103 A Patu Aruhe, Aotearoa

Large early fernroot beater. This patu aruhe is a fine example with a bulbous body, slender handle, and smaller bulb terminating at the base of the handle. Produced from hardwood, patu aruhe were employed to process the edible flesh from the rauaruhe or bracken fern. This example would have been stored in a swamp between use to prevent it from rotting or falling into enemy hands. Swamp storage has lead to a rich dark and varied patina that covers the entire piece. Presented on a museum grade stand. Pounder H330 W90mm, on stand H290 D100mm

87 A Large Hei Tiki, Aotearoa

Superb early Māori pounamu tiki of chiefly proportions. This hei tiki displays a masterful level of workmanship, deep inset eyes, head tilted aggressively to the left and protruding ribcage. A matt-like patina envelops the taonga that has been worked from dark green pounamu. The style of this tiki suggests that it was constructed from an early adze that had probably reached the end of its working life with its straight sides and slight taper to legs. Some Māori believe the tiki to represent the first man created by the atua Tāne. This large rare example with well worn countersunk suspension hole is presented on a museum grade stand.

est $18,000 — $28,000

72 A Rare Kahu Kiwi Cloak, Aotearoa

This kiwi feather cloak is made from muka fibre that has been painstakingly woven by hand in the single-pair twinning technique. The 30mm border to each side ends of this cloak features black and red wool threads woven in a diamond pattern. The upper edge of the cloak has a black and red wool twisted detail. The lower edge of the cloak has remnants of a black dyed muka tāniko pattern, possibly a niho taniwha design. The feathers have been woven individually in to the muka in rows approximately 10mm apart. There are some small sections of losses to the feathers, but an overall lush density remains intact. A later addition to the cloak is a rich purple brocade fabric sewn to the interior of the cloak. This is likely an addition by a previous custodian to protect the muka from stress. 1090 x 1300mm

41 A Heru Māpara, Aotearoa

This example is constructed with two robust side poles that flank the inner, more fragile teeth, fine flax binding and richly patinated through use and age. Presented on a custom museum stand.

102 An 1837 New Testament Bible in Te Reo

A rare early missionary New Zealand printed bible. Teaching Māori to write began in 1816 and within two generations over 80% of Māori were literate in their own language. In 1834, under the direction of William Colenso, a printing press was setup at the mission in the Bay of Islands. Colenso began producing various biblical texts in Māori and by 1837 the entire New Testament was printed. This partial bound publication represents a rare surviving example from the early Mission Press at Paihia. Still bound in its coarse mission school cloth binding, this text contains the book of John, Acts and Romans. Some damage to pages 121/122, bookplate to frontage for Guy N. Morris. Presented on a museum grade stand. H210 W140, on stand H230mm

est $1,000 — $1,500

122 A Mutu Kākā, Aotearoa

Early 19th century bird snare perch in orthodox form. Made from a single piece of wood, this robust example has been left largely undecorated. Mutu kākā were used primarily in hunting parrots which were an important food source to early Māori. Native birds, such as kererē, kākā, and tūī were greatly valued by the Māori as sources of food, bones for tools, feathers for prestigious ornaments such as cloaks, or pets, hence bird catching was considered as a revered activity. The mutu kākā, or bird snare perch, lured birds by way of a looped snare connected to the device, attached to a tree branch and baited with berries. When a bird alighted on the perch, the looped snare was tugged, trapping the bird against the upright and preventing it from flying away. H240 W45 D310mm, on stand H250mm

artist's signature and date. 110 x 300mm Adopted into a Pakeha family and told he was Māori (which led him to study traditional Māori carving), Charteris later discovered he was of Kiribati, Fijian and English descent.

A Complete Set of Three Official Publications of Cook's Voyages in Second Editions Including the First Voyage 1773, Second Voyage 1777, Third Voyage 1785 with Atlas Cook, Captain James (by John Hawkesworth)

First Voyage

2nd edition, 3 Volumes, frontis. map: "Chart of the Part of the South Sea" chart torn. London, W. Strahan & T. Cadell, 1773

Cook, Captain James

Second Voyage

A Voyage towards the South Pole and Round the World performed in his Majesty's Ship the Resolution and Adventure, in the years 1772, 1773, 1774 and 1775.

Third Voyage

A Voyage to the Pacific Ocean. Undertaken by the command of His Majesty, for making discoveries in the Northern Hemisphere. Performed under the direction of Captains Cook, Clerke, and Gore, in His

Majesty's ships the Resolution and Discovery in the years 1776, 1777, 1778, 1779, and 1780. Vols I & Il written by Captain James Cook, Vol III by Captain James King 2nd edition, 3 Volumes, full leather, spine gilt, lettering piece to spine.

London, H. Hughs for C. Nicol, 1785

The second edition is preferred to the first edition for a number of reasons, the most obvious difference is the use on the title-pages of the text volumes of engraved vignettes of the Royal Society medal (in volumes 1 and 2) and of an oval medallion portrait of Captain King (in volume 3). The medal was awarded to Cook posthumously by the prestigious Royal Society in 1784, shortly after publication of the first edition of this book. This second quarto edition was printed by H. Hughs - rather than W. and A. Strahan who had printed the first edition - with the wording of the title-pages slightly modified and the text itself entirely reset.

126 An Important Songye Nkisi Community Power Figure, Democratic Republic of Congo

19th century. Songye power figures such as this are used to fight witchcraft and sorcery. Their function is socially benign — they protect, heal, and counteract evil. The power of the figure resides not in its sculptural form or aesthetics, but in the magical substances embedded in cavities formed in the abdomen, or in the horn that projects from the head. The power of these figures may also be embellished with the addition of metals. Here the figure stands above an iron ring which, in addition to preventing encroachment by rodents, may also offer additional spiritual protective powers. Ritual specialists create two general types of power figure — small ones for an individual or family for household use, and larger more powerful ones used for the community at large. This figure is of the latter type, intended to be used publicly for the village. H1020 W270 D290mm

Huli Sing Sing

2013. Southern Highlands, Papua New Guinea. Photographic C-Type print, archival. Signed edition 2 of 5. Frame 810 x 600mm

The Huli of Papua New Guinea live in a land of rugged mountains, dense rainforests and fertile valleys. Uncontacted by Europeans until the 1930s, their way of life differs little from what the first missionaries encountered. They are one of the last remaining Papua New Guinean tribes that still wear traditional dress.

The Huli take great pride in their personal appearance and are known for their elaborately decorated hairpieces. The collection of hair for wigs starts at an early age, involving magical spells, ritualistic water sprinkles, and special wooden pillows. Once a young man's hair grows to a certain length, it is cut off to make a wig and the process is repeated.

One of the most important elements of Huli society is the sing-sing, a colourful celebration or gathering. The Huli often perform the Bird of Paradise dance in which men jump slightly off the ground in unison imitating the bird. Preparation for a sing-sing is a lengthy affair that often takes hours as ceremonial wigs are donned, feathers are added, hornbill necklaces are adjusted, and body makeup is smeared. The photographer, Guy Needham is noted for his work with indigenous tribes, primarily drawing on themes of identity and place within cultural narratives. His images have been exhibited in New York, London, Paris, Berlin, Barcelona and Tokyo, and have been seen on the pages of National Geographic Traveller, SUITCASE Magazine, and the Royal Photographic Society's Journal.

27 PHOTOGRAPHER UNKNOWN The Motor Sledge of Mr. C Jones

A Motor Sledge designed by Mr. C Jones of Fairley, New Zealand

NFT, Ethereum blockchain. ERC-721 token.

Inspired by the visit of Captain Scott's Terra Nova Expedition to Lyttleton some 18 months earlier, Fairley local Mr. C Jones design, patented, and built a motor sledge.

Jones’ design was exceptional, leading Lieutenant Gran from The British Antarctic Expedition to state, "Compared with the motor sledges used on Captain Scott’s Expedition, the new invention is a machine of much greater speed. It is far lighter and less expensive. I should think this sledge would be well worth trying in polar expeditions."

As fate would have it, the remarkable sledge seen in this image would not see action in polar regions, but was instead used to tow skiers around Fairley and Mt Cook.

This image has been generated from the original glass plate negative. The initial purchaser of this NFT will also receive the glass plate and a framed contact print. In addition two pieces of stationary, one carried on Captain Scott's Discovery expedition, the other on Captain Scott's Terra Nova expedition.

Hadzabe Leader

2018. Lake Eyasi region, Tanzania. Photographic C-type print, archival. Signed edition 3 of 5. Framed 600 x 810mm

The Hadzabe tribe is considered the last true huntergatherers in Africa, a tribe so old that National Geographic calls them "the closest living relatives of the humans who first left Africa to migrate to the rest of the world."

Their life has not changed much over the past millennia. The Hadzabe continue to live as subsistence nomads; they are the only tribe permitted to hunt in the Serengeti. They still speak the same Hadzane language – a throaty mixture of words and rhythmic clicks – and as the Hadzabe don't read or write, all traditions and teachings are passed on orally.

There is no chief of the Hadzabe; each group has a leader who is usually the most experienced hunter. The leader's responsibilities include maintaining the group's harmony. Because there is no hierarchy, any disputes are resolved by one party apologising. If a Hazda man does not admit fault despite evidence to the contrary, the most extreme punishment is taking away his bow.

In the dry season of 2018, the photographer spent time with a group of families in a boma (shelter under a rock ledge) observing them hunt, cook and live in their unforgiving environment.

The photographer, Guy Needham is noted for his work with indigenous tribes, primarily drawing on themes of identity and place within cultural narratives. His images have been exhibited in New York, London, Paris, Berlin, Barcelona and Tokyo, and have been seen on the pages of National Geographic Traveller, SUITCASE Magazine, and the Royal Photographic Society's Journal.

Hamar First Wife

2015. Lower Valley of the Omo, Ethiopia. Photography C-type print, archival. Signed 3 of 5. Frame 600 x 810mm In Ethiopia lies the Lower Valley of the Omo, a great swathe of sweeping landscapes and native bush. It is here where the Hamar live, one of the most unique indigenous peoples in the world with a strong, vibrant culture. The Hamar, like many other subsistence tribes, still have traditional roles for men and women. The men protect and decide, while the women are the heavy lifters; carrying back-bending loads of firewood and sorghum. Hamar men may marry more than one woman and the first wife is pre-arranged, requiring payment of goats and cattle to the bride's family. Unique to first wives, such as the one pictured here, is a leather necklace with a metallic protrusion symbolising fertility.

Terms and Conditions

1. Background to the Terms used in these Conditions

The conditions that are listed below contain terms that are used regularly and may need explanation. They are as follows:

“the Buyer” means the person with the highest bid accepted by the Auctioneer.

“the Lot” means any item depicted within the sale for auction and in particular the item or items described against any lot number in the catalogue.

“the Hammer price” means the amount of the highest bid accepted by the auctioneer in relation to a lot.

“the Buyer’s Premium” means the charge payable by the Buyer to the auction house as a percentage of the hammer price.

“the Reserve” means the lowest amount at which Webb’s has agreed with the Seller that the lot can be sold.

“Forgery” means an item constituting an imitation originally conceived and executed as a whole, with a fraudulent intention to deceive as to authorship, origin, age, period, culture or source, where the correct description as to such matters is not reflected by the description in the catalogue. Accordingly, no lot shall be capable of being a forgery by reason of any damage or restoration work of any kind (Including re-painting).

“the insured value” means the amount that Webb’s in its absolute discretion from time to time shall consider the value for which a lot should be covered for insurance (whether or not insurance is arranged by Webb’s).

All values expressed in Webb’s catalogues (in any format) are in New Zealand Dollars (NZD$). All bids, “hammer price”, “reserves”, “Buyers Premium” and other expressions of value are understood by all parties to be in New Zealand Dollars (NZD$) unless otherwise specified.

2. Webb’s Auctions as Agent

Except as otherwise stated, Webb’s acts as agent for the Seller.

The contract for the sale of the property is therefore made between the Seller and the Buyer.

3. Before the Sale

3.1. Examination of Property

Prospective Buyers are strongly advised to examine in person any property in which they are interested before the Auction takes place.

Neither Webb’s nor the Seller provides any guarantee in relation to the nature of the property apart from the Limited warranty in the paragraph below.

The property is otherwise sold “AS IS”

2. Catalogue and Other Descriptions

All statements by Webb’s in the catalogue entry for the property or in the condition report, or made orally or in writing elsewhere, are statements of opinion and are not to be relied upon as statements of fact. Such statements do not constitute a representation, warranty or assumption of liability by Webb’s of any kind. References in the catalogue entry to the condition report to damage or restoration are for guidance only and should be evaluated by personal inspection by the bidder or a knowledgeable representative. The absence of such a reference does not imply that an item is free from defects or restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of any others. Estimates of the selling price should not be relied on as a statement that this is the price at which the item will sell or its value for any other purpose. Neither Webb’s nor The Seller is responsible for any errors or omissions in the catalogue or any supplemental material.

Images are measured height by width (sight size). Illustrations are provided only as a guide and should not be relied upon as a true representation of colour or condition. Images are not shown at a standard scale. Mention is rarely made of frames (which may be provided as supplementary images on the website) which do not form part of the lot as described in the printed catalogue.

An item bought “on Extension” must be paid for in full before it will be released to the purchaser or his/ her agreed expertising committee or specialist. Payments received for such items will be held “in trust” for up to 90 days or earlier, if the issue of authenticity has been resolved more quickly. Extensions must be requested before the auction.

Foreign buyers should note that all transactions are in New Zealand Dollars so there may be a small exchange rate risk. The costs associated with acquiring a good opinion or certificate will be carried by the purchaser. If the item turns out to be forged or otherwise incorrectly described, all reasonable costs will be borne by the vendor.

3. Buyers Responsibility

All property is sold “as is” without

representation or warranty of any kind by Webb’s or the Seller. Buyers are responsible for satisfying themselves concerning the condition of the property and the matters referred to in the catalogue by requesting a condition report.

4.1. Refusal of Admission

Webb’s reserves the right at our complete discretion to refuse admission to the auction premises or participation in any auction and to reject any bid.

4.3. Bidding as a Principal

4.4. International Registrations

All International clients not known to Webb’s will be required to scan or fax through an accredited form of photo identification and pay a deposit at our discretion in cleared funds into Webb’s account at least 24 hours before the commencement of the auction. Bids will not be accepted without this deposit. Webb’s also reserves the right to request any additional forms of identification prior to registering an overseas bid. This deposit can be made using a credit card, however the balance of any purchase price in excess of $5,000 cannot be charged to this card without prior arrangement. This deposit is redeemable against any auction purchase and will be refunded in full if no purchases are made.

4.5. Absentee Bids

Webb’s will use reasonable efforts to execute written bids delivered to us AT LEAST 24 Hours before the sale for the convenience of those clients who are unable to attend the auction in person. If we receive identical written bids on a particular lot, and at the auction these are the highest bids on that lot, then the lot will be sold to the person whose written bid was received and accepted first. Execution of written bids is a free service undertaken subject to other commitments at the time of the sale and we do not accept liability for failing to execute a written bid or for errors or omissions which may arise. It is the bidder’s responsibility to check with Webb’s after the auction if they were successful. Unlimited or “Buy” bids will not be accepted.

4.6. Telephone Bids

Priority will be given to overseas and bidders from other regions. Please refer to the catalogue for the Telephone Bids form. Arrangements for this service must

be confirmed AT LEAST 24 HOURS PRIOR to the auction commencing. Webb’s accepts no responsibility whatsoever for any errors or failure to execute bids.

4.8. Reserves

Unless otherwise indicated, all lots are offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum price below which the Lot will not be sold. The reserve will not exceed the low estimate printed in the catalogue. The auctioneer may open the bidding on any Lot below the reserve by placing a bid on behalf of the Seller. The auctioneer may continue to bid on behalf of seller up to the amount of the reserve, either by placing consecutive bids or by placing bids in response to other bidders.

4.9. Auctioneers Discretion

The Auctioneer has the right at his/ her absolute and sole discretion to refuse any bid, to advance the bidding in such a manner as he/she may decide, to withdraw or divide any lot, to combine any two or more lots and, in the case or error or dispute and whether during or after the sale, to determine the successful bidder, to continue the bidding, to cancel the sale or to reoffer and resell the item in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, then Webb’s sale record is conclusive.

4.10.

Successful Bid and Passing of Risk

Subject to the auctioneer’s discretion, the highest bidder accepted by the auctioneer will be the buyer and the striking of his hammer marks the acceptance of the highest bid and the conclusion of a contract for sale between the Seller and the Buyer.
