An impressive French late 19th century giltwood table a gibier or double-sided console tableAfter the Louis XIV model attributed to Jules Degoullons which was supplied to the Chateau de Bercy in 1713The breche violette marble top with a twin cavetto moulded edge, above an inverted breakfront stand, with a guilloche frieze comprised of alternating rosette embedded twin opposing c-scrolls and bellflower pendants, each angle centred by a mille raie lambrequin with scrolled terminals surmounting two acanthus carved s-scrolls, over a ribbon wrapped bundle of reeds edging, above a scrolled and shaped strapwork apron adorned with foliage, flowers, bellflowers and beaded acanthus, centred by a cabochon encrusted scrolled cartouche surmounted by a roundel inset with low relief foliage and a central flowerhead, on four large legs each comprised of twin opposing and interlocking elongated S-form columns, each carved with two opposing Venus busts, oak leaf garlands, bulrushes and stylised foliage centred by a twin overlapping scallop shell, with an entrelac moulded and mille raie capped shaped and scrolled x-stretcher embellished with acanthus and husk pendants, the central roundel inset with a sunflower head, terminating in eight tapering square section stiff-leaf wrapped toupie feet, 180cm wide x 84cm deep x 83cm high, (70 1/2in wide x 33in deep x 32.5in high)Footnotes:An identical table to the offered lot, albeit one made by Francois Linke (and stamped as such), was recently offered Sotheby's, New York, 7 October 2024, Classic Design: Furniture, Silver & Ceramics, lot 97. Other closely related examples to have sold at auction, all unsigned, include Christie's London, 15 March 2012, lot 86; Sotheby's New York, 20 April 2009, lot 39; and Christie's London, 12 November 2020, lot 295.This remarkable table is closely based upon the model supplied to the Chateau de Bercy, in Paris, upon behalf of Charles Henri II de Malon de Bercy in 1713, just two years before the end of the reign of the 'sun king', Louis XIV. The original is attributed to the court sculptor, Jules Degoullons (c. 1671-1738). Notable tables of this design which were made during the latter part of the 19th century were, by nature of the complexity and intricacy of the work involved, executed by the foremost cabinet makers of the period. And two such examples, which are virtually identical to this lot, were produced by one of the most prolific late 19th/early 20th century figures in furniture, Francois Linke (1855-1946).Although built by the architect Francois Le Vau in 1658 upon behalf of the Malon de Bercy's father, the Chateau de Bercy, which was situated alongside the river Seine, was much altered and expanded during the period, 1702-1713. Following his collaboration with Verbeckt at the Chateau de Versailles, Jules Degoullons supplied the carved furniture and interior wall panelling or boiseries required at the Chateau de Bercy at this time, working in tandem with figures such as Andre and Mathieu Legoupil, Pierre Taupin and Marin Bellan.During the 19th century the expansion and urbanisation of Paris, along with the development of the Gare de Lyon station, meant that the Chateau was sadly destroyed in 1860, whilst its contents were sold off over the course of a four-day auction. In this process, Napoleon III acquired the Degoullons table a gibier for the Mobilier National. Subsequently, it was re-located to the Louvre Museum in 1901 (OA 5049). This masterpiece appears in G.B. Pallot, Le Mobilier du Musée du Louvre, 1993, Dijon, Vol. II, pp.'s 36-39.At approximately this same period it is evident that several copies and close imitations of this hugely impressive double-sided console table were being produced, possibly due to the increased awareness of this model. Among these, Francois Linke's firm supplied at least two tables of this type, including the one sold recently at Sotheby's (see above for details). Another identical version was provided by Linke to one of his most important clients, Elias Meyer, for 16 Grosvenor Square, London. The latter is shown in situ as illustrated in C. Payne, François Linke (1855-1946), The Belle Epoque of French Furniture, 2003, Woodbridge, pp.'s 244-245, pl.'s 259-60 as well as in C. Payne, Paris Furniture: The Luxury Market of the 19th Century, 2018, p. 135.The Elias Meyer model may even be the exact same table, also stamped for Linke, which previously sold Christie's, New York, 24 May 1993, lot 338. This is proposed since in old photographs which show the Meyer interiors, the main central cartouche on the frieze of the former is plain and undecorated, just as it appears to be on the latter. Whereas the cartouche on the recent Sotheby's variant incorporates some carved ornamentation. Interestingly, the main cartouche on the present lot is likewise similarly adorned with carving.A further very similar Louis XIV style table a gibier of this format, albeit one executed by Maison Krieger, was exhibited at the Paris Salon of 1902. It appears in an old black and white photo taken from: la revue, 'Les Arts', which is replicated in C. Mestdagh, L'Ameublement d'Art Francais, 1850-1900, 2010,This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: TPTP For auctions held in Scotland: Lots will be moved to an offsite storage location (Constantine, Constantine House, North Caldeen Road, Coatbridge ML5 4EF, Scotland, UK) and will only be available for collection from this location at the date stated in the catalogue.

Registration - W203 LNHChassis No. - WBSCM92080LB29620M.O.T. - October 2025Odometer - 100,100With less than 1,000 BMW Z3M Coupes ever making it across the Channel, W203LNH is a member of an exclusive club - a UK supplied and registered example of this remarkable M3 engined coupe. Originally registered in March 2000 this example, finished in evocative Estoril Blue, is offered from long-term private ownership. The current keeper acquired the Z3M in July 2015 with the coupe having covered around 95,000 miles and following a period of approximately four years in storage. Today the electronic odometer reads 100,328 miles, underscoring its light use under its current stewardship. With a sensible 7 keepers to date and offering a valid MOT until October 2025 this charming Z3M is offered with a stamped service book and a number of well-chosen after-market modifications.The product of a skunkworks passion project the Z3M Coupe was divisively styled by renowned BMW stylist, Chris Bangle. This example exhibits all the key characteristics of Bangle’s work. These include a roofline that is deliberately reminiscent of the BMW 328 Mille Miglia from the 1940s, 507 Roadster aping chromed “gills” and stylised, oval door mirrors. The Z3M’s long wheelbase, long bonnet, wide track and short rear end helped earn it the “clown’s shoe” or “bread van” nicknames. This car’s mechanical specification is deadly serious, however. Pre-2001 cars, like this one, were recipients of the engine from the E36 M3. The S50B32 straight-six unit would rev to nearly 8,000 rpm, delivering 321bhp on the way. The standard five-speed manual gearbox and limited slip differential endowed the Z3M with a 0-60mph in the low fives. Reassuringly, the braking system was also lifted directly from the E36 M3.This rare example has enjoyed a few tweaks along the way, too. This Z3M sits on BK Racing adjustable suspension, explaining its decidedly hunkered down stance. This is augmented by H&R uprated roll bars. AP Racing, four pot callipers are fitted and act against quality Ferodo brake pads. An AC Schnitzer short shift gear linkage is present as are AC Schnitzer alloy pedals and performance exhaust system. A carbon airbox concludes the mechanical upgrades whilst a roof panel wrapped in matt black represents the aesthetic changes. In current ownership a new clutch has been fitted, engine, gearbox and differential oils have been changed and a new battery fitted.The Z3M’s exterior condition is rated as “good for its age” by the owner. Note is made, however, of a stone chipped front bumper cover and paint micro blistering to the bonnet. The "Roadstar" Style 40, 17-inch alloy wheels are thought to be original and, by the owner’s admission, could benefit from refurbishment. The cabin appears to have fared well considering age and mileage thanks to BMW’s signature fit and finish credentials. The customary BMW “black on black” treatment is given an exterior matching lift by the ample accents of blue leather and chromed instrument bezels. The interior, predominantly carried over wholesale from the Z3, is further augmented by a trio of ultra-clear VDO auxiliary gauges in the centre console. Other refinements include air conditioning, electric mirrors, windows and sunroof, central locking and alarm. A retrofitted, remote control JVC head unit feeds the original Harmon Kardon speakers. Whilst strictly a two seater, a surprisingly generous and practical 415 litre boot lurks beneath the opening rear hatch. The original BMW toolkit and obligatory first aid kit is reported to be present.Shoehorning the sublime and high revving S50B32, naturally aspirated straight six engine into the diminutive and svelte Z3 (it was a full 135 kg lighter than the E36 M3!) was as barmy as it was inspired. In many ways, however, the Z3M was ahead of its time, considerably dearer than an M3 and, hence, made in relatively tiny numbers – 6,291 to be precise and less than 1,000 in right hand drive, UK specification. Today, however, the car has been rediscovered by individualistic millennials and Gen-Xers with insurance company, Hagerty, reporting 70% of cover requests emanating from that demographic. The Z3M has come of age.In summary:Thoughtfully and subtly upgraded and improvedOffered from long-term, enthusiast ownershipMOT until October 2025 and ready to use and enjoy immediately
Registration - KX70 EZOChassis No. - SCCLJCR5MHC10594M.O.T. - January 2025Odometer - 7,500 Widely regarded as a sweet spot in the model’s back catalogue, this example of Lotus’ Elise is in 220 Sport specification. Strikingly presented in white with black accents, ‘KX70 EZO’ is powered by the Toyota-sourced supercharged 1.8-litre four-cylinder engine, and manual six-speed gearbox. Design highlights include the single, central exit sports exhaust, black alloy wheels, and discreet rear spoiler outside, while the interior features a new take on the classic open gate for the gear lever, black leather upholstery with white stitching on the sports seats, centre console, door cards, and sills. Factory fitted equipment includes the removable hard top, electric windows, air conditioning, and carpets, with ‘KX70 EXO’ fitted with Lotus’ Touring Pack from new.Described as in immaculate condition throughout by the vendor – the engine, transmission, interior, electrics, bodywork, and paint are all reckoned ‘excellent’, the Elise 220 Sport has covered only 7,500 miles according to the odometer. Included in the sale is a reversing camera, new battery, tyre inflation kit, and tool kit. As well as the original owners manual, there are four stamps in the service book, three of which are Lotus stamps, and the fourth is from a specialist firm.Low mileage exampleSought-after version of Lotus’ Series 3 EliseHigh specification 220 Sport modelThe Series 3 model was Lotus’ third and final iteration of its game-changing sports car. Initially launched in 1996, the Elise proved a life-saver for the Norfolk-based firm, and catapulted the sports car specialist back into the big leagues. Focusing on a blend of accessible power, exceptional handling, and lightweight design, the Elise consistently placed highly in the ranks of “Driver’s Cars” from publications around the world. The Series 3 featured a modest restyling over the Series 2, arriving early in 2010, with sharper styling at the front the most significant visual change. At launch, three engine variants were on offer – the entry-level 1.6-litre straight four, a 1.8-litre unit, and a supercharged 1.8-litre version; the latter producing 220hp for a 0-62mph time of under five seconds. The Elise ceased production in 2021, with more than 35,000 units across three generations sold.
Registration - AK51 SWKChassis No. - ZAMAA38D000004150M.O.T. - September 2025Odometer - 32,438This exceptional Maserati 3200 GT is a genuine one-owner from new example, presented in pale blue. Featuring Maserati’s 3.2-litre twin-turbo V8 up front, ‘AK51 SWK’ is fitted with the four-speed automatic for a true Grand Tourer experience. Maserati’s famous boomerang rear lights are the highlight of the exterior features, this 3200 GT is awash with fantastic touches, such as the iconic trident on the C-pillars, wheels, and grille, and the quad exhausts hinting at performance potential. The cabin is trimmed in cream leather upholstery, covering the seats, centre console, and much of the dashboard and doors, though there is contrasting grey leather topping the dash and flowing to the base of the doors.A low mileage example, ‘AK51 SWK’ comes with 10 months MOT. The cam belt was changed 4,000 miles ago, and the vendor has cherished this Italian thoroughbred. There is no rust reported anywhere, either on the underside or showing in the body panels, and the 3200 GT comes with two keys. An indicated 32,438 miles on the odometer shows that it has been enjoyed, but not extensively, in its 23 years on the road, and the owner rates this Maserati as in exceptional overall condition, with all aspects - including engine, transmission, electrics, bodywork, interior, and paint - considered ‘excellent’.Beautifully kept Maserati 3200 GT autoFeatures the characterful 3.2-litre twin-turbo V8Genuine one owner exampleIntroduced in 1998, Maserati eschewed the tradition of naming its models after winds, because VW had the rights to the name it wanted, so the 3200 GT was launched. Linking back to the 3500 GT, Maserati’s first GT, the name comes from the 3.2-litre twin-turbo V8 under the bonnet, which produced 370hp when new. One of the most striking design touches on the sleek four-seater were the thin, curved ‘boomerang’ rear lights, which were dropped for more conventional clusters when the 3200 GT was replaced with the similar 4200 GT. Available with either manual or automatic transmission, the 3200 GT also saw a Assetto Cross special edition launched in 2001, with just 259 models produced, featuring a special handling package for improved performance. The 3200 GT was produced for four years when replaced by what was an evolution model, the 4200 GT, in 2002.
Registration - Y6 HYOChassis No. - SAJAC63H8FMK14270M.O.T. - November 2025Odometer - 45,000This enticing Jaguar F-Type R comes to market having covered a modest and well below average 45,879 miles to date. Complete with many expensive and desirable options this hugely capable sports coupe has been used and enjoyed by eight keepers to date. Offered without reserve this highly specified F-Type shows a Category S insurance marker from January 2019 and a Category N insurance marker from May 2022. Presenting today in a condition that is described as “excellent” throughout, this example is being sold complete with its distinctive personalised registration plate, partial service history and two, original keys.The sublime Jaguar F-Type first hit the showrooms in convertible Roadster configuration with the tin-topped Coupe launching a few months later in March 2014. As such this alluring example of the range-topping F-Type R would have been one of the first examples of this exalted breed to emphatically turn the heads of passersby, being first registered in May 2014. Costing considerably over £90,000 when new, courtesy of the addition of the £7,000 carbon ceramic brake option and others to the £85,000 list price, this R represents the apex-predator atop the F-Type food chain.This example proudly exhibits all the attributes that put the R at the pinnacle of the range and that won the hearts and blew the minds of reviewers and owners alike. Chief amongst these, of course, is the 550 PS AJ-V8 Gen III 5.0 litre power unit. Equipped in this application with a Twin Vortices Series supercharger, a veritable mountain of torque is also on tap almost from tick over, to the tune of 501 Ib-ft at 2,000 rpm. Stiffer spring rates and a trick, more aggressive electrically controlled limited slip differential help this prodigious power to be effectively deployed at will.This car’s state of the art carbon ceramic brakes not only provide almost physics defying retardation but also a respectful nod to the marque’s heritage. Jaguar, after all, were the first manufacturer to use disc brakes at the Le Mans 24 Hour Race of 1953. A fitting homage, then, that Jaguar described as “the most powerfully performing braking system ever fitted to a Jaguar road car” in 2014. With 398mm discs at the front and 380mm items at the rear sitting beneath six and four pot monobloc callipers respectively, this set up starts to look good value for its original £7,000 cost. The signature vivid yellow of the big callipers contrast strikingly with the deep, pristine black of the optional 20-inch Storm alloy wheels. A staggered set of high specification Michelin Pilot Sport S tyres adorn the big wheels being date stamped from 2022 for the rears and 2024 for the fronts. The sleek, muscular aluminium and composite bodywork appears to present beautifully in its gleaming Polaris White livery.This Jaguar’s cabin is by no means the junior partner to this heady specification, either. The cosseting cabin is finished with Jet leather with double needle stitching, and Jet hued carpets and headlining. The optional suedecoth steering wheel with carbon fibre centre console finisher features here, too. The sports focussed Performance seats feature the optional 14-way electrical adjustment, memory settings and variable heating. Padded and stitched “R” emblems adorn the integral headrests, of course. Should you want to drown out the awe-inspiring soundtrack of that supercharged V8, the optional and optimum, mighty 770 watt, 12 speaker Meridian Surround Sound system is more than equal to that task. Other refinements include satellite navigation, 8-speed ZF automatic transmission with alloy, Ignis shift paddles, reversing camera, blind spot detection, sports suspension with adaptive dynamics and switchable active sports exhaust to name a few.Such was the F-Type’s advanced design that it remained in production, only having been lightly facelifted, until June of this year. Starting with the XJR racing cars of the 1980’s and first seen in road configuration in the XJR-S of 1988, the esteemed “R” suffix is reserved for only the fastest and most prestigious Jaguars. The F-Type R stands as a proud and worthy recipient of the fabled “R” suffix to this day.In summary:A range topping F-Type R offered without reserveWell below average original mileageComplete with numerous desirable options including carbon ceramic brakesFresh MOT until November 2025
Registration - SF05 XZEChassis No. - SCFAC01A05GA02904M.O.T. - September 2025Odometer - 53,500Stately yet sporty, this example of Aston Martin’s DB9 coupe is presented in silver with maroon interior, and offered at no reserve. ‘SF05 XZE’ is powered by Aston Martin’s 6.0-litre V12, producing 450bhp when new, matched to a Tiptronic 2 six-speed automatic transmission, with manual override paddles. Factory fitted equipment includes alloy wheels, parking sensors, and electrically-adjustable front seats, with the 2+2 interior trimmed in maroon leather upholstery, and wood veneer centre console section.‘SF05 XZE’ comes with an MOT until September 2025, and comes with 14 stamps in the service record book. The vendor describes the DB9 as in great condition overall, with the interior rated as in ‘below average’ condition, the electrics, paintwork, and bodywork as ‘average’, and the engine and transmission as ‘good’ for the model’s indicated 53,500 miles. They note that paint has bubbled beneath the passenger door handle, and that the headlining has sagged.. Fitted with nearly new tyres all-round, ‘SF05 XZE’ is an excellent opportunity to own an important model in Aston Martin’s history, going to auction at no reserve.Offered at no reservePowered by Aston Martin’s 6.0-litre V12Desirable specification for the 2+2 coupeFirst shown at the 2003 Frankfurt Salon, Aston Martin’s DB9 was the successor to the firm’s long-serving DB7. It was penned by Ian Callum and Henrik Fisker, and was of all-aluminium construction. The newcomer was built around the Ford developed VH platform and powered by the 6.0-litre V12 unit previously found in the Vanquish. The first Aston to be built at the company’s Gaydon facility in Warwickshire, it was offered in both coupe and convertible guises, and was also successfully adapted for international sports car racing. Output when new was 450bhp, sufficient to power the coupe from rest to 60mph in 4.7 seconds and on to a top speed approaching 190mph, and was offered either with conventional six-speed manual gearbox or paddle-shift automatic transmission. The model remained in production until 2016, at which point it was replaced by the DB11.
Registration - R988 XARChassis No. - SAJJHAMD3CR822434M.O.T. - NoOdometer - 116,018This stealthy 1997 Jaguar XK8 Coupe is being offered at No Reserve. The vendor describes its condition as ‘good’ throughout, with an interior that “looks to be immaculate”. It features some custom upgrades, including a Jaguar ‘leaper’ on the bonnet, LED rear lights and, inside, orange piping for the black leather and Alcantara seats. There’s even a retro Motorola carphone in the centre console, and a factory-fit Harman Kardon stereo. ‘R988XAR’, which was registered in September 1997, has an odometer reading around 116,000 miles. It currently doesn’t have an MOT, simply because the vendor ran out of time to compete it. A model featuring the highly desirable Jaguar 4.0-litre V8, as identified by the ‘growler’ badge on the bonnet, this car presents an attainable way into modern classic Jaguar ownership with the appeal of No Reserve. The Jaguar XK8, known by marque aficionados as X100, was introduced in 1996 to revive the storied XK series. It was offered as a two-door coupe or convertible, powered by the all-new Jaguar AJ-V8 engine. Intriguingly, the architecture was derived from the Jaguar XJ-S and was related to the Aston Martin DB7 – both cars were based on a 1980s concept that never reached production. The beautiful styling referenced the original Jaguar E-type with a long bonnet and graceful lines, while the enchanting interior was a luxurious haven that reflected Jaguar’s range-topping aspirations for its new grand tourer. The model range was further developed with a high-performance supercharged Jaguar XKR version, and was later updated with an enlarged 4.2-litre engine. 1997 Jaguar XK8 offered at No ReserveFactory-fit Harman Kardon stereoPeriod Motorola carphone in the centre console

The Century derived its name from the 100th birthday of Sakichi Toyoda the founder of Toyota Industries. It is often used by the Imperial House of Japan, the Prime Minister of Japan, senior Japanese government leaders and high-level executive businessmen. The Century is comparable in purpose to the Cadillac Series 70, Mercedes-Benz 600 Series, Maybach, BMW Goldfisch, Bentley, Chinese Red Flag, Rolls-Royce, and Russian ZIS/ZIL limousines. While the Century is a premium, full-size luxury saloon, it is not available at Japanese Lexus dealerships; it can only be purchased at specifically identified Toyota Store locations. The exterior styling of the Century has, with some modifications, remained unchanged since its introduction, primarily due to its perception as denoting conservative success.This stunning example of the rare and desirable Century was first imported in August 2020 by a Toyota enthusiast and club member. Maintained very well this example passed just this year to our vendor who had always wanted to own the Japanese luxury car and has spent the summer with friends travelling in luxury.

EDGAR BRANDT (FRENCH, 1880-1960) A LARGE CONSOLE; CIRCA 1930 Wrought iron and black Portoro marble Stamped 'E.BRANDT / PARIS' 98cm high x 208.5cm wide x 54cm deep (3ft 2in. x 6ft 10in. x 1ft 9¼in.) Provenance: Sotheby's, Fine 20th Century Design, 2010, lot 86Literature: Pierre Kjellberg, Le Mobilier du XXe Siècle Dictionnaire des Créateurs, Paris, 1994, p. 94 Edgar Brandt (1880-1960) was a prominent French ironworker, metal designer, and a leading figure in the Art Deco movement. Known for his mastery of wrought iron, Brandt's work blended artistic elegance with technical innovation. He created exquisite decorative pieces such as grilles, gates, and balustrades, often incorporating floral motifs and geometric patterns characteristic of Art Deco. Brandt's designs, both functional and ornamental, gained international acclaim for their craftsmanship and modern aesthetic.This wrought iron console, which showcases Brandt's renowned craftsmanship, features intricate floral and geometric motifs that highlight the artist's ability to imbue strength and rigidity with a delicate, almost lyrical quality. The elegant scrolls, along with the decorative band that runs the length of the console, are characteristic of Brandt's style, which often blended naturalistic elements with the bold, geometric lines that defined Art Deco. The use of wrought iron, a material traditionally associated with architectural and utilitarian purposes, was transformed by Brandt into a medium for highly decorative and artistic creations. The black Portoro marble top, with its luxurious gold veining, adds a layer of opulence to the design, enhancing the overall aesthetic of the piece.Brandt's work was widely celebrated during his lifetime, with his ironwork featuring prominently at major international exhibitions, including the 1925 Paris Exposition des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes, where the term "Art Deco" was first coined.
