About
Mossgreen
Auctions
Mossgreen
Auctions
specialises
in single
owner
auctions
for
collections
covering
fine
art
and
antiques.
Services
include
auctions
held
in our
stylish
multi-level
building
on Toorak
Road
South
Yarra,
on site
auctions
at the
owner’s
property
or
staged
events
in
hired
premises
tailored
to
suit
the
collection.
With
nearly
25 years
auction
experience
with
Sotheby's,
Christies
and
Australian
auction
houses
both
locally
and
internationally,
Mossgreen
Auctions
director
Paul
Sumner
is available
to advise
and
personally
manage
the
sale
of your
collection.
We
offer
realistic
selling
terms
and
personalised
marketing
attention
that
ensures
the
very
best
results.
Antiques
often
fetch
higher
prices
and
attract
more
public
interest
when
kept
together
as a
collection
and
especially
when
the
viewing
and
auction
is held
on site. Whilst
the
entire
event
cannot
always
be
held
at
an owners
property
it
is important
to
explore
the
options
first
as
it can
have
a great
effect
on
the
results.
Mossgreen
Auctions
has
handled
over
20
major
single-owner
collections to
date
including:
The
Ray
Mitchell
and
Julian
Sterling
auction
in
February
2007
where
the
sale
total
was
an
Australian
record
for
any
antiques
auction
at
4.4
million
against
a
pre-sale
estimated
total
of
2.1
million.
Many
individual
Australian
auction
records
were
set
for
Asian
Art
at
this
auction.
The
Golden
Crust
Bakery
Collection
in
July
2006
for
Peta
and
Edward
Clark,
which
also
doubled
the
owner’s
expectations
“An
Important
Collection
of Australian
and International
Art” in
February
2006,
Sydney,
where
we generated
approximately
$1.2
million
in sales
for an
almost
total
clearance
rate
by value
and the
closing
stock
in trade
of Graham
Cornall
Antiques
of Melbourne
which
we marketed
as “The
Modern
Collector” where
we generated
approximately
1 million
dollars
in sales
at about
100%
sold
by value.
