A COACH FROM THE ROYAL BRITISH MEWS OFFERED AT BONHAMS SALE


 
A COACH FROM THE ROYAL BRITISH
MEWS OFFERED AT BONHAMS SALE
 
      
 
 
An ex-Royal British Mews Landau Coach commissioned by King William IV and once featured in a collection described by Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, as “the pride of North America”, is among the highlights of Bonhams Carriage Collection sale, taking place in Oxford on 7 March.
 
Painstakingly assembled by a European industrialist, the privately owned Carriage Collection contains more than 150 lots, with some dating back to the 17th century. Never before exhibited, the Bonhams Sale will be the first time the collection is available for public view, with several lots coming to auction for the first time.
 
Built by prestigious coachbuilders Adams & Hooper, King William IV’s coach leads the sale with an estimate of £200,000-300,000.Travelling Landaus were used by the nobility on extended tours throughout Britain and Continental Europe, and it is believed that the carriage would have been used by trusted representatives and possibly the King himself when undertaking long journeys.
 
"During the past 30 years this fascinating collection has been lovingly maintained and painstakingly restored - and occasionally used in international carriage competition - by their Dutch owner,” said Rob Hubbard, Bonhams Motoring Specialist. “It’s quite rare for such a vast single-owner collection of this quality to come to market, so it has attracted some great international attention.”
