Mother’s Day
Wednesday, August 13nd
Yesterday I was on the road all day, saw some very fine pieces for October. And came back with a car full of fine wines (Ausone, Rieussec et al).
Today we have to notice that our auction room is filled to the brim, unless you want to deposite the odd Van Gogh, please wait to bring items until after the September sales. Thank you.
Monday, Augustus 11th
Another van load with some quite nice items came in today and a few more wine pallets. That should end the big transports this month. It’s full, really full. Lets see, a Jaeger Lecoultre Atmos clock is always nice to auction, as are some old bottles of Mouton-Rothschild.

Still hesitating between languages. Now that we enter the world of google searches, maybe we might want to stick to English. But still most of our customers are Dutch speakers, with French as a second… Meanwhile I’m doing some translating descriptions from Dutch to French, as I’ve always done. Should I trust google translate more?
Evening
Quite a few nice lots came in this afternoon. A pair of sweet little pastoral landscapes by Cornelis Van Leemputten, e.g. And a beautiful Georgian bureau-bookcase. Or, if you prefer,an old inlay mandoline or a mahogany bandoneon…
Afternoon
We just received two pallets of wine to be added to our fine wine auction of September 16th.
As you may well know, our June wine auction was postponed due to our Belgian socker team doing rather well in Brasil… This time it will be for real!
