Amazing Auction @ Burrawang, Southern Highlands

Are you in need of some amazing furniture? - or just want some eye candy? Keep on reading!


Remember we went to Burrawang on the long weekend and stayed at our friend's holiday house? Well this coming weekend around the corner from their house is an onsite auction run by Lawsons. As soon as I heard about it I emailed my friend as there are some fabulous items being auctioned but would you believe it this is one weekend they are not going down to the Southern Highlands. So I thought I may as well let you all in on the auction and show you some of the amazing items to be had.


Auctions are a fantastic way to buy furniture and art.  Most of the people there are bidding to buy for their shops and so have a limit on what they can spend as they need to resell and still make a decent profit. If you are buying for yourself you can always out bid these buyers and still grab a bargain when compared to buying the same item from a shop.

Date: 24 Jun 2012 
12:00 noon
Location: 35 Hoddle St. Burrawang, Southern Highlands


Here are some of the fabulous items for auction. 
I love the leather couch and chairs below.

Leather Club Lounge and matching club chairs


2 cast iron wall fountains - I love the verdigris one on the left.


Industrial Wall Clock
vintage globe

A vintage oak champagne riddling rack
8 Antique English Dining Chairs in Cuban Mahogany

Vintage enamel scales with weights

Can't go past a good ginger jar

and I would love to own one of these David Bromley Nudes. (acrylic and silver leaf on canvas and linen, all signed). He is one of my favourite Australian artists. See his website here.  Aren't they stunning!




If you want to bid and can't make it down to Burrawang this weekend you can always put in an absentee bid. Details on the website above.

So will anybody be making a little trip to the Southern Highlands this weekend?

cheers 
Fiona
