The top lot of the auction was sold the first day. This late Nineteenth Century Northwest Coast carved wooden beaver-form bowl, with a mellow old patina, measuring 4 by 10 inches, had a modest estimate of $900/1,200, but interest pushed the selling price up to $42,000.

EAST DENNIS, MASS. — Eldred’s annual fall Americana and paintings auction November 17–19 offered nearly 1,200 lots, led by a sensational carved Northwest Coast beaver-form bowl, offered on day one that attained $42,000, well over its modest $900–$1,200 estimate to make it the sale’s top lot overall.
This unsigned Chinese oil on canvas painting, Nineteenth Century, of the Hongs at Canton with Spanish, American, English and Dutch flags, measured 16 by 23½ inches. Verso is a label marked “Brought from China by Anson Burlingame Minister to China.” Interest drove the painting past its modest $8/12,000 estimate to $21,600.
Beautifully carved, with mellow patina, the bowl dates to the late Nineteenth Century. Bill Bourne, vice president of the firm and head of the Americana department, said of the bowl, “I loved it when it came in. It is a rare piece with great patina and unusual form, and it brought an incredibly good price.”
