Rare and Highly Important Cased George Wostenholm 1851 Award
Winning Crystal Palace IXL Tortoiseshell Exhibition Sports Lockback
Knife together with Signed and Numbered Copy of Sheffield Exhibition
Knives Book, No 17 of 1300. One of the Finest Knives by George
Wostenholm and Son, circa 1850. An exhibition sports lockback knife

a fleam, a leather sewing blade, a hacksaw with blade, a wine cork
remover, a chisel blade, an awl, two pen blades, a clip blade, a fancy manicure blade, and a corkscrew. It has the following pull-out pieces; tweezers with a lancet inside, scissors, a fly fishermans leader tweezers, and
a pipe cleaner. The grip scales are perfect tortoiseshell. The fancy bolsters are sterling silver fully engraved. Even the parts to the pull-out
implements, which are hidden under the handles, are engraved so that it
is difficult to notice these tools. The backs of the blades are fancy fileworked as are the insides of the springs and the brass liners. This knife
is almost 1 3/8 inches thick, nine springs across, and about 1 1/2 inches
deep from the back springs to the tops of the blades. The knife was
chosen for the prestigious cover illustration of the book Sheffield
Exhibition Knives. The Knife was identified as one of the knives made by
Wostenholm for the 1851 Crystal Palace Exhibition and also exhibited
in 1855 in the Paris Exhibition where the knives were awarded the Gold
Medal of Honor, the only one awarded for English cutlery. The knife is
contained in the original French style red-velvet covered exhibition case.
Lined in white velvet and mounted with four individual descriptive ivory
escutcheons, the knife remains in mint condition in the original presentation format as it did in 1851. A truly exceptional and rare example of
of the exhibition art of George Wostenholm & Son. Sold together with

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 Buyers 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. Auctioneers 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
Auctioneers 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.
MAs 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 MAs 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.
BUYERS 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 attorneys 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 Consignors 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 MAs 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 Sellers commission, the buyers 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 Consignors 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 MAs 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 purchasers 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.

the dispute for binding arbitration before a single

and with the UCC. The arbitrator shall be required
to follow the law in making his award, and the award
shall be in writing and shall set forth findings of fact
and legal conclusions.(c) The arbitration shall occur

either Oakland or San Francisco, California, unless
the parties agree to another location. Discovery

otherwise agreed to by the parties, follow the procedures and policies of AAA governing commercial
arbitration, subject however to the following modifications:
1. All arbitration proceedings shall be confidential.
None of the parties nor the arbitrator, may disclose
the existence, content or results of the arbitration
without the written consent of all parties.
2. The parties shall attempt to agree on the issues to
be arbitrated, or identify the disputed issues in writing no later than 45 days prior to arbitration.

hours to present its position. The entire hearing
before the arbitrator shall not take longer than
three (3) consecutive days, unless all parties agree

days following the end of the proceeding. Judgment
upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be
entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof.

costs in connection with the proceedings and shall
share equally the fees and expenses of the arbitrator.

JEWELRY SOLD AT MICHAANS AUCTIONS:
It is the responsibility of the bidder to examine
carefully any item(s) of potential interest.
For all the jewelry sold here at Michaans 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
45
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 * .
Michaans 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 buyers 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
Michaans Auctions:
Giovanni Bellini: In our opinion a work by the artist. When the artists 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 artists 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 artists 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.
