''White Glove Sale''

''A white glove sale is an auction house’s dream scenario. This term—which refers to the white gloves worn by auction staff to handle artworks—is granted to a sale where every single item on the block finds a buyer''. 

They don't happen very often but the Plas Teg: Principal House & Garden Contents auction was one such occasion. With every lot of the 400 lots in the sale finding new homes. A great success and testament to our auction team and partners who have managed to clear the historic house and sell most lots within the necessary timescale. Hats off....

...and white gloves on! It just so happens that Lot 53 in the auction featured two pairs of white gloves, perhaps it was written in the stars!
