A collection of decorative items and artworks including a Pat Divisioni textile piece, a wall clock, a circular mirror, and various prints. The wall clock is constructed from a live-edge burl wood slab featuring metallic hour markers and gold-tone hands. A circular wall mirror with a thin metal frame is included. The framed artwork includes a trio of modern floral prints in black frames and a large print depicting a surrealist-style scene of a woman with a cat and a blue bird.

The textile piece is an original embroidery featuring a landscape with two felt sheep, mounted and bearing a white adhesive label to the upper left corner reading ‘Original Embroideries Pat Divisioni 01395 – 271646’. Unframed works include several landscape watercolours, one of which is inscribed ‘St. Austell’ in pencil on the mount, and a sepia-toned print of a historic street scene with vintage motor vehicles. This lot comprises the decorative items and artworks only; the shelving and storage units shown in the background of the photographs are not included.


Condition report:

Wear and scuffing are visible to the edges and corners of the wooden and black frames (photo 1, 2, 4). Surface dust and spotting are present on the glass of the framed prints and the surface of the circular mirror (photo 2, 3). Minor staining, foxing, and corner creasing are evident on the paper mounts of the unframed watercolours and the sepia print (photo 5, 6). The burl wood clock displays natural irregularities and fissures consistent with the material (photo 1).
