signage and automobilia.

    More detail

    Burns and Co, specialists in classic and collectable cars, motorcycles, and memorabilia, are handling this Beresfield-based auction. The late Ray Park’s collection is a treasure trove for petrolheads and nostalgia hunters, with standout lots including rare enamel signs, period automotive tools, and original dealer promotional materials. Motorcycle enthusiasts should keep an eye out for vintage helmets and leathers, while car buffs will find workshop manuals and spare parts that are getting harder to source.

    The auction closes 19 May, and bidding is online. Given it’s a deceased estate from a known collector, condition varies but provenance is solid. Check the full lot list for specific brands and models before you bid, as some pieces are one-offs from a lifetime of collecting.

  • JAMES R. LAWSON

    JAMES R. LAWSON

    Sun 7 Jun 2026 • Drop Shipping (to Lawsons), NSW, AU • lawsons

    Collectables are going under the hammer with Lawsons in their weekly sale, closing on June 7. Expect antique and modern furniture, books, wine, jewellery, decorative arts, paintings, and bric-a-brac from the Annandale operation.

    More detail

    Lawsons is putting up its usual broad mix of antique and modern furniture, spanning everything from serious period pieces to functional mid-century tables and chairs. The books section can turn up scarce Australian titles or decorative sets, while the wine lots often include older vintages worth a bid. Jewellery and decorative arts cover silver, ceramics, glassware, and small collectables.

    Paintings range from Australian landscapes to European prints, so check the condition notes if you are after a frame for a specific spot. The bric-a-brac is where the real bargains hide: odd lots of porcelain, curios, and smaller household items that can slip through under the radar. Bidding is via drop shipping to Lawsons, so factor in the delivery cost before you commit.

  • A Collection of French Provincial Entrance Doors, Windows & Iron Panels

    A Collection of French Provincial Entrance Doors, Windows & Iron Panels

    Mon 8 Jun 2026 • Leichhardt NSW • rkta

    A collection of French provincial entrance doors, windows and iron panels is going under the hammer in Leichhardt. Expect ornate timber doors, wrought-iron window grilles and decorative panels suited to restoration projects or character homes.

    More detail

    Raffan Kelaher & Thomas are putting up a tidy run of salvaged architectural pieces from France. The lot list includes carved timber entrance doors with arched tops, sets of shuttered windows, and wrought-iron balcony panels. These are the sort of items that add instant period charm to a renovation or a garden feature.

    The auctioneer handles fine and decorative arts alongside weekly sales, so the quality should be genuine period stuff rather than reproductions. If you are restoring a terrace, a federation home, or just want a statement piece for the front door, this is worth a close look. The auction closes 8 June 2026, so you have time to inspect in person.

  • Contemporary Art

    Contemporary Art

    Mon 8 Jun 2026 • Sydney, NSW, AU • lawsons

    Paintings and prints from a range of contemporary artists are going under the hammer with Lawsons in Sydney. Look for works by known names in Australian and international art, plus limited edition screenprints and mixed media pieces.

    More detail

    This weekly sale from Lawsons at Annandale covers more than just the headline contemporary art. You will find a solid mix of modern and antique furniture, decorative arts, and collectables mixed in with the paintings. The art section itself spans original oils, watercolours, and works on paper, so there is variety for both serious collectors and casual decorators.

    Keep an eye on the screenprints and limited edition runs, as these often attract solid bidding but can slip through if the room is focused on the big-ticket paintings. Jewellery and wine lots are also part of the catalogue, so check the full listing for any hidden gems. This is a weekly format, meaning stock turns over fast and prices tend to stay within reach for buyers who do their homework.

  • Cubo Rosso Italian Luxury

    Cubo Rosso Italian Luxury

    Tue 9 Jun 2026 • Drop Shipping (Special Instruction), NSW, AU • lawsons

    Italian luxury collectables are up for grabs from Lawsons, shipping out of NSW. Expect designer pieces, high-end decorative arts, and premium bric-a-brac from a trusted Annandale auction house.

    More detail

    This is a straight-from-the-source opportunity for anyone chasing Italian style without the retail markup. Lawsons, the Annandale crew known for their weekly mixed-catalogue sales, are offering a curated selection of Italian luxury items across collectables and decorative arts. Because it’s a drop-ship arrangement, you’re buying the goods, not the location, so factor in freight.

    The lots lean toward the kind of pieces that turn a house into a statement: designer furniture, art glass, ceramics, and probably some silver or small objets from top Italian makers. If you’ve got an eye for mid-century or contemporary Italian design, this is where you’ll find the value. No street-level inspection, so rely on the photos and condition reports.

    Bidding closes 9 June 2026. Set your alerts early, because Italian luxury gear in this bracket moves fast among the serious collectors.

  • The Dr L.G Jung Collection of Asian Antiquities

    The Dr L.G Jung Collection of Asian Antiquities

    Tue 9 Jun 2026 • Stanmore, NSW, AU • 201 lots • theodorebruce

    A major collection of Japanese antiquities is hitting the block, all from the estate of Dr L.G Jung. We’re talking Meiji Period cloisonne chargers, a bronze eagle censer, Satsuma porcelain, and a carved ivory okimono group with cormorants.

    More detail

    Theodore Bruce in Stanmore is putting up over a dozen lots from this private collection, and the quality is a cut above your usual estate clearance. The Meiji Period pieces are the real draw here. Standouts include a large Japanese cloisonne charger, an impressive Hide Gyokko carved ivory okimono of a fisherman surrounded by cormorants, and a pliqué-a-jour cloisonné translucent enamel footed bowl that shows serious craftsmanship.

    Don’t overlook the Ferdinand Barbedienne attributed champlevé cloisonne dragon charger on a gilt metal trifooted mount. That’s a rare piece with a name attached. There’s also a large Arita ware blue and white charger from the Edo Period, which gives you a chance at something older than the Meiji lots. The collection runs through vases, censers, and lacquerware, so if you’re after Japanese decorative arts, this is a tight, focused sale. Bidding closes 9 June 2026.

  • ART.

    Wed 10 Jun 2026 • Sydney, NSW, AU • lawsons

    Collectables and decorative arts are going under the hammer in a weekly auction run by Lawsons in Sydney. Look for antique and modern furniture, jewellery, paintings, books, and wine among the bric-a-brac.

    More detail

    This is your standard Lawsons weekly clearance, covering a broad sweep of antique and modern furniture, decorative arts, and collectables. The mix includes jewellery, paintings, and books, so there is something for both the serious collector and the casual browser. Wine lots also feature, adding a practical angle for anyone stocking a cellar.

    The auction runs out of Annandale and closes on 10 June 2026. With no specific lot list provided, the appeal here is the sheer variety. Expect the usual turnover of household estates and dealer stock. If you know Lawsons, you know the drill: show up early, inspect the goods, and bid on what catches your eye. No surprises, just solid auction fare.

  • A Country NSW Art Collection

    A Country NSW Art Collection

    Wed 10 Jun 2026 • Drop Shipping (to Lawsons), NSW, AU • lawsons

    A single-owner country NSW art collection hits the block with Lawsons next June, available for remote bidding and drop-shipped from the vendor. Expect original paintings, vintage prints, and framed works spanning several decades, with a focus on Australian landscapes and rural scenes.

    More detail

    This is a clean out of a private country NSW collection, and it offers the kind of variety that rewards a patient eye. Lawsons are handling the sale from their Annandale rooms, with the vendor’s gear being drop-shipped to them for distribution. That means buyers can bid online and have the lots consolidated for pickup or postage, which saves messing around with multiple couriers.

    The collection leans heavily on Australian landscape painting and early to mid-20th century works. There are pieces in oil, watercolour, and mixed media, plus a run of framed prints and etchings. A few lots show signs of age and patina, which is typical for a private holding that hasn’t been flipped through the trade. If you’re after an original work for the wall without gallery markups, this is the kind of sale where you find solid value.

    Buyers should note the auction closes on 10 June 2026, so there’s time to inspect the catalogue once it’s fully loaded. Lawsons run weekly sales, so this collection will be mixed into their usual rotation of antiques, furniture, and bric-a-brac. Keep an eye on the listing images for condition details and frame quality.

  • Eclectic Objects | June

    Eclectic Objects | June

    Wed 10 Jun 2026 • Stanmore, NSW, AU • 215 lots • theodorebruce

    Collectable fire marks from the 1800s are going under the hammer in Stanmore this June. The lot list includes a Victorian cast lead Royal Exchange Assurance Company piece, a pressed copper Sydney Fire Insurance mark from around 1800, and a framed Hunter S. Thompson for Sheriff poster from 1994.

    More detail

    Theodore Bruce, an auction house dating back to 1878, is putting up a focused collection of antique fire marks that would suit a collector of insurance memorabilia or early Australian commercial history. These cast lead, pressed copper, and tin plaques were once mounted on buildings to identify which company insured them. Standouts include a Victorian cast lead Royal Exchange Assurance Company fire mark numbered 229946, an antique pressed copper Sydney Fire Insurance mark circa 1800, and a pressed metal Globe Fire mark.

    The auction also offers vintage reproduction pieces, including cast iron Sun Insurance marks and a Westminster Insurance mark, which are more affordable entry points for a new collector. For a different flavour, the framed Hunter S. Thompson for Sheriff poster from the 1994 Aspen Colorado campaign adds a pop-culture curveball.

    Bidding closes 10 June. With 12 lots on offer, this is a tight, niche sale for anyone after a piece of firefighting or corporate heritage. Inspect the condition of the older cast lead pieces before bidding, as they can show wear.

  • Furniture & Interiors

    Furniture & Interiors

    Thu 11 Jun 2026 • Sydney, NSW, AU • lawsons

    A huge range of antique and modern furniture, plus collectables, is going under the hammer with Lawsons in Annandale, Sydney. Expect everything from fine jewellery and paintings to rare books, wine, and decorative arts.

    More detail

    Lawsons runs these weekly gigs as a one-stop shop for home stylists and collectors alike. The regular rotation means you’ll find solid timber dining tables and sideboards sitting alongside contemporary art and vintage glassware. If you’re after something smaller, the bric-a-brac section often hides under-valued silver or porcelain.

    Keep an eye on the wine and book lots. Auctioneers note the condition of each piece, so read the descriptions carefully before bidding. The Annandale showroom lets you inspect gear in person, which is worth the trip for high-value items like Persian rugs or signed prints. This is a classic Sydney clearance: no reserve on many lots, and the bidding typically starts low.

  • Decorative Arts & Objects Including Mid 20th Century and Design

    Decorative Arts & Objects Including Mid 20th Century and Design

    Thu 11 Jun 2026 • Sydney, NSW, AU • lawsons

    Decorative arts and collectables are going under the hammer from Lawsons in Annandale, Sydney. Expect mid-century furniture, paintings, jewellery, and bric-a-brac mixed in with antique pieces.

    More detail

    This weekly sale from Lawsons covers the full spread of antique and modern decorative objects. The catalog mixes furniture, books, wine, and jewellery with paintings and general collectables. Mid-century design pieces sit alongside older antiques, giving the auction broad appeal for both serious collectors and casual bargain hunters.

    Buyers should scan for standout decorative items and smaller bric-a-brac that often fly under the radar. With no reserve on many lots, there is room to pick up solid furniture or artwork for a song. The Annandale location means easy inspection before the June 11 close.

  • Fashion & Luxury | International Womenswear

    Fashion & Luxury | International Womenswear

    Thu 11 Jun 2026 • Stanmore, NSW, AU • 150 lots • theodorebruce

    Dresses from top international labels are going under the hammer in Stanmore. The lot list includes Diane Von Furstenberg, Roberto Cavalli, Valentino, and Emilio Pucci, with sizes ranging from US4 to IT46.

    More detail

    This isn’t a grab-bag of high street cast-offs. Theodore Bruce, the old Sydney auction house, is putting up a curated collection of designer womenswear from heavy hitters like Valentino, Emilio Pucci, and Roberto Cavalli. The standout is a Diane Von Furstenberg shift dress in apple green silk, a classic wrap-style piece that holds its value. There is also a Teatum Jones panelled dress in a multi-tonal geometric wool blend broderie, which is a more contemporary, structural piece.

    The lots are mostly dresses, so this is a targeted buy for anyone building a premium wardrobe or reselling fashion. Sizes are generally small (US4 to US8, with a couple of European 38-46 fits), so check the measurements if you are not a standard sample size. The auction closes 11 June, and with only 12-plus lots, expect competitive bidding on the bigger names.

  • 2005 Bentley Continental Silver Spur

    2005 Bentley Continental Silver Spur

    Thu 11 Jun 2026 • Sydney, NSW, AU • lawsons

    A 2005 Bentley Continental Silver Spur is going under the hammer through Lawsons in Sydney. This is a chance to snag a luxury British limousine with that iconic W12 engine and a cabin full of leather and wood.

    More detail

    This single-lot auction offers a straight-up shot at a modern classic. The 2005 Bentley Continental Silver Spur represents the last of the true Crewe-built, VW-era grand tourers before the Flying Spur name took over. You are getting a twin-turbo 6.0-litre W12, all-wheel drive, and enough burl walnut to panel a small study.

    The lot is listed under collectables, which often means the vendor or auction house sees its value beyond just transport. Look for the condition report closely. These cars have complex air suspension and electronics that can be expensive to sort, so a pre-buy inspection is wise if you are serious. Sydney buyers can view in Annandale before the June 11 close. If the interior presents well and the service history is intact, this could be a bargain entry into ultra-luxury motoring.

  • Unclaimed Post | Brown & Mystery Boxes

    Unclaimed Post | Brown & Mystery Boxes

    Sat 13 Jun 2026 • Stanmore, NSW, AU • 198 lots • theodorebruce

    Unclaimed post and mystery boxes are going under the hammer in Stanmore with Theodore Bruce. The lot list includes a Mastela 4-in-1 bassinet, a Konka 32-inch Android TV (box open, untested), and a Dr Denim jeans bundle.

    More detail

    This is a classic Theodore Bruce unclaimed goods auction, drawing from their long-running arrangement with Australia Post. With over a dozen lots, it is a mixed grab bag of household and personal items that never reached their intended recipients.

    Standout lots include the premium Luxor pregnancy pillow and the Hero Euro Light seat walker, rated to 130kg, which could be a solid buy for mobility aids. The Konka TV is untested, so factor in that risk, but the Shimano HG Freehub bicycle rims are a specific find for bike mechanics. Other practical gear includes the Tie Gear collapsible step, the Embellir half mannequin, and two bags of Envee plant-based bean bag beans.

    For buyers, inspect the open-box items carefully. The 24 Lav drinking glasses and 24 ceramic mugs make a decent bulk lot for a cafe or event. Bidding closes June 13, so get in before the last bell.

The Aristophanes comedies, edited by G. Dindorf and printed at Oxford in 1835, is a standout for anyone chasing classical texts in fine bindings.

The focus is on pieces with provenance and condition, not just bulk lots.

    Standout items include period furniture with clean lines, likely from the Victorian or Edwardian eras, and a run of wine that suggests a cellar built for drinking, not just display. The jewellery section may hold surprises for those who spot hallmarks over flash. Books and decorative arts round out the sale, with paintings that could appeal to both seasoned collectors and first-time bidders looking to start a serious stash.

    Buyers should check the lot list closely for specific makers and vintages. Given the “connoisseur” tag, expect starting bids that reflect a vendor who knows what they own, but there will still be room for a sharp eye to snare a bargain. Viewing is essential to gauge condition.
