The Ј6 million Chen Collection to be auctioned
We are delighted to be offering the important Chen Collection of works of art for auction. The sale will be in two parts; part 1 in London this winter and part 2 next spring. The single owner sale comprises a rare, fine and comprehensive collection of museum quality Russian and English silver. The collection, assembled over many years by Sinclair and Raye Heather Chen, also includes an exceptional range of Viennese enamels and rock crystal and a selection of oriental works of art.
Trevor Kyle, Director at Lyon & Turnbull and Silver Specialist said: “The Chens are collectors of great taste and vision. They have acquired exceptional works of art and have created an important collection, with many pieces of historical importance.”
The Part 1 sale will be held at the Caledonian Club, Belgravia, London on the 23rd November 2008, comprising the important Russian and English silver. Part 2, which will follow in spring 2009, will include the fine Viennese enamels and rock crystal, Asian and European works of art, and European carved ivories.
Sinclair and Raye Heather Chen, based in Hong Kong, have developed a lasting interest and appreciation of fine art. Mrs. Chen said: “When we got married, we began to share a life and love for nature, the arts, music and the talent that created them.”
She continued “Throughout our journey we have collected works which are a reflection of the things that we love and of our life together. It is difficult to part with them. However we are only custodians of these beautiful things and we are happy with the thought that someone else will cherish them as much as we have
