HARROGATE SALVAGE SHOW CANCELLED
Joan Porter from the ATG reports that, 'Arthur Swallow's previously announced new specialist fair, the two-day Restoration and Salvage Show, to be launched at the Harrogate Show-ground on September 11 and 12, has unfortunately been cancelled.
Arthur Swallow director Richard Burgoin said, "The contracts were signed, the publicity posters and advertising were out, and we had nearly half of the 100 maximum bookings, but unfortunately there were a lot of difficulties at the show-ground, many of the unforeseen. But we are very committed to holding this fair next year in the North of England, somewhere near Harrogate, as there is nothing like this in the north and we think it will be a real draw."
Richard stressed that he s not in competition with the annual Salvo Fair held at Knebworth Park and for his part Thornton Kay of Salvo takes the "more the merrier" view about another architectural salvage fair in the calendar.

![Duke of Devonshire with some of the items up for sale [photo. The Financial Times] Duke of Devonshire with some of the items up for sale [photo. The Financial Times]](http://www.salvoweb.com/images/userimgs/29428/Duke-of-Devonshire-with-some-of-the-items-up-for-sale-photo-The-Financial-Times-_54235_1_240.jpg) THE DUKE OF DEVONSHIRE'S 3-DAY AUCTION AT SOTHEBY'S
The Duke of Devonshire, one of the UK's wealthiest aristocrats, is planning to auction unwanted items found in storage at Chatsworth, his stately home in Derbyshire.
Maev Kennedy of the Guardian reports that, 'for over two hundred years, the Dukes of Devonshire called a splendid, William Kent-designed London mansion home. When Devonshire House, as it was known, was razed in 1925 the family removed much of the mansion's contents, its pictures, furnishing, and many of its architectural elements, to the even more imposing, 300-room Chatsworth in Derbyshire. Since that time, much of this loot has sat in Chatsworth's vast attics, along with relics from others of their houses. This October, in a three-day sale at Chatsworth, Sotheby's will sell 20,000 of these items in 1400 lots expected to bring $3.8 million. The Duke needs the space, he explained.
The items to be auctioned at Chatsworth at the start of October include architectural salvage of the highest order: large chunks of Devonshire House, the London seat of the duke's ancestors, which was demolished in the 1920s. Star lots include a "magnificent" carved white marble chimney piece from 1735 by architect William Kent, priced at £200,000 to £300,000.
Among the sale's more unusual offerings is a huge bookcase, estimated to fetch as much as $120,000 that concealed a secret passage to a room off the nursery in which the future George IV conducted an illicit affair. The breadth of the sale is a window into the scale and opulence with which Britain's uber-rich aristocracy has lived. It's also a nod to the work of William Kent, who designed much of the ornamentation being offered. "The sale will provide a unique opportunity to acquire examples of the work of one of England's greatest architects," says Sotheby's Harry Dalmeny. It is, he added, "an opportunity that is unlikely ever to be repeated."

Retrouvius have enticed new designers Fabien Cappello and Daniel Heath, to their salvage yard in Kensal Green, London, for an exhibition which will run from 21 September until 2 October, 2010. According to the Retrouvius website the aim of the exhibition is to 'explore and expand our re-use philosophy'.
The designers brief is to interpret three salvaged materials. 'From our Heathrow Derbyshire fossil stone Fabien is hoping to create a "stone throne". Inspired by the memories, the hellos and goodbyes taken by the 319 million people as they traversed the Terminal 2 concourse. Thin oak shingles are currently being rejoined and pegged to form a wall of openings. Delicate Meranti parquet from the 1950s is coming off the floor and being transformed to make extruded desks and tables.'

 GAZE RURAL & DOMESTIC BYGONES
Held on 31 July at 10am, Roydon Road, Diss, Norfolk.
Carl Willows of Gaze Auctioneers said, "Bygones sale again attracted a huge audience, gathered from around the country and abroad. Highlights were treen, some nice early pieces including a rare 18th Century Davis's quadrant selling at £1376. Lowlights were enamel signs despite some early examples. A French cast iron and enamelled stove which had failed to sell at £250 in the last Architectural sale this time made £458. Among more traditional 'Bygones' an Edwardian copper washing machine took £252, a display of poaching equipment £230, Norfolk fen land duck gun £206 and two Quorn custard tins £126. All quickly cleared out ready for Architectural items flooding in for next sale 21st August."

 VINTAGE FAIR AT GOODWOOD
If you have not yet heard, you soon will. Wayne Hemingway has nobbled a nob, Lord March, and a group of vintage worthies to put on a three day, mainly vintage fashion and music, fair at Goodwood near Chichester in October.

 CHATSWORTH £2.5M CLEAR OUT AUCTION IN OCTOBER
The Duke of Devonshire, a member of the Cavendish family, which has been one of the richest and most influential aristocratic families in England since the 16th century, is selling off items found in storage at Chatsworth House at a Sotheby's auction in October. Architectural salvage appears to be the main focus, with lots including many large items from Devonshire House which was the family's London house and was demolished in the 1920's. One lot is a 1735 William Kent carved white marble chimneypiece priced at £200,000 to £300,000. The sale will take place in the grounds of Chatsworth House with well over 1,000 lots at an estimated value of £2.5m.
Susan Moore of the FT writes, 'The real excitement of this sale, however, is the rediscovery of architectural salvage on a grand scale - fixtures and fittings removed from the family's various residences over the centuries. There is 15th-century Gothic tracery, presumably from Bolton Abbey, plus quantities of William and Mary fire surrounds, doors, doorcases, frames, appliqués and the like that were victims of the constant remodelling at Chatsworth.
Most spectacular of all are the pieces - including most of the library - from Devonshire House, designed by William Kent in the 1730s, a pile that stretched from Green Park to Berkeley Square. Untouched for almost a century in the dusty, atmospheric old granary in the stable block, these have proved a hidden treasure trove. Dismantled and removed before the house was demolished, each chimneypiece had been stored in pieces, practically but unhelpfully classified according to size. The heroine of this tale was Evelyn, ninth duchess, who had each constituent part labelled. Using these labels, inventories and old photographs of the interiors, Sotheby's experts have heroically pieced together a monumental jigsaw, in effect recreating the interiors of the lost house. The sale is a dream for architectural historians - and a house restorer's heaven.'

 TENTH SALVO FAIR VISITOR NUMBERS
Official visitor numbers at Salvo Fair 2010 were 4,828. This amounts to 300 people less than Salvo 2009. The decrease was caused by the England football match on Sunday which meant the fair site was very quiet from around 2pm. However, there was a thirty percent increase in ticket sales on the gate on Saturday. On the Salvo stand, wooden wine boxes from The Wine Society, Stevenage were sold to raise money for Medecins Sans Frontieres. Contributions towards Saturday night's hog roast were also donated bringing the total raised to £366. Big thank you's all round.

 TUESDAY 11 SEPTEMBER 2007: CEASAR HUT TO BE AUCTIONED FOR CHARITY
Dear Salvo,
We have an original 19th century Caesar hut that we are donating to auction in hope of raising funds for an eco-project run by local school children. We discovered the wooden hut during a garden clearance. It was built over 100 years ago by Knutsford carpenter Henry Caesar and his son Julius.
The auction will take place on the 11th September and is being held by Marshall's Auctioneers, Knutsford, Cheshire, who are auctioning the hut free of charge.
The eco project is like a mini-version of the Eden Project in Cornwall and we are hoping to raise £7000 for Sandiway Primary School towards this. We feel it is a more than worthy cause as it gives the children a great opportunity to be part of something unique in the county and therefore it would be greatly appreciated if anybody could donate or bid. We can accept payments via Paypal and cheque.
If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Regards,
PAST
