Clarice Cliff Teacup Collection for London Auction
Published August 22nd, 2008
The collection, of over 100 teacups, estimated at £25,000, will be offered in a Bonhams sale of Design 1860-1945 on Tuesday 23 September 2008.
It is thought to be the largest collection of Clarice Cliff teacups to have come up for sale. Each tea cup will be estimated between £100-600. The collection is the result of one owner’s collecting over a period of approximately fifty years.
Natalie Evison, Bonhams specialist of Decorative Arts says “Clarice Cliff was a pioneer in her work, her fresh and innovative designs were well ahead of their time during the 1920s and 30s’. Cliff’s designs have steadily increased in value since her death in 1972. These highly sought after pieces are perhaps only set to grow in value so possibly the perfect time to buy.”
