Greystoke Castle

Nine Medieval carved oak pew panels from Greystoke Castle will go under the hammer next week.

They are among the 1,600 lots at the Mitchells three-day antiques and fine art sale in Cockermouth, which begins on Wednesday.

The oak panels from the castle near Penrith are being sold in seven lots, with a combined estimate of £6,000 to £9,000.

The most valuable are expected to be three oak panels carved in relief with the profile of a figure, one with a headdress, another with a wide brimmed hat and the third with plaited hair, which have an auction estimate of £1,000-£1,500 each.

Also from Greystoke Castle are two 19th century silver plated shields by Elkington & Co.

One is a copy of The Cellini Shield embossed with a scene from the battle of Pharsalia made for the Victoria Department of Science and Arts which is expected to make £1,500 to £1,800.

The other shield is embossed with a Renaissance cavalry battle scene and is valued at £1,200 to £1,500.

Also of local interest are artworks by the celebrated Workington-born artist Percy Kelly (1918-1993) including a watercolour of Gote Bridge in Cockermouth with an auction estimate of £2,500 to £3,500 and two framed and signed limited edition etchings, one of a village street scene which is expected to make £400 to £600 and another of a Cockermouth street scene valued at £250 to £400.

Other highlights among the pictures are an impasto oil painting of breaking waves by Karl Boehme (1866-1939) which could make £1,200 to £1,500 and an oil painting of a harbour scene by Richard Weatherill (1844-1913) Twilight Soft Steals O’er, with an estimate of £1,500 to £2,500.

The sale features a selection of French gilt clocks as well as a Georgian ebonised bracket clock by Wilmer London which could make £3,000 to £4,000.

Another fine William IV rosewood cased mantel clock by Viner, 235 Regents Street London is expected to sell for £800 to £1,200.

The most valuable longcase clock is expected to be a late 18th/early 19th century mahogany longcase clock by Lewis of Frodsham which could make £2,000 to £2,500.

Other valuable lots include an early George III figured walnut secretaire bookcase with an estimate of £2,000 to £2,500 and two Georgian fruitwood tea caddies, one shaped as an apple with a brass lock escutcheon and lead lined interior, the other in the form of a melon both valued between £800 to £1,200.

The sale will be on view in the saleroom from Sunday, 11am to 3pm, Monday and Tuesday between 10am and 5pm and throughout each sale day.

Mitchells next three-day Country Sporting Sale will be held from October 6 to October 8 and there will also be a sale of the principal contents of Greystoke Castle on October 18.
