Victorian Auctions

The historic Leura Hotel at 175 Manifold Street, Camperdown in Victoria is the setting for Victorian Auctions latest sale from 11am Sunday November 18.

After being empty for six years, the hotel was bought from previous owner Dean Montgomery in May last year by colourful town character Lawrie Voutier.

With its iron lacework verandahs, the Victorian era hotel is the perfect venue for the Georgian, Victorian, Edwardian and art nouveau furniture the auction has to offer.

An 1840 cedar banquet extension dining table able to seat 12 to 16 people is one of the highlights of Victorian Auctions forthcoming auction from 11am Sunday August 26 at the old Leura Hotel, 175 Manifold Street, Camperdown, Victoria.

J.H. Scheltema’s Herding Cattle and David Boyd’s Children in Orchard are strong Australian paintings bound to interest art lovers.

The banquet dining table leads a comprehensive range of furniture including 20 sets of dining chairs – each set ranging from six to 10 in number – made from cedar, mahogany or rosewood.

A treasure trove of antiques, collectables and art will be up for grabs when the former owner of Portland’s Glenelg Auctions, Brian O’Halloran, auctions his private collection – amassed over 50 years – from 11am Sunday July 2 in his private residence at 390 Glenferrie Road, Malvern.

Now operating under the banner Victorian Auctions and Valuations, O'Halloran has spread items for auction throughout the large two-storey historic mansion, which features many unusual collectables.
