Auction: Fashion, Costume and Textiles, 22nd May, 2026
Colourful textiles from around the world will star in the sale, with the first part of a large collection of 19th century Indian turbans, an array of traditional silk robes, skirts and fans, notable amongst which is a Pair of Early 20th Century Chinese Face Screens or Palace Fans and an unusual Early 20th Century Mint Green Woven Silk Chinese Robe.
The sale will also feature the Eileen Baker Collection; Eileen Baker of Scotland is an avid collector, who purchased her first item of antique costume in her late teens from a stall in Grainger Market, Newcastle, sixty-two years ago. Continuing to buy throughout her life, she amassed a varied collection of costume and accessories from the 18th to 20th centuries, part of which is now going under the hammer. A second Private Collection of 1920s to 1940s Costume will feature stylish ladies’ day and evening wear and accessories.
Amongst the collector’s items in the sale is a selection of antique and good modern doll’s house furniture, and one of the most unusual items in the sale is an Early 20th Century German Father Christmas Clockwork Automaton.
